Camo and discharge?

[ZooCity]

Assuming this is a no-go, but anyone tried it?  Need to pop some blaze orange onto some Code V camos.

I know the camo bleeds like no tomorrow so I'm a little concerned.

Can't hurt to try but remember most if not all camo products are printed not dyed. The inks most likely will not discharge.

Try an Unerbas Grey or something similar? Or even black as your under base. Just spit ballin'

I remember trying several years ago a box of camo products from all different vendors we had on the shelf. Just white discharge and orange if I remember correctly. I figured why not because we needed some shop rags at the time. I remember getting pinks and browns and just not working. There could be something out there now but we only get asked for camo once or twice a year and the client always wants a thick print as "thick means quality" or something like that to them. Weird

I know a few ink manufacturers have a grey for this. I've been using the Underbase Grey from Wilflex. NEVER a problem with it.

Thanks dudes. 

The underbase blocker grey from WFX is part of the Epic Performance line.  Works very well but I find a need to cut it with Epic Perf White (it's too dark) and a need to add Viscosity Buster at about 1-2% max (it's too damn thick) outside of the normal pre-warming all our opaque inks get.  It and just the straight Perf White are my go-to inks for the bleeders.  We also have the Perf base + PCs and can mix small batches of all our top colors so the whole film is low-cure temp and dye blocking. 

This camo request is actually for retail so trying to get the softest hand, which we won't with those Performance inks but it should work for the art just fine. I kinda presumed discharge would simply brown out like that, thx Brandon.

The bigger issue is getting them printed for them at a price point that works in the retail setting.  Camo is not cheap.

best way to print camos is to print a black thin base and print over top, any other color get bleed thru.
