Description

TW Graphics — TW 5500 Flat Series — Water-Based Poster Ink

TW 5507 Flat Violet — Water-Based Poster Ink

TW 5507 Flat Violet is one of the most visually powerful colors in the TW 5500 lineup — a deep, chromatic violet that defines the concert poster aesthetic and anchors the purple range of the TW 5500 palette. Concert poster shops, fine art serigraph studios, and limited-edition print operations reach for TW 5507 when purple needs to be genuine, deep, and spectacular rather than pale or approximated. Pigmented with automotive-grade colorants for up to 3 years of indoor light-fastness, press ready, and formulated for polystyrene, Tyvek®, Tedlar®, polycarbonate, treated polyesters, pressure-sensitive vinyl, and aircraft interiors.

Key Features

Rich Chromatic Violet — Maximum Impact

TW 5507 delivers the kind of deep, jewel-toned purple that defines the concert poster tradition. In full coverage it reads as unambiguously, spectacularly violet — not pale, not muddy, not blue-leaning, but genuine chromatic purple with the depth that gallery and stage lighting demand.

Purple Color System Anchor

TW 5507 anchors the entire purple range of the TW 5500 palette. Mix with TW 5505 Magenta for warm, red-purples. Mix with TW 5509 Green Shade Blue for cool blue-purples. Add TW 5521 White for lavender. Overprint on TW 5504 Blue Shade Red for extraordinary deep purples in multi-color serigraph editions.

Rich Flat Finish

TW 5500 Series inks cure to a controlled flat/matte surface that eliminates glare, enhances color depth under gallery and stage lighting, and gives printed pieces a premium hand-pulled serigraph feel.

Press Ready

Supplied press-ready for most applications. Stir well and print. Additives available for specific conditions but not required for standard runs.

Multi-Substrate Adhesion

Adheres to polystyrene, Tyvek®, Tedlar®, polycarbonate, treated polyesters, pressure-sensitive vinyl, and aircraft interior panels — the full flat-stock and specialty print substrate range.

Fast, Clean Cleanup

Water-based chemistry means screens clean with water. No harsh solvents, no hazardous waste from the ink itself. Faster between-run cleanup than solvent systems.

Color Character & On-Press Behavior

Understanding how TW 5507 Violet behaves on press — not just what it looks like in the bucket — is what separates professional poster printers from the rest.

Color Bias & Character

Deep blue-purple — strong chromatic violet. One of the strongest visual-impact colors in the TW 5500 lineup. High pigmentation.

Mixing Potential

The purple anchor of the TW 5500 palette. Mix with TW 5505 Magenta for warm purples. Combine with TW 5508 Red Shade Blue for cooler blue-purples. Add TW 5521 White for lavender and soft purple tints.

Halftone Performance

Powerful halftone ink — strong pigmentation means even 15-20% dot reads as distinctly violet. Plan highlight percentages carefully. Proof the full tonal range before committing to an edition.

Print Sequence

Print late in the sequence over lighter colors to build maximum chromatic depth. A final TW 5507 pass over TW 5504 or TW 5518 creates extraordinary luminous purples.

Who Prints with TW 5507 Violet?

🎤 Concert & Gig Poster Shops

Violet and purple are among the most-used colors in concert poster art — they carry the visual weight of night, mystery, and music. TW 5507 is a staple ink for any poster shop running band and venue work, delivering genuine chromatic purple rather than a muted or muddy approximation.

🌟 Fine Art Serigraph Studios

Limited-edition serigraph work at galleries and print studios depends on colors that hold their spectral integrity across long edition runs. TW 5507’s strong pigmentation and consistent hue make it a reliable anchor color in gallery-quality multi-color editions.

🍴 Premium POP & Retail Display Printers

Purple is one of the most premium-signaling colors in retail display design. TW 5507 on polystyrene and pressure-sensitive vinyl delivers the rich violet character that luxury, wine, cosmetic, and entertainment retail clients demand.

🎓 Art Schools & Printmaking Programs

University printmaking programs consistently list TW 5507 as a core color in their TW 5500 palette because of its strong, teachable secondary color behavior and the visual impact it brings to student multi-color editions.

On-Press Setup — TW 5507 Violet

Mesh Count

200–380 monofilament polyester. Start at 230 mesh for solid spot-color coverage. Use 305–380 for fine halftone and detail work. Higher mesh = finer detail, lower opacity per pass.

Squeegee

70–85 durometer polyurethane, sharp edge. Start at 75 durometer for most applications. Use a harder squeegee (80–85) for fine halftone work. Ensure sharp, clean edge for consistent ink transfer.

Stencil

Solvent and water-proof emulsion only. Murakami Photocure Pro dual-cure photopolymer is preferred for all TW 5500 Series work. For extended long runs, apply Murakami MS Hardener before going to press.

Drying

Air dry: 20–30 minutes at room temperature between color passes. Force dry: a few seconds at 90–150°F for faster production. Allow full dry before stacking prints or applying overprint passes.

