Q5: What thinner should I use? Can I add solvent? A: Only distilled water / deionized water. Do NOT add alcohol, solvent or common thinner, which will destroy water-sensitive resin and cause function failure. Max dilution ratio 1‑3%.

Q6: When should I add curing agent? A: For PVC, PET, fabric / textile printing: add 2‑5% curing agent to improve adhesion. Paper printing normally does not require curing agent. After mixing curing agent, finish printing within 4 hours; residual mixed ink cannot be stored.

Q7: Why water response is slow or no transparent effect? A: Common reasons: ①Ink film too thick; ②Ink not fully dried; ③Wrong solvent added and damaged water-sensitive composition; ④High absorption substrate. Adjust mesh and drying temperature, run pre-sample test before mass production.

Q8: How to clean screen after printing? A: Clean screen mesh timely with clean water before ink dries. Dried ink will block mesh holes permanently.
