    Recommendations for use:

     

    Plate processors: Use ABC/ALLIED K-Gum diluted 1 part gum

    to 1 part water.

     

    On plate by hand: Pour a liberal amount of gum onto a damp

    sponge or shop towel, and wipe evenly over the entire plate for

    storage. Dilute if necessary.

     

    On metal metering rollers: Clean build up ink of the metering

    roller, pour gum onto a clean sponge or shop towel and wipe

    metering roller with a side-to-side motion until entire roller has

    been treated. Allow to dry before restarting press. This will ensure

    a water attractive metering roller.

     

    A fountain solution additive: Add to pre-mixed fountain solution

    in increments of 1/4% per liter of fountain solution, to eliminate

    scumming problems and keep reverses open.
