<p><strong>DESCRIPTION</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Once applied to the garment, it can be sublimated by following the steps of this technique</li>
<li>Sublicotton is a water-based coating that integrates very well into the fabric. It does not crack and has a soft feel</li>
<li>No screen printing machines are required to apply the base coat</li>
<li>Complies with Oeko-Tex Standard 100 (II), which certifies that it does not contain heavy metals such as lead, mercury or nickel</li>
</ul>
<p> </p>
<p><a name="know-more2"></a></p>
<p><strong>THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Not suitable for synthetic fibres</li>
<li>The dark cotton base coat is two-component. It must be mixed with the supplied powder agent (Ecocharge NF SumiPrint)</li>
<li>Once ready, it will last for about <strong>6 hours</strong> </li>
<li>Apply only a thin layer of Sublicotton to the garment. This will maintain the flexibility and softness of the fabric</li>
<li>You must cure the coating. You can use a curing oven, heat press or flash dryer</li>
<li>It is recommended to run tests before production</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE ON LIGHT COTTON<br></strong></p>
<p><strong>Step 1: Apply the coating<br></strong></p>
<ul>
<li>The fabric must be clean and lint free</li>
<li>Prepare the screen printing screen with the design you want to print</li>
<li>Place the screen on the garment</li>
<li>Add enough coating on the screen to cover the print area</li>
<li>Push down <strong>3 times</strong> with the squeegee, scraping off the excess</li>
<li>Dry the counting according to the curing parameters specified in the previous section</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Step 2: Sublimation <br></strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Print the design in <strong>mirror image</strong> using sublimation paper</li>
<li>Place the printed paper with the design on top of the coating</li>
<li>Press at <span class="azul-negrita">200ºC</span> with <strong>medium-high pressure</strong> for <span class="azul-negrita">40 seconds</span></li>
</ul>
<p> </p>

<p><strong>INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE ON DARK COTTON</strong></p>
<p><strong>Step 1: Apply the coating<br></strong></p>
<ul>
<li>The fabric must be clean and lint free</li>
<li>Prepare the screen printing screen with the design you want to print</li>
<li>Prepare the mixture:<span class="azul-negrita"> 5 g</span> of powder agent per <span class="azul-negrita">100 g</span> of coating. Only as much as you are going to use</li>
<li>Let the mixture rest for <span class="azul-negrita">15 minutes</span> and stir again</li>
<li>Place the screen on the garment</li>
<li>Add enough coating on the screen to cover the print area</li>
<li>Push down <strong>3 times</strong> with the squeegee, scraping off the excess</li>
<li>Dry the counting according to the curing parameters specified in the previous section</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Step 2: Sublimation <br></strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Print the design in <strong>mirror image</strong> using sublimation paper</li>
<li>Place the printed paper with the design on top of the coating</li>
<li>Press at <span class="azul-negrita">200ºC</span> with <strong>medium-high pressure</strong> for <span class="azul-negrita">45 seconds</span></li>
</ul>
<p> </p>
<p><a name="know-more6"></a></p>
<p><strong>RECOMMENDATIONS</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Keep the coating tub closed and stored below <span class="azul-negrita">35ºC</span>, away from direct or indirect heat sources</li>
<li>Once opened, use it as soon as possible</li>
<li>Work in ventilated areas using personal protection elements like gloves, goggles or mask</li>
<li>Do not add any additives other than those supplied by the supplier</li>
</ul>
