Properties

TP 400 is a solvent-based pad printing ink. It can be processed as a 1-component ink and (alternatively) as a 2-component ink with the hardener. Processed as a 1-component ink, TP 400 dries physically; as a 2-component ink it is physically and chemically reactive and results in a satin gloss finish.
