We are looking for an inkjet receptive coating for plastics and metals which is: 1) waterproof (before and after inkjet printing) 2) able to take pigmented ink upto 1440/2880 dpi 3) preferably able to be aerosol canned 4) dry fast I think it should be some kind of microporous polymer coating, Also a post coating for protection.
