*Please note: Unlike the rest of the Aqua Art Ink range (which are archivable and have high light fast pigments), the Aqua Art fluorescent range, when exposed to direct sunlight or bright LED or incandescent lighting, can fade over time. Fluorescent inks do not have good light fastness and should be used with caution when doing works that are to be displayed for a long time.

PRINTING
Aqua Art ink may be thinned to achieve proper ink flow
Thoroughly mix the ink prior to printing.
Maintain ink temperature at 65-90F (18-32C) for optimum print performance. Lower temperatures increase the ink viscosity, impairing flow. Elevated temperatures lower the ink viscosity, reducing print definition, film thickness and opacity.
DRYING
Aqua Art ink dries by evaporation in 20-30 minutes depending on temperature and humidity.
Jet dry at 66 77 C for approximately 30-45 seconds using maximum air flow through the oven. Adequate cooling may be necessary to avoid blocking problems when stacked.
