1 of 12 products in this brand
Setaprint™ 150 A is a Lawter™ phenolic modified rosin ester. Setaprint 150 A is a unique ultra-high molecular weight resin, possessing high viscosity while maintaining a workable dilution range. Setaprint 150 A provides greater compatibility with drying oils and alkyds then ever achieved before at this viscosity. These combined properties allow Setaprint 150A to help improve gloss, transfer, dot sharpness, gel structure and press stability. This resin provides an inner structure in solution allowing for reduction in gelling agents and improved stability of gelled systems
