magna white vs cci white discharge

[noortrd]

We checked and found that magna white is clear winner of whiteness.  Hope anybody tell cci to produce cci super white in future.

For us Rutland white plus. It has a slight blue shade which helps on troublesome fabrics. We did real time side by side tests on a wide variety of fabs

I'm pretty sure Tony has done is homework in this department.

The blue thing is quite interesting.

Years ago, when I was starting out, and first experienced the "pinking" of white on 50/50 red, I half jokingly mentioned the blueing agents available for laundry I remembered from my youth to the guy who I got shirts from, and he thought it made sense.
Even though I still avoided red 50/50 whenever I could, I did play around with adding a little blue, and it turned out that I wasn't the only one!

The slight addition of blue gives an optical illusion of a brighter white. I wouldn't be surprised to find that they are still a part of some laundry detergents or "whiteners".

Its an old plastisol trick

As I am an old plastisol printer, lol!

Ironic for a discussion with you, or a thread in this section, that in 1970, I cut my teeth on wb for fabric.

So, why would they limit it to plastisol? (except for the Rutland Tony mentioned)
It appears to be a concept that comes to so many spontaneously.
It must be in many other inks as well.

Off topic the first puffs were waterbase only years later the plas vs came out.

I always figured that the puff inks grew from a similar chemical concept used in those "snake tablets" that we lit in ashtrays to watch the long ash grow and grow.

In triangle phoenix white they use turquoise not blue or violet.

I have used the blue trick in the paint industry as well, makes a big difference in cheaper straight whites
