Old problem with no answer.
For about 14 years I was an offset pressman running stricktly UV inks on foil board. Now I am a supervisor running into the same problem.
Problem:
While running Opaque White we get a very light haze over the entire sheet. If you ran your finger across the sheet it will come off. This Lt haze takes away the shine of the foil.
I attribute this problem to the water. When running a dry plate we have no issues.
In my days running a press our water mix was with alcohol / acid base and we experienced this haze issue.
Now as a supervisor we are alcohol free and experiece the same problem.
If you have experienced this problem and have any ideas please let me know.
