Best fountain solution for reduced or free ipa

  • Hi Jose,

    why would you change ist? Alcolan XL 47.5 can be used 0-5% IPA.

    Have you tryed it?

    We tested some fountains in the last 15 years. Alcolan XL ist on of the best for us (confentinonal offset 3% IPA). (the second Druckchemie Alkoless)

    Sincerely

    Sebastian

  • I think one is for harder, one for softer Water...

    We have soft - very soft Water (no water tratment) and use. 47.12


    But no one can recommend an optimal water supplement for you. There are too many variables for that. Such as: rubber blanket, water, color, printing plate, ink rollers, set temperatures, material used, the operator...

    We have had similar good experiences with fountain solution additives from Druckchemie.

    Thank you for your information, I am going to try Alcolan Xl 47.12,

  • Hallo zusammen

    Alcolan XL 47.12 ist für DOP Platten optimiert. Mit hartem und weichem Wasser hat dies nichts zu tun.
    So sind jedenfalls meine Infos.
    Wer mit DOP Platten arbeitet, dem empfehle ich den Wechsel von XL47.5 zu XL47.12.
    Der Zusatz ist sehr empfehlenswert.

    Gruss Jakob
