Match the ink to the nylon fabric finish

Water-repellent nylon, woven nylon and open mesh present different printing surfaces. Include the fabric finish specification when you enquire, especially for water-repellent or anti-wicking materials.

Check the complete printed construction

Review the basecoat, colour layer and finish together. Yunrui case notes identify layer compatibility and the interval between coats as possible causes of delamination. The material guide also distinguishes ordinary mesh from woven and treated fabrics.

For colour bleeding, include the fabric colour and any heat-processing step. For peeling, show which layer separates and when the failure occurs.

Application questions

Is 37B the same product as H37B?

No. 37B is a solvent-based ink in the nylon range. H37B is listed separately as a water-based printing ink. Use the complete model name when requesting documents or samples.

Can I select a nylon ink from the fabric name alone?

The fabric name is a starting point. Surface treatment, weave, basecoat and later processing also affect the trial. A representative fabric sample helps the team review the combination.
