Handling: PAVONINE THICKENER EZ (THEZ) is pre-neutralized and therefore requires no special handling. It must be kept in tightly sealed preferably metal or glass containers for maximum shelf life as solvents will slowly evaporate through the walls of plastic containers, especially ones with high surface to mass ratios.
Mixing: Between 2% and 3% PAVONINE (PARM-9001) THICKENER mixed in at high speed is normally recommended. Less than 2% may be sufficient when printing on towels or when using "jelling" pigments such as some black pigments.
Storage and Shelf Life: Store in a cool place and keep tightly sealed for maximum shelf life. If stored in properly sealed original containers the product should remain usable for at least 1 year. As shelf life is a function of storage conditions and container seal, Pavonine Products can not accept responsibility if the shelf life of the product is less than 1 year.
