When Do You Really Need UV Printing Primer?

UV printing primer is necessary when printing on low-surface-energy or non-porous materials such as glass, metal, acrylic, polypropylene, and coated plastics. Primer improves ink adhesion, prevents peeling, and increases durability. In industrial production, manufacturers use primer to ensure consistent output,...
