Hello i am struggling understanding what 10-20% of the weight . Do you guys have a video of making the mix?

[@Ryonet]

No worries at all, you'll just need to pick up a gram scale! Tare the weight of your container, then add your ink, then tare again and add 10-20% of your ink weight. I'll work on a video for you!

Thank you so much

Can I use the FN puff additive with wilflex ink?

[@Ryonet]

Hi @Alan Phung! you certainly can experiment with it. However, FN-INK has that lower cure temp, including the PUFF. The cure temp of LAVA may be too hot for the FN-INK PUFF.

great video thanks

Oh so washing a puff print, and seeing if it stays or falls out is a good indication of how it cured?

[@Ryonet]

Hi! after cure and a rest period to let the ink completely cool down, you can do a gentle rub test and a small stretch test (puff doesn't stretch well) to see if the ink layer is stable. However - A wash test is closest to a gold standard for testing.

Very informative! I only have a flash dryer - is it possible to achieve the same results without a drying belt?

[@Ryonet]

For sure! You just gotta keep a watchful eye on it and record your times to keep it consistent 🤙

Do you use a stretch base with puff

[@soontoberich82]

Can you use puff additive when making plastisol heat transfer? Or will the pressure from the heat press keep the ink from rising?

[@Ryonet]

Hi @Richard Effingham. Great question. I believe that it would get smashed in the heat press. you may get a very small amount of loft. Hope that helps.

Can a smoothing screen be used when doing white on black

[@Ryonet]

Yes, absolutely!

[@chaos88blade]

Can we do this on an auto press? Or is this a better off on a manual press? This definitely is something I'd love try here in the States

[@Ryonet]

Good morning @carsen howell. you can do this on either. Honestly hinges more on cure temp and the cure temp of all your other inks in the print.

can i use a flash dryer for the whole cure process?

[@Ryonet]

It can be done! There are important variables to consider when curing with a flash. Check out Colin's tips and tricks here... www.screenprinting.com/blogs/news/how-to-cure-via-flashing

Can Puff additive be added to Silver metallic ink?

[@Ryonet]

Hi! Yes you can add puff to FN Silver, but when it puffs you can loose more or less of the silver reflection. The puff can cover up a lot of the flake that gives you the silver look. Alternately, you can print puff under the silver and that will allow you to keep much more of the silver metallic effect.

Too much information without any demonstration
