Printing Tatoo with Seiko Fluorescent Inks

Learn about printing the SEF Tatoo polyurethane heat transfer films with Seiko's new fluorescent colors.


Last year, Seiko I Infotech Inc. (SIIT) introduced their new mild solvent fluorescent colors, designed for use with the Seiko's ColorPainter W-54S and 64S wide-format printers. These inks are compatible with the SEF Tatoo series of printable polyurethane heat transfer films. Tatoo appliques printed with the Seiko neon colors are perfect for garments worn in nightclubs, casinos, bowling alleys and amusement parks.

While the new Seiko neon inks are only available in Neon Yellow and Neon Pink, they are not just for spot colors.  By replacing the light cyan and light magenta inks with the neon inks, you can give conventional 4-color process printing an unconventional and exciting fluorescent effect. 
Printing Tatoo appliques with the new neon colors will make even ordinary graphics exciting, even in the daylight. Under black lighting, the colors will glow with electric appeal.
