Description

Matsui Yama HD — High-Density Raised Prints

When a logo needs to pop off the garment with sharp, elevated edges, HD is the tool. The Matsui Yama HD is a high-density silicone system built for raised logos, tactile branding, chest emblems and bold lettering: print it through a low mesh with a thick stencil and a print-flash-print build, and it stacks into a crisp, dimensional emblem with clean edges. Because it’s silicone, that raised print stays soft and flexible and rebounds with the fabric — so it won’t crack, split or peel on premium athleticwear, compression leggings, jerseys or luxury streetwear. Run it natural or tint up to 10% with Yama pigments for custom HD colors.

Why Print High-Density

Bold, raised dimension

Builds real height for logos and emblems that stand off the garment with a premium, tactile feel.

Crisp, clean edges

A thick stencil and roller squeegee give sharp, badge-style edges — no rounded mush.

Soft & crack-proof

Unlike rigid high-density inks, silicone HD flexes and rebounds — no cracking on stretch.

Custom HD colors

Tint up to 10% with Yama pigments for any color in a high-density build.

How to Print HD

1 · Catalyze

Stir, add 10% catalyst (and up to 10% pigment for color), mix uniform, rest 5–10 min. 4–6 hr pot life.

2 · Build the height

30–80 mesh (12–32T) — lower mesh = more height — with a thick solvent-resistant stencil and a 60–70 durometer or triple-duro squeegee. Print-flash-print to stack layers; a roller squeegee sharpens edges.

3 · Cure

Flash ~220°F for 5–8 sec between layers; final cure 300–320°F for 1–2 min (film above 250°F). Don’t over-flash — it flattens the build.

Over-flashing flattens HD. Only flash enough to set a layer before the next print. Over-flashing (or under-curing) kills the height, edges and adhesion.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Matsui Yama HD (SI0330) — Frequently Asked Questions

What is Yama HD used for?
It’s a high-density silicone ink for sharp, raised logos, emblems and tactile branding. It builds real dimensional height with crisp edges, and because it’s silicone it stays soft, flexible and crack-proof on stretch apparel.
How do I build height?
Print through a low mesh (30–80 — lower is taller) with a thick solvent-resistant stencil and a print-flash-print build. A roller squeegee gives sharper, badge-style edges.
Can I make custom HD colors?
Yes — tint up to 10% with Yama pigments for any color in a high-density build.
Why is my HD print flat or rounded?
Usually over-flashing (which flattens the build) or too few layers. Flash only enough to set each layer, and use a thick stencil and low mesh.
How is HD different from Emboss and Puff?
HD builds crisp, tall, sharp-edged logos; Emboss gives a sculpted, leather-like texture; Puff foams into a rounded 3D puff.
What sizes are available?
Quart, gallon and 5-gallon. Call us for help sizing a job.
