Staining with Epson pretreat

(1/2) > >>

DemonSP:
I’m at my wits end with this. Been using our epson f2000 for 3 years. Has around 30k prints. Not quite a rook. Last few runs have had this bad staining around the edges of the pretreat pics Included.

I’m using the epson pretreat. 70-30 mix. Lawson pretreat machine  Changed the tip. Hung to dry, used a tunnel dryer, heat press: stains all methods. Please help! I can’t afford to discount more shirts lol.

Zelko-4-EVA:
have you tried any other pretreat?

we use the FIREBIRD F2000 LIGHT DARK PRETREAT (sorry for the caps its copied from my order log) and seem to have decent luck.

Frog:
Since this is a new problem with your usual pre-treat, could the liquid itself have become contaminated?

blue moon:
what changed?

Also, there are pretreats designed specifically for the light garments. Are you using those? Or, try using those. . .

GraphicDisorder:
That was the most frustrating part of DTG for me. Manufacture would change the mixture on pretreat and we'd get a new set of results. Without warning.
