need any advise for coroplast sings printing

need help what mesh count works the best? ,ink name and does it have to be diluted also any advised how much offset i need from the screen to the coroplast sign and what to do when the coroplast sticks to the screen thank you ladies and guys for your help i hope i can make it work with your help.:confused: :confused:

I like Nazdar inks, they make an ink that can be Air Dried or Heat dried, you have to use a thinner/retarder and a Catalyst for adhesion onto coro. Theses inks are multi purpose good for Metal signage, coro, Plastic bags, PVC, and much more..., when the sign sticks your Off Contact is usually bad, are you using a Manual press? usually with the Nazdar inks you want a 305 mesh, being that the inks are really thin you need higher mesh screens. I have been screen printing for a while printed coro for a little while but i HATED the SMell, decided to stick to what i do best and thats shirts and Digital printing, Good Luck :)

The only advice I can offer over what you have been given already is one that can cost you the most amount of money....and may seem rather harsh so my apologies upfront if this seems rude.

But spell-check your work. If you had your post printed on say 1000 signs, you would have an angry customer and another 1000 signs to print again at your expense. I have seen many shops fail to implement the concept of proof reading and your misspelling of the word "SIGNS" with "SINGS" would be a very costly mistake.

Again, sorry for being the person to point out such a trivial detail on a forum, but if you new to this industry you would be SHOCKED at how many times it happens.
