Simply mix Ryo Charge 50\/50 into your high opacity Wilflex Lava Inks, stir thoroughly, add 4%-6% activator (by weight) and print away.

That compound is Zinc Formaldehyde Sulfoxylate. The discharge process begins from high heat, either during flashing or curing, breaking apart the activator molecule. Once the activator is in its separate components, the formaldehyde attaches to the fabric dye and breaks the dye molecule. It's this process which removes the color from the garment you are printing on. However, not all dyes react well and are considered “nondischargeable”. So check with your garment manufacturer for a dischargeability rating chart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the garment dye is removed (this process happens at 250°F) you need to continue to heat up the ink layer and get a FULL cure of your entire ink layer. Even though this is not traditional discharge, we do still need to make sure all of the water has evaporated from the ink layer and that the plastisol ink has reached cure temperature. Each plastisol ink brand has different cure temps, check with your manufacturer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the end of the discharge process and during cure, the formaldehyde combines with the sulfur to create an inert molecule. As always, make sure you vent all air from the dryer to the outside. Some people have an itchy or swelling reaction when handling the discharge agent, what they are reacting to is the Sulfur in the activator. About 3% of the population have a sulfur allergy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs always, test before running production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEMULSION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScreens must be coated with a water-resistant emulsion, we recommend using an emulsion like \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.screenprinting.com\/products\/green-galaxy-cryocoat-emulsion\"\u003eGreen Galaxy™ CryoCoat\u003c\/a\u003e.
