TDS of XG shoelace dipping silicone
1st Dipping silicone Clear layer 1 time
Dipping silicone XG-20S-1 100G
Fast dry silicone catalyst XG-KB-1 10G 10% (10G silicone to mix with 1G catalyst)
Silicone thinner XG-128AH 120-150G 120-150% (10G silicone to mix with 12-15G thinner)
To dip one time and wait about 40-70 minutes to get the ink layer surface dry by room temp, after the ink layer surface dry to heat cut.
2nd Dipping silicone Color layer 2-3 times
Dipping silicone XG-20S-1 100G
Silicone color pigment 2-4G 2-4% (10G silicone to mix with 0.2-0.4G color pigment)
Silicone fast dry catalyst XG-KB-1 10G 10% (10G silicone to mix with 1G catalyst)
Silicone thinner XG-128AH 120-150G 120-150% (10G silicone to mix with 12-15G silicone thinner) To dip 2-3 times color dipping silicone, after dipping to wait about 20-30 minutes to get ink layer surface dry by room temp to dip the other times.
3rd Dipping glossy or matte silicone for top coating dipping
A.Glossy silicone dip one time(if need supper glossy, normal glossy no need )
Glossy silicone XG-399-2 100G
Silicone fast dry catalyst XG-KB-1 10G 10% (10G silicone to mix with 1G catalyst)
Silicone thinner XG-128AH 100G 100% (10G silicone to mix with 10G silicone thinner)
B.Matte silicone to dip one time
Matte silicone XG-136M-1 100G
Silicone fast dry catalyst XG-KB-1 10G 10% (10G silicone to mix with 1G catalyst)
Silicone thinner XG-128AH 200G-250G 200% (10G silicone to mix with 20-25G silicone thinner) After finished to wait for at least 1-2 days to get silicone ink 100% dry.
If fast dry catalyst gets ink dry too fast and wastes too many materials, then can choose mid dry catalyst XG-ZB-1; If the weather is too hot that mid dry catalyst is also dry too fast, then can choose slow dry catalyst XG-MB-1.
