Since this application can be inconsistent, it is most effective on fashion-oriented designs and fabrics.
Print the design with conventional inks (no matter if it is a single- or multi-color job).
After FX can be a great way to dress up an old design or, maybe just as important, to save a job.

In each comparison, polyketone thermoplastics offer product engineers and designers a new tool in the product development toolbox for engineering plastics.
If the material is allowed to stay in an injection molding machine or extruder (profile, sheet, etc.) too long, the material will start to discolor and brown ‘freckles’ may appear.
