Canon Arizona DTS prints still tacky

[Proofread People]

Hey All,
Hope everybody is well and keeping busy. Just wanted to throw out a question for any Canon Arizona flatbed users on curing experiences with their DTS prints. Have had some issues with prints feeling tacky, scratch easily, ink transfer or flaking (on edges when trimming on Keen cutter) after print, even after allowing 24 hours for print to sit. We have our leading lamp set at: 70 and trailing lamp set at 85. Wondering if it's a matter of adjusting lamps or related to how we clean our substrates. We have been using what Canon tech suggests: Denatured Alcohol/simple green/distilled water, to clean coroplast, ultraboard, pvc, ACM, allowing it to dry thorough before we press go. Any feedback would be appreciated.

It would help to know if its an LED or mercury lamp curing.

I print alot of .080 styrene and Coloplast full coverage on a Arizona GT135 with canons 358 inks.
I turned both UV curing lights up to 100% and the ink still feels tacky and Bricks together wnen stacked, even after a week of sitting on racks, and also run thru a UV Light Dryer for Screen Printing.
Canon rep said to slip sheet the jobs,
I said NOT!
As long as it doesn't offset to the back of the next sheet I'm ok with it for now.
