Zodiac Taurus Blue #1 Non PVC Ink
Blue #1
Minimal Training, Maximum Impact
Zodiac™ Taurus™ non-PVC inks have been formulated to meet the sustainability preferences of consumers while providing the desired adhesion and low crock performance expected by brand owners and printers. The Taurus line of non-PVC inks provides printers with a comprehensive system of bases, modifiers, additives, ready-for-use (RFU) colors and specialty inks free of formaldehyde and alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEO).
These mixing inks are a combination of 14 RFU mixing primaries plus and extender base that when mixed together simulates PANTONE® colors quickly and accurately. The individual components are finished in so they can be used straight out of the bucket or extended with base to create color on light garments.

Printing Tips
Taurus Mixing inks can print directly onto 100% Cotton or over Barrier Black underlay for Polyester fabrics.
The formulations of all Taurus ink mixtures of PolyOne only produce simulation for PANTONE® Colors. The accuracy of the colors may be affected due the choice of the ink film on thickness, opacity, metamerism and whether it is formulated for an underlay or not. Do not dry clean, bleach, or iron the printed image.
It is necessary to stir the product before printing.
Test all prints for print durability before starting the production run.
Fabric Types
Cotton. Synthetic fabrics and blends can also be used but may require Taurus Barrier Black to prevent dye migration.
