Rutland LB0266 Chill LB LC Barrier Base

Rutland LB0266 Chill LB LC Barrier Base

Rutland LB0266 Chill LB LC Barrier Base is a low-cure underbase formulated to help prevent unstable garment dyes from migrating into white or colored inks. It is designed for challenging polyester fabrics, poly blends and dye-sublimated garments, including camo and digital-camo patterns.

With a cure range of 250°F to 320°F, Chill Barrier Base helps protect heat-sensitive garments from shrinking or distorting. The ink shears down quickly to a creamy, smooth consistency and provides excellent bleed resistance across a wide temperature range.
