RBC’s UV-7016 is a single component, rigid, photo-cure polymer which cures quickly when exposed to either blacklight or high intensity ultraviolet light. This water clear liquid resin is ideal for decoupage applications on a variety of substrates including ceramic, glass, paper, porcelain, china and metals. RBC’s UV-7016 resin is formulated with a slight degree of flexibility for superior abrasion and wear resistance, and imparts a high gloss, long lasting, protective finish.

Be sure that substrate is clean, dry and free of any oils. Cut photograph or picture to appropriate size and affix to substrate with RBC-5860 sealer. Press well to ensure a flush bond with surface. Apply a thin coating of RBC-5860 sealer over the picture or photograph making sure to coat the edges as well. Allow to air-dry for 30 minutes. Once completely dry, coat with UV-7016 letting material to flow to edges of piece. Expose coating to either black light or high intensity light according to schedule. Remove from light source and allow to cool.
