Basic Usage Steps
Preparation: Secure the water-based special effects canvas flat on the printing equipment, avoiding wrinkles or misalignment. Confirm beforehand that the equipment is compatible with water-based/mild solvent/UV inks.

Printing Operation: Adjust the equipment parameters to match the canvas properties. After printing the image, place the canvas in a well-ventilated area to air dry naturally, avoiding smudging.

Special Effects Technique Extension: On a pre-painted base, use a sponge to apply a mixture of water-based base agent, gold powder, and pigment paste, layering and evenly patting to create a three-dimensional texture. Let it dry for half an hour, then finally spray with a matte topcoat to enhance the texture.

 

Precautions: Avoid getting the canvas wet throughout the process. Store in a dry, cool environment to prevent moisture and wrinkling.

When applying special effects, maintain even pressure to avoid localized paint buildup, which could affect the final image.
