SIHL™ USA Inc. Products

The following testing was performed by Clearstar Coatings on Sihl USA Inc. printed substrates. Inks are verified as to maker or type (dye or pigmented) when provided to us by Sihl.

Typical results are noted. If an ink is water sensitive, ClearShield may affect the printed surface. In some cases the inks, not the substrates, may be responsible for "non-compatible" results. ClearJet is compatible with both water-sensitive and non-water-sensitive inks and substrates. On certain inks and substrates, however, compatibility depends upon the application method.
