WILFLEX™ Epic Rio RFU Colors offer a range of popular industry colors formulated to be vibrant, bold and pure in color. Each color is optimized for unmatched quality and printability
in a ready-for-use format. With superior opacity, printers get to color quickly even when using fine mesh screens, saving ink and money. Rio RFU Colors are low cure and designed for wet-
on-wet printing and suitable for manual and automatic press.

• RIO RFU Colors can be cured between 266°F – 320°F (130°C – 160°C)
• Excellent color reproduction using 160-305 t/in (62-120 t/cm) mesh on white, light garments and over a base plate. Use finer mesh and save ink without sacrificing color accuracy.
• For best results on non-woven polypropylene bags, single print using 110-160 t/in (43-62 t/cm) mesh with a 60 or 70 single durometer squeegee
• RIO RFU Colors are not a low-bleed inks; *when printing on fabrics that are prone to bleed underbase with an approved WILFLEX low bleed white and/or blocker
• Exhibits good color retention in high-speed wet-on-wet production with minimal build up. Use 230 mesh or higher for best wet-on-wet printing.
• Adjust flash cure temperature and dwell time so ink is just dry to touch. Depending on flash unit, a 2 – 3 second flash is adequate
• For cold-peel transfers, use a coated release paper or polyester film. Print colors using 70 duro squeegee and 110-230 t/in (43-91 t/cm) mesh followed by powdering. Gel at 212°F (100°C) for 60 sec. Apply transfer with heat press at 300°F (150°C) for 10-12 sec at medium pressure. For transfers on polyester, back with a low bleed white and/or blocker. Verify process.
• Use ASI K2920 FINESSE to extend the ink for blending colors in halftones or when garment colors allow ink opacity to be decreased. Suitable for use at 270°F (132°C)
