Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
Peter, whats the status on the Magna Pigments? I gave up on Wilflex right before they ditched the program as I had a super hard time getting product.

You can order direct from CCI, Ryonet sells it as a private label (not sure why they would do this) and GSG has it as well. Question 1: I'd be happy to try out some of this ZFS or ULF Magnaprint as well. Does Nazdar offer samples for testing?Question 2: Peter, does the Magna ULF have a softer hand to the finished print than the ZFS? My understanding was that, if properly cured with airflow, ZFS discharge prints do not contain significant formaldehyde but rather a sulfurous substance left in the print. The "wash before wearing" was simply to soften that print and prevent the odd occurrence of someone being sensitive to that sulfurous by product. We have had zero sensitivity issues from customers (we do not run discharge for children's wear unless we post launder ourselves) but now are faced with post-laundering many of our retail ready products which is a pain of course.

Answer 1: In the past Nazdar SourceOne used to provide a lot more free samples of inks and chemicals. Over time we found out that many of our customers placed a value of $0.00 on a free sample, and quite often the product was never tested. Because of this we have largely migrated to a policy of offering a money back product performance guarantee. Either the product performs as promised or you get your money back. Answer 2: Good question about the difference in “hand” between the ULF and ZFS discharge systems, unfortunately I don’t know the answer. I’ll ask one of our technical people to respond with a qualified answer.

Their product sku for this is CCIDISWHITE. Apparently they think everyone else is just as dumb as everyone else thinks Ryonet is.

I believe the ZFS replacements are capable of spontaneously combusting, andas such must be shipped Hazmat, etc.The chance is likely extremely remote, but apparently possible enough to warrantthe warning.
If it's the same stuff as the formaldehyde free plasticharge (thiourea dioxide?) it's a hazmatship.
Peter I'll ask again......how will the magna pigments be packaged. The Wilflex vs was terrible.
