Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
to be desired in the boldness though, sometimes.
We have unfortunately seen ghosting here before. The problems were as Rick lays out. Pigment dye...%100 cotton shirts...LB ink ( when not needed )...high speed production...hot stacking.

Not to put a specific brand on blast, but these things are good to know.I realized that the reason we probably haven't seen ghosting is that we rarely print straight plastisol white on cotton garments anymore.
here is the thing regarding cost of ink....I DON'T CARE!!!I buy ink based on what it costs to run, not what it costs to buy. I can run ink that is $100 per 5, but if it flashes like crap and the whites aren't white, well, is it worth it? No.$335 vs $305 is almost nothing when it comes to per print cost. I like a fast flashing ink that prints great...I can print faster with less power running the flash unit...it ends up being way cheaper per gallon.I try never to look at what something costs to buy but rather what it costs to run...
