TexTac is a water-based, pressure-sensitive adhesive designed for adhering textiles to pallets in the screen printing process. TexTac provides consistent registration without transferring to the garment. A single application may hold hundreds of garments before it is necessary to reapply.

 

  • Retains Tack for 400 Shirts or More
  • Eliminates Over-Spray onto Floor, Equipment & Air
  • Water-Based = More Environmentally Friendly
  • Maintains a Healthier work place
  • Non-Flammable
  • One Gallon Replaces 4-5 Cases of Aerosol Containers = huge savings!
  • Freeze/Thaw Stable

 

Bottom Line:  For nearly 20 years, TexTac has helped shops save money. Switching from aerosol spray tack to TexTac not only positively impacts your bottom line, it spares your lungs.

Additional Information

MIX

Stir approximately 30 seconds before use.

 

APPLY

TextTac can be applied to pallet manually with a card, paintbrush, or spray bottle. We recommend air assisted spray units for fine, even coatings. We suggest applying pallet tape to a clean surface - this avoids scrubbing TexTac from the pallet. Only a thin layer is needed for shirt printing; however, a thicker layer is needed for fleece, sweat shirts, towels, or other high lint materials.

 

DRY

TexTac can be air-dried; however, 20 seconds under a flash unit will accelerate drying. A heavier coat of adhesive increases tack strength and dry times. TexTac will turn clear when dry.

 

RETACK

When lint build-up diminishes tack, a damp sponge can be used to knock off lint and re-tackify the adhesive, or reapply and allow TexTac to dry. Adhesive may transfer to garment if it is not dry or bonded to pallet. Retacking may not be necessary until 200 to 400 impressions.

 

CLEAN UP

Pallets, equipment, and floors can be cleaned with hot water mixed with image mate Degreaser 260. Pallet paper eliminates pallet cleaning. Acetone may be used on stubborn areas.

  • Apply pallet paper to a clean pallet, apply a THIN layer of TexTac, flash dry it, then start printing.
  • Don't reapply every time - use a damp sponge to roll excess lint off of the adhesive.  TexTac will stay bonded to the pallet tape and is re-exposed.  Flash dry and keep printing.  You might be able to repeat this all week before removing the pallet tape and applying another teaspoon of TexTac!
