Aqueous BenefitsAqueous coating is easy to use and environmentally friendly. It is a water-based overprint that improves the look, feel, and durability of many different types of print jobs. Printers prefer aqueous coating because it can be run in-line and dries quickly, which streamlines the overall printing/coating process, including work-and-turn, speeds up press runs, and cuts time from press to finish. Aqueous coatings can be applied in-line or off-line, wet-on-wet or wet-on-dry. They offer a variety of finishes - high gloss, satin, matte - as well as primers for other coatings. Aqueous coatings are versatile and tough. They also have higher gloss, better clarity, higher abrasion, and more rub resistance than conventional press varnish. |
