Looks like an impressive water based ink. Plastisol inks will be the brightest and most durable ink for tee shirt printing. They will also be the easiest to use and store. You can use PVC and Phthalate free types for environmentally friendly applications. Check out my videos for tutorials on screen printing and heat transferring tee shirts. Questions welcome.
I use the supercover (white cap opaque ones) and they are pretty good on black stuff, awesome outdoor durability - i have shirts I made 2 years ago that are totally faded fabric and falling apart but the print is still perfect. It will of course dry in your screen if you print outside though.
anything that is airdry is going to pose ink stability problems in production. that is not spoken of here. I bet this stuff is quite spendy as well. anybody here in the USA have something to say about how it runs/flashes and cures in production? How about it's longevity(say on a black tee shirt?) Any real world info on this ink appreciated. I'm open to it...but I also know water based inks have been avoided for very good reasons. so far anyway. Any AMERICAN printers using???
USA pros have steered away from water based inks for good reasons and there is not enough here to convince me. I've used International Coatings 700 Series plastisols. they have almost ZERO odor and cure fast and easy. More important they are easy to run production with and last the best I have seen(beside QCM white)in white. That they are still calling SCREEN PRINTING, "silk screen" printing is a big red flag. SILK was unstable and weak and has not been used(maybe in AU still!??)for many years.
the ink looks awesome but who the hell is that clown who knows NOTHING about screen printing?? He has no idea what he is talking about and just interupts him with stupid jokes
These inks sound great, but could this guy have picked a bigger weirdo to interview him. He should have had a screen printer interview him, and the topics that were important would have been emphasized and not that other guys desire to wear stretchy fabrics.
I have a question. Are the ink ready to use? are there any additive chemicals that you have to mix? how do you clean the screen? does it wash off with water? thanx!
Good video! If you're interested in screen printing stop by my page. We have the best collection of screen printing instructional videos on Youtube and are constantly growing.
WHAT IF I WANT TO MIX MY OWN COLOR?
