Precautions

- Any strong mechanical finish like calendering, pressure decatising etc. which can affect the surface characteristics of the finished fabric may reduce blooming effect.

- Blooming effect will not be observed for dyefixed fabric.

- pH of padding solution should be 4.5-5.0.If pH increases to alkaline side, emulsion becomes unstable resulting in the formation of white specks and ultimately lower colour deepening effect on the fabric.

- Make small volume of pad solution to avoid tailing problem.

Precautions
