Can you use WB ink on a AA TriBlend?

Fresh Baked Printing:
Can you use WB ink on a AA TriBlend?  (50% Polyester / 25% Cotton / 25% Rayon) .
Customer looking for a super soft print.

(Yesterday I had another customer specify the most bullet proof print possible.)

alan802:
Hmmm, that is interesting and I look forward to seeing the answer to this question.  Something tells me that the print will look way better on a regular 100% cotton AA but it is probably doable on the tri-blend.

Evo:
Yes, but if you want a soft print, don't do it on darks. Discharge won't fly (unless they want that "sold at a flea market" look) and to print opaque inks you need to put down a layer of undercoat binder then an underbase on top of that.

On white/light shirts the trans 301 inks will work great.

Those things fibrillate like no tomorrow. Evo is dead on on the binder and then the base. I hat those Fkn things sometimes.

So is it called an underbase underbase? Or is it underunderbase?
