  Using Easy Lack® Single
Plate Substitute


Instructions
  1. Clean Plate
    It is important to use a perfectly clean offset plate. Wipe surface with a film cleaner or alcohol to remove any residue.


  2. Prep Plate
    Prepare your plate as you normally would. It is very important to make sure that no gum Arabic or any foreign substances remain on the plate.


  3. Avoid Air Bubbles
    When applying Easy LackŪ Single to the plate, make sure that no air bubbles remain, which could distort the uniformity of the coating application.


  4. Cut Away Extraneous Areas
    After the Easy LackŪ Single has been properly affixed to the plate, any areas that will not require coating should be cut and removed. This can be done with a sharp knife or blade.


  5. Secure Edges
    After you have removed the Easy LackŪ Single from the non-coated areas, press down those edges to ensure a permanent bond. For long runs, it is recommended to seal all cut edges with clear fingernail polish.


  6. Engage Press
    Before you begin to coat or varnish, the press should be engaged on impression to allow the material to anchor itself to the plate. This will also remove any air bubbles that remain.


  7. Plate Storage
    When storing the plate after use, the following procedures should be followed:

    > To clean after aqueous coating use ammonia and water.

    > When varnish or UV coating is used, a slightly dampened rag with solvent should be used. Be careful not to let solvent attack the adhesive on Easy LackŪ Single plate.

    > Cover plate with paper and keep away from ambient light until used again.

    > Be sure to store the unused Easy LackŪ Single in its original package.

    > Store all Easy LackŪ Single away from heat and direct light.
