Why is my UV coating showing a yellowish cast?
Sep 13, 2018

UV coating normally does not yellow. The most common cause of yellowing of UV coated stocks is excessive heat from the UV dryer. Try cutting back on the amount of energy used in the UV dryer or speed up the press. PIA has a paper and ink lab that can often be used to determine why problems occurred.
