However, if required, some extra Unigraph anti-stat can be added, approx. 1 to 3 ounces per gallon of mixed solution.<\/p>\n<h4>HOW IMPORTANT IS A DOSAGE?<\/h4>\n<p>Accurate dosage is important for performance and economy. Excessive amounts of anti-stat or silicone product can be detrimental to the final performance. Unigraph recommends Dosatron Graphic D14MZ10 doser which offers the following benefits: Extremely accurate dosage between 1 \u2013 10%, economical use of emulsion, non-electrical application, trouble and services free, easy installation.<\/p>\n<h4>DOES WATER SUPPLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE?<\/h4>\n<p><em>Soft water is preferred because it produces a stable solution, free from fluctuation of town water. Hard water can produce a surface scum which interferes with even film on applicator roller.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WHAT ARE SILICONE PRODUCTS?
