"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
If you use a PC system, do yourself a favor and try his base. All I can say is this stuff is what ink is supposed to be, and acts the way ink is supposed to act. Turn up your game with some. We've gone through 150 gallons of his base. Needless to say, I love it.

Needless to say, I love it.Which formula system are you using with the Synergy base and pc's?I was going to ask the same... along with if you're noticing any color shifting when mixing from the formulas...We use the Epic PC system here and I notice color shifting if we don't select the right base at the time of mixing (ie, 15000, Amazing, Top Score, Performance all have different 'white' characteristics and the colors will shift depending on that -- selecting the right base or having wilflex techs give us the correct mix for the color fixes all of that, and in our shop I don't think I'd want to lose the flexibility I have by calling wilflex in the morning and having a perfectly matched pantone color by afternoon).That being said, Joe does have an additive that I may need to get a hold of to try out.Still patiently waiting for the 'blends' white ink to try... we don't print enough 100% cotton with plastisol to justify changing our white at this point.
Joe -- looking forward to seeing the chart. Will be ordering some Magic and Base soon to try them out!
Joe was just here and after we made one change on the press we are 100% on board with his ink. I think before the changes his stuff was twice as good as anything around, and after the adjustment it doubled up again.We had the press flooding and stroking at 100% speed (pretty scary seeing the things move so fast!) and everything was printing and flooding better than any other ink I've seen, that's at 2 times the speed we normally print! pierre

Joe asked we keep it under wraps for now so I can't share more, sorry. . .pierre
