Reduction and cleaning

Recommended reducers: the Normal, Fast and Slow thinner system for the Primfren line, according to drying needs and working viscosity. To lower intensity, use Primfren Reducing Varnish.

Clean the machine with the same thinners used as reducers. For deep cleaning of anilox rollers, use Limpianilox 61-1038 or 61-1039.

Storage and packaging

Store under normal humidity and temperature conditions.

20 kg pails or 200 kg drums.

Please note: Frozen goods: check shades and special resistance requirements (especially humidity) with our technical team before finalizing your selection.
