Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison

And getting it to adhere to certain substrates, namely Nomex. From my understanding though Nazdar sold the rights and will no longer be offering it. Has anyone else heard that?Hello Brandon. Nazdar has NOT sold the rights to the silicone material. We are still under development (getting closer every day!) before we officially launch the product under our Nazdar SourceOne IMS label. The primary market for this material is polyester printing (replica football jerseys, performance wear, etc.) Please stay tuned! Not intended as a sales pitch, but rather as distributing needed information -- in regards to High Solids Waterbase inks, SourceOne distributes the MagnaColour waterbase line which includes a high solids base. A key advantage is that one set of 12 Magnamix Pigment Concentrates can be used in any of the Magna bases -- discharge, high solids, specialties, ND extra for lights, etc. Again, please stay tuned for an official product launch! We do have inventory and are evaluating market needs. Please contact your local Nazdar SourceOne sales representative for more information!

Hey Guys,Just my opinion here but the stuff is really neat. Prints fine from what we have experienced. Granted we do not offer it now as we have more than enough inks with plastisol, water base, discharge, and others. We do not need another and we do not print for Nike. I did have the awesome opportunity to visit a very large shop recently and that is what they print around the clock. The numbers they do a week is staggering. Holy smokes. Tell you what though the prints are smooth and very nice. From my understanding this type of ink would be called "rubber base" in Europe because it does have that smooth, thin hand. Cool and it does have its place for certain designs/substrates but I prefer the water base / discharge "no hand" myself.
