Daler-Rowney System3 Textile Screen Printing Retarder Medium 250ml

• Daler-Rowney System3 Liquid Retarder is a product specifically designed for use in screen printing and slows down the drying time of System3 acrylic screen printing inks.

• It can also be used to reduce the viscosity of the inks, making them easier to apply on fine and detailed work.

• This liquid retarder can be mixed with System3 screen printing media, System3 acrylics or Daler-Rowney ready-to-use acrylic screen printing inks.

• When mixed with these inks, a slower drying time is achieved, allowing more working time before the ink dries on the screen. This is especially useful in hot, dry conditions where the ink tends to dry faster.

• It is important to note that it is recommended to use the liquid retarder in small amounts at first and add it slowly to suit artistic preferences.

• It is not recommended to add more than 25% of the total ink volume when mixing. This ensures a good balance between extended drying time and ink consistency.

• In addition to slowing drying time, System3 liquid retarder also helps to reduce blockages in silk screens, making them easier to clean. This is especially useful when working with fine and delicate details, as it helps to maintain ink flow through the screen.
