Description

Designed for Sign Shops & Production Screen Printers:

Part of the TW Graphics NXG UV mixing system, NXG-04 is engineered for consistent pigment dispersion, stable viscosity, and predictable blending performance. It integrates seamlessly with other NXG mixing colors and bases for precise formulation.

This product is commonly used as a:

  • UV mixing red ink
  • UV single pigment screen printing ink
  • UV color matching ink
  • UV ink mixing system component
  • Custom Pantone formulation base

For printers currently using Nazdar mixing systems, NXG-04 Blue Shade Red functions similarly within a structured UV mixing program.

Where It Performs Best:

When properly formulated into a finished ink, NXG-04 is suitable for printing on:

  • Treated polyethylene (PE)
  • High-density polyethylene (HDPE)
  • Polycarbonate (PC)
  • Polystyrene / Styrene
  • Pressure-sensitive vinyl
  • Static cling vinyl
  • Reinforced vinyl banners
  • Coated paper and board stocks
  • Corrugated plastic (Coroplast™)

For polyethylene substrates, surface tension should be 42–46 dynes/cm or higher. Always perform adhesion testing before full production runs.

How It Cures:

This is a true UV-curable mixing ink. It does not air dry.

NXG-04 cures under focused medium-pressure mercury vapor UV lamps in the 250–360nm spectral range. Typical UV energy requirements range from 150–300 mJ/cm² at 365nm depending on film thickness and formulation.

Proper cure testing should be completed after final color formulation.

Pantone Equivalent:

  • Pantone Match – Pantone 199C (Closest Visual Equivalent)
  • Color Type – Single pigment mixing color
  • Match Type – Component used for custom Pantone formulations
  • Note – Final Pantone match depends on full ink formulation and mixing ratios. Always test and verify before production.

Why Screen Printers Choose NXG Single Pigment Mixing Colors:

  • Precision color control – Designed for custom Pantone matching
  • Controlled pigment strength – Predictable blending results
  • Stable viscosity – Consistent performance in production
  • Broad substrate compatibility – Vinyl, plastics, Coroplast, coated board
  • System-based formulation – Integrates with NXG mixing program

NXG-04 Blue Shade Red is ideal for shops running advanced custom color programs that require repeatable, accurate UV red tonal control.

Nazdar® Cross-Reference – Comparable UV Mixing Ink:

Looking for a Nazdar UV mixing color alternative?

TW Graphics NXG-04 Blue Shade Red functions similarly to single pigment mixing colors used in Nazdar UV mixing systems. Both are UV-curable components intended for controlled color formulation and Pantone matching.

As with any ink system substitution, adhesion, cure energy, and color formulation testing should be completed prior to full production runs.

  • Viscosity: Optimized for smooth, controlled ink flow
  • Mesh Count: 230-355 mesh recommended for best results
  • Curing Requirements:
    • UV Exposure: 300-500 mJ/cm² at 365nm
    • Fully cured under standard UV light systems
  • Adhesion Range: Compatible with pressure-sensitive vinyl, polystyrene, polycarbonate, HDPE, Coroplast™, and coated paper stocks
  • Shelf Life: 12 months when stored properly

How to Use TW Graphics UV Single Pigment Mixing Colors:

  1. Screen Preparation: Use a properly tensioned screen for precise ink transfer.
  2. Ink Mixing & Preparation: Blend single pigment colors using a mixing guide or software for accurate Pantone® color matches.
  3. Printing Setup: Use a 70-75 durometer squeegee for smooth, even application.
  4. Curing Process: Expose prints to UV light (300-500 mJ/cm² at 365nm) to ensure complete adhesion and durability.
  5. Testing & Quality Control: Always test mixed inks before full production to ensure color accuracy and proper curing.

Ideal Applications:

✅ POP & retail displays
✅ Custom signage & decals
✅ Industrial & packaging graphics
✅ Promotional materials & branding
✅ Pantone® color matching & spot color printing

For screen printers looking to create custom, high-precision UV colors, TW Graphics UV Single Pigment Mixing Colors provide unmatched flexibility, vibrancy, and durability for a wide range of printing applications.

This product ships directly from TW Graphics. Please allow extra processing time.

Recommended Printing Substrates:

✅ Plastics & Synthetics: Treated Polyethylene, HDPE, Polycarbonate, Polystyrene (Styrene), Static Cling Vinyl
✅ Rigid Boards & Papers: Coated Board Stocks, Cardstock, Pressure-Sensitive Vinyl
✅ Banners & Signage: Reinforced Vinyl Banners, Coroplast™, Transit & Point-of-Purchase Displays

⚠ Important Notes:

  • This ink requires UV curing and will not air-dry.
  • Do not mix with solvent-based inks or non-UV-compatible additives.
  • Store in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight.

TW Graphics NXG UV Standard Colors deliver fast-curing, high-adhesion, and long-lasting performance, making them the perfect choice for screen printers working with plastic, vinyl, banners, and signage applications.
