A Cleaner Adhesive Formula — Without Compromising on Performance
AlbaChem® 1782 Eco Mist is built for shops that care about what they’re spraying. Free from hexane and chlorinated solvents — chemicals regulated for occupational exposure — it delivers pressure-sensitive, flashable adhesion for screen printing, embroidery, and cutting room applications. Repositionable, fast-drying, and residue-free. A capable daily driver with a cleaner chemistry profile.
What’s Included
Key Performance Features
Flashable Formula
AlbaChem describes the 1782 as a “flashable screen print pallet adhesive.” Tack holds stable through flash cure cycles without going gummy or releasing under normal production heat — suitable for single-flash jobs on standard setups.
No Hexane, No Chlorinated Solvents
Hexane is an OSHA-regulated neurotoxic solvent. Chlorinated solvents carry similar occupational health concerns. The 1782 excludes both — a meaningful difference in daily chemical exposure for operators spraying adhesive all day.
Pressure-Sensitive Bond
Creates a repositionable, pressure-sensitive hold. Garments can be placed, adjusted, and pressed firmly into final position before printing — activating on contact without permanently bonding to fabric.
Will Not Transfer
Dries to a tack that will not transfer residue onto garment fabric. Shirts come off the platen clean with no sticky spots — no customer complaints about adhesive on printed apparel interiors.
Three-Department Use
Screen printing pallets, embroidery rooms (applique hold before stitching), and cutting rooms (blotting paper positioning). One product stocked, multiple departments served.
Clean Chemistry Profile
No alkylphenol ethoxylates, no hazardous air pollutants (HAP), no SARA 313 chemicals, no ozone-depleting substances. A formula designed with the working shop environment in mind.
Safety & Ventilation
PPE Required
Wear chemical-resistant gloves and safety glasses. Avoid prolonged skin and eye contact.
Ventilation
Use in a well-ventilated area. Aromatic petroleum/ketone vapors — keep exhaust airflow running during and after spraying.
Flammability
Flammable aerosol propellant. Keep away from open flames, sparks, and heat. Do not puncture or incinerate.
California Note
Not CARB-compliant. CA customers order 1782C. Call (512) 454-0505.
Pallet Tape Workflow
Cover the platen with pallet tape before spraying the 1782. This protects the platen from adhesive buildup — end-of-job cleanup is just peeling the tape. No solvents, no scrubbing.
3-Step Workflow
1782 vs. 1787 vs. 1786 — Which Adhesive Is Right for You?
Choose 1782 Eco Mist When…
You want a cleaner chemical profile, no hexane, multi-department flexibility (screen printing + embroidery + cutting), and solid performance on standard single-flash or non-flash jobs. The eco-conscious choice.
Choose 1787 Mist When…
Maximum tack strength is the priority. The 1787’s coarse mist pattern delivers super-strong grip with low overspray — the heavy-duty option for demanding jobs on standard apparel.
Choose 1786 Flash When…
You’re running multi-color jobs with multiple flash cure stations. The 1786’s tack increases with each flash cycle — built specifically for that workflow.
Application Guide
Step 1 — Tape the Platen
Apply pallet tape to the clean platen. Smooth flat with no bubbles.
Step 2 — Shake & Spray
Shake well. Hold 6–8 inches from the tape surface. Sweep evenly. Light coat = temporary repositionable bond. Moderate coat both sides = permanent bond.
Step 3 — Load & Print
Place garment and press lightly. Pressure-sensitive tack activates on contact. Garments can be repositioned before the print head comes down.
Step 4 — Cleanup
Peel pallet tape for zero-solvent cleanup. Invert can after use and spray until clear air flows to prevent nozzle clogging.
