screen printing > Waterbase and Discharge

What brand of base do yall use for Waterbase printing?

<< < (2/3) > >>

ericheartsu:
i'm thinking that since the w-base is a low solids, that's partly why it's so thin/runny. So if you find a medium solid, or high solid ink, you'll probably fair a bit better.

I want to play with some water base and discharge. Is there a water base (not discharge) that will look great with a p/f/p?
Also- do you wash the shirts first or tell the end user to wash. A distributor told me that it is not necessary...

You can`t beat MagnaColour Aquaflex V2 white. It just so white and so opaque.
Anyway, MagnaColour inks for waterbase all day every day.

We only wash discharged tees if we print for schools or kindergartens. Before Covid we used to do  a lot of band merchandise that was all printed with discharge, never washed those tees before shipping to client.

All clothing needs to be washed before wearing. Even non printed garments can and do have formaldehyde in it plus other tasty ingredients
