Vynaglaze APR 47-00 Series – High Gloss Screen Inks for Plastic and Outdoor Applications
The Vynaglaze APR 47-00 Series is a high-performance screen ink system formulated for premium adhesion, flexibility, and gloss on a wide range of plastic materials. With exceptional resistance to weather, petrol, and alcohol, these inks are ideal for demanding indoor and outdoor applications such as window stickers, vehicle markings, labels, and signage.
