The oil-based dyes we are using have been developed by Hilord Chemical Corp., our partner in the manufacturing of our new architectural coatings we are now entering into the market. Our intent is to be able to offer more and more products within the scope of surface enhancement using dye sublimation. We continue to license our patented and breakthrough three-dimensional surface technology and we are now adding several additional components to further enhance our customers' abilities to easily create new designs and put them into their finished products' surface." "The new desktop printer will have the same attributes in performance as the Epson 3000 was designed, but with the new oil-based sublimation dyes it will provide immediate drying, an expanded color gamut The entire range of colors available on a particular device such as a monitor or printer. A monitor, which displays RGB signals, typically has a greater color gamut than a printer, which uses CMYK inks. , and will not cause wrinkling when induced into high humidity environments. Sublimation dyes are typically printed onto the paper substrate and then transferred via heat into a coating or other polymer substrate, thus becoming a permanent part of the substrate.
