A Unique Product to Replace Conventional Printing Chemistry. Wonder Fount 2 in 1 Fountain Solution replaces fountain and alcohol components in the dampening system on sheetfed, commercial web, forms, envelope and metal decorating presses.

Application

This fountain solution is for Alcohol damping presses and eliminates the need to mix the fountain solution and alcohol together. No pH and conductivity control are necessary.

Usage

When using on presses with automatic dosing of alcohol and fountain solution switch off the fountain doser, then remove the alcohol from the dosing unit and replace it with Wonder Fount 2 in 1 fountain solution. Set the alcohol doser to read 10% and recommence running. The fountain solution will then consist of 10% alcohol and 2% fountain solution. The pH reading will be between 5.0 -5.2 and the conductivity reading will be approx 800ms (depending on the water supply). The fount can be decreased as low as 7% if no scumming is apparent OR increased to 15% for excessively hot and humid conditions or jobs with exceptionally large image areas. The pH will be constant and the conductivity will be approx 1000ms but it is of no consequence. The surface tension of the fount solution will be 40 dynes the same as if I.P.A. were in use. For hand mixing where no fount doser is available place 3 litres of Wonder Fount 2 in 1 fount into a 25 litre container and fill up with water. Then add the diluted fount to the press.

Special Qualities

Eliminates the need for a separate fountain doser on alcohol damping presses. Less chemicals to mix on hand fed presses. No other fountain solution required. Just add water.
