Ulano Hardener X

Ulano Hardener X is a high-performance solution designed to enhance the durability of your screen stencils. Applied to both sides of the screen after exposure, washing, and drying, it forms a chemical bond with the mesh that increases resistance to stencil removers. This hardener creates a long-lasting stencil, but it makes reclaiming mesh more difficult. For optimal results, allow the screen to cure at room temperature for 24 hours, or accelerate the process by applying heat (up to 140°F / 60°C) for one hour.

Key Features:

• Enhanced Durability: Strengthens the stencil by bonding with the mesh
• Chemical Bonding: Creates an additional bond that stencil removers cannot break
• Easy Application: Apply with a soft bristled brush or sponge
• Curing Options: Cures at room temperature or can be heat-accelerated
• Incompatible with Reclaiming: Once applied, mesh cannot be reclaimed using standard removers
• Works with Other Emulsions: Can be used with various textile emulsions, though stencil removal may be more difficult

Important Notes:

• Curing Time: Allow 24 hours at room temperature or one hour at up to 140°F (60°C) for faster curing
• Not Reclaimable: Once hardener is applied, mesh cannot be reclaimed
• Stencil Removal Difficulty: May embrittle the stencil, making removal harder