Press Preparation

Stir TW 5507 Violet thoroughly from the bottom of the bucket before press-up. Off-contact distance of 1⁄16″–1⁄8″ is typical for flat-stock applications. Print a test sheet before committing to the full edition.

Cleanup

Clean screens with water immediately after press-down. Do not allow TW 5500 Series inks to dry in the screen. For stencil reclaim, use a standard water-based emulsion remover after water cleanup.

TW Graphics Additives for TW 5507 Violet

TW 5500 Series inks are press-ready for most applications. When press conditions require adjustment, TW Graphics offers a complete additive line specifically engineered for the 5500 Series system.

Screen Room Recommendation

Best Emulsion for TW Graphics Poster Inks: Murakami Photocure Pro

TW 5500 Series inks demand a stencil that holds fine halftone detail, resists moisture breakdown through long runs, and survives the water-based ink environment without edge bleed or stencil degradation. Our recommendation is Murakami Photocure Pro — and for extended long runs, Murakami MS Hardener applied before going to press.

Murakami Photocure Pro Emulsion

Murakami Photocure Pro Emulsion

Dual-cure photopolymer emulsion with 38% solids. Blue-colored for excellent coating visibility. Exposes 3–5x faster than diazo emulsions. Outstanding halftone and fine-line resolution — essential for TW 5500 water-based poster printing.

Over-reduction with retarders and thinners can result in blocking and a significant reduction in drying speed. Never exceed recommended additive levels.

⚠ Test Before Production

Always run a test print on the production substrate first. Substrate surface energy, mesh count, and squeegee hardness all interact with final print results.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How strong is TW 5507 Violet at low percentages in halftone?

Very strong — this is important to plan for. TW 5507’s high pigmentation means even a 15–20% dot reads as distinctly violet. When running TW 5507 in halftone gradients, plan your highlight percentages carefully to avoid heavier color in the highlights than intended. Proof the full tonal range on production substrate and lighting conditions before committing to the edition run.

What is the best way to build lavender and light purple tones with TW 5507?

Add TW 5507 to TW 5521 Hi-Hide White in small amounts — start at 5% TW 5507 and build up. The strong pigmentation means a small addition goes a long way. For cooler lavenders, add a touch of TW 5509 Green Shade Blue; for warmer lavenders, add a small amount of TW 5505 Magenta.

Can TW 5507 be used as an overprint color to build depth on other colors?

Absolutely — this is one of the most powerful techniques in the TW 5500 system. Overprinting TW 5507 Violet on TW 5504 Blue Shade Red or TW 5518 Process Blue produces extraordinary deep purples with luminous depth that a single-color mix cannot replicate. Even a partial coverage overprint in a transparent TW 5507 pass over a previously printed color creates striking color depth in fine art serigraph editions.

Is TW 5507 Violet press-ready or does it need to be modified before printing?

Press-ready for most applications — stir well from the bottom of the bucket and print. TW Graphics supplies the 5500 Series at correct press viscosity for standard equipment and conditions. You may need to adjust with a small amount of water or TW Z1820 Thinner if your press runs at higher speeds or your shop is warm.

Why is my ink drying in the screen between strokes?

Common in warm shop conditions or on slow edition runs. Fixes in order: (1) add TW Z1822 Retarder at 5% and re-test; (2) increase flood bar frequency to keep ink moving; (3) lower shop temperature or add airflow around the press; (4) switch to TW Z1823 Slow Retarder for extreme heat conditions. Never exceed 5–10% total retarder — over-retarding causes blocking.

I’m seeing pinholes in solid areas on the automatic press. What’s causing it?

Almost certainly foam from the flood bar beating air into the ink at high speeds. Fix: add TW 5100 Defoamer at 1% by weight, stir gently (vigorous stirring defeats the defoamer), and allow 2–3 minutes before going back to press. If pinholes persist, add another 0.5%. Never exceed 2% — over-defoaming causes fish-eye defects.

What substrates does TW 5507 adhere to?

The TW 5500 Series adheres to: fine art serigraph paper and board, polystyrene, Tyvek®, Tedlar®, polycarbonate, treated polyesters (substrate, not fabric), pressure-sensitive vinyl, aircraft interior panels, and skateboards. Always allow 24 hours after printing before evaluating adhesion to a new substrate. The end-user must determine suitability for the specific application before full production.

Can I mix TW 5507 with other TW 5500 colors?

Yes — all TW 5500 Series colors are formulated in the same ink system and mix cleanly together. See the “Mixing Potential” section above for specific color combinations that work well with TW 5507 Violet. For exact Pantone matching, TW Custom Pantone Water-Based Inks are also available.

What emulsion should I use with TW 5507?

We recommend Murakami Photocure Pro for TW Graphics water-based poster inks. Dual-cure photopolymer with 38% solids, outstanding resolution, and stencil durability for long poster runs. For extended high-volume runs, treat your Photocure Pro screens with Murakami MS Hardener before going to press for maximum stencil longevity.
