- May be used for some hot foil stamping, imprinting, UV coating and gluing applications. Before doing so, KS-9855 should be completely evaluated under production conditions using the actual substrate and ink, as materials for foil stamping, imprinting, UV coating and gluing vary from supplier-to supplier.

Most aqueous coatings are alkaline in pH because of the presence of ammonia and/or amines. Kustom Group recommends avoiding the use of inks containing pigments that may bleed or change color when being exposed to an aqueous coating. Pigments that typically exhibit this alkali sensitivity include YS Rhodamine, BS Rhodamine, Methyl Violet, Fluorescent, Red Lake C, Alkali Blue (Reflex Blue) and possibly other pigments. Many pigments normally considered safe may prove to be problematic in low color strength color matches. The safest option is to use inks formulated to resist this burn potential. As a precaution, we strongly recommend that new pigments and ink formulations be evaluated with this coating.
