How to Choose the Right Hydrographics Activator

Each TWN film includes a recommended activator on its product page. To achieve the best possible results, always pair your film with its specified hydrographics activator. The right match ensures proper activation and delivers crisp, vibrant finishes every time.

NJM2010SPC is a low-aggression hydrographics activator formulated for camo patterns and films with vibrant colors. It provides a longer activation window and prevents over-activation, resulting in sharper detail and enhanced color accuracy, ideal for TWN’s camouflage films.

3-3502 is designed for the ink systems in TWN’s wood grain, carbon fiber, and designer hydro dipping films. It promotes optimal ink rewetting, ensuring consistent image transfers.

DFA2024 Activator (Gen 2) is a proprietary solvent blend that optimizes the performance of TWN’s digital custom-printed films only. This next-generation formula delivers superior ink liquefaction, enhanced color retention, and sharper image transfers, resulting in a more consistent and high-quality finish across all TWN custom hydrographic films.
