Craig Gardner Posted August 3, 2008 Report Share Posted August 3, 2008 i tried that one before andy, took weeks to dry even though i got the mix bang on you wouldn't know where i can get the one that's in a plunger? rick. i use the mastergrave one and it dries in about 2 minutes when i put it in the crystal print machine under uv light that i got from express. when i was down at trophex i got a sample of stuff in a syringe it worked great but the tube dried up within 2 days of opening even in a sealed bag. ill dig out that companys details when back in the shop on monday.

Hi rick here is a link to the uv machine i use its great we mainly do full colour wedding photos onto large paper weights. http://www.xpres.co.uk/systems/crystal_print_systems i think a normal uv light should help but this machine aint that expensive and goes great along side sublimination products. craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 if your looking for a cheap alternative, perhaps only needing a UV box for small odds & ends go into your local TV repair shop & ask to order one from there caterlogues, the UV boxes are used to make printed circuit boards to are readily available to the electronics industry. I got my LV202E (image here http://www.megauk.com/uv_exposure_units.php ) For well under the £100 mark shown, by going "local" Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
