Tried a New White

[ZooCity]

I have never tried to f*ck a screen if that is what you are implying.

Go for the 330 tpi....

phthalates = lubrication

good example.. ever used a non lubricated condom an try to stuff it in there.. yeah you get the idea 

Wait a minute...  you mean now they're using cornstarch instead of phthalates?   Now it all makes sense.  Damn you dilatant flow!

I tried a new white today and all I can say is by bye bye CCI and hello Rutland discharge.

Care to embellish?  Running low on D-White and have a CCI rep coming here in 2 weeks with a 5 gallon bucket of D-White.  I know Tony said he had better results with the Rutland, but we've been satisfied with the D-White.  Any photos of comparisons?  It is more vibrant?  The D-White is pretty bright when we've used it.

I'll have to give the Rutland discharge white another shot. It was too thin when we used to run it,
and would change consistency to quickly in this California sunshine.

Our local distributor only carries the Rutland base, which we're currently using. I'm seeing strange things happening,
penetration isn't as good, reds aren't behaving like usual, etc.

I think more than one product being better than another, we learn to work with a certain products characteristics,
and then change that product and blame it on the new one rather than our set in stone methods.

Which reminds me why we haven't tried anything new in a while.

This is on a 50/50 heather Gildan sweat. It is as white as white gets. I noticed it from across the shop. I thought the guys screwed up and were using plastisol. I have gone through a lot of CCI white and this on this sweat blows it away. We did run Nextlevel Vintage black tri blends with the same graphic and it was not too much better than the others on the tri blends except for the white was whiter and not a bone. I need to play with it a little more on the tri blends to get it to pop more.

That is very nice on a 50/50!  You did a wash test?  Let me know if you end up doing a wash test and if it stays as true.  I'd greatly appreciate it.

Looks like a heatherish fleece? Most heathers we've tried actually discharge pretty well, save the usual suspects,
kelly, royal, etc.

Is the exact product # WB9067 Discharge White Plus?

Thats it. These sweats were Gildan 18500 Dark Heather 50/50. Like Eb said a lot of heathers do discharge well. I was just surprised by the whites optical brightness and how white it actually was compared to CCI, Sericol, and Mattsui.

Has anyone tried it on 50/50 Tshirt or fleece in red or royal and it not migrate after a week or two?

[JBLUE]

Forgot to add that was straight out of the bucket. No water and no base. 5% agent only.

It is printed on a couple of red Ts now from some test prints. I will hold onto them to see if it migrates. We have run CCI on 50/50's and tri blends with no migration issues after the fact. Just saw one customer that we did a month or so ago with re NL Tris and they looked just as good.

It better be good at twice the price.  But I'll spend the extra if its that good.

I've never seen migration with WB, as far as I know garment dyes don't sublimate into wb inks, but
I could be wrong.

Reds and blues tend to be what you see is what you get off the bat. If it discharges it discharges, though
that doesn't mean all pieces in the run will...

It pays to call your supplier and slap them around a little .  A few emails and the next thing you know, it's under $300 with free delivery!!!  It went from too bad to hell yeah real quick.  And I got the Rutland Poly White at $15/gal cheaper than I was getting the Triangle Excel so that's another $75/mo saved on ink just by asking a few questions.
