About FLYSHINE
FLYSHINE covers the metallic effects printers and coaters use, from bright silver and mirror-like chrome effects to golds and copper.
How to use
- Incorporation
- Low shear only; do not mill
- Water-based systems
- Use only SH-AL-WB: untreated aluminium reacts with water and releases hydrogen, which can burst closed containers
- Bronzes
- Avoid amine- and ammonia-rich vehicles, which dull and gel copper alloys
Storage, packing and supply
Aluminium pastes are flammable, and fine metal powders can form explosive dust: store in a licensed store away from water, acids and alkalis.
