I find it funny that they would find plastisol not user friendly. I started out using air dry inks on a Filbar; clean up every time you stop for a break and or lunch, and at the end of the day, no matter where you were in the run. When I started on tees using plastisol, I thought I'd died and gone to Heaven. Changing the attitudes of our employees toward the discharge (and my partner too, though he's starting to really like it) was easier than I thought once they started seeing the results. Right now though, they are trying to reclaim Murakami HV with the sensitizer added; tough stuff. Gotta figure that out...The smell still permeates the shop and offices, but we're working on it...

Compared to air dry I would agree. But when everything gets cleaned up with warm water vs a Safety Kleen sink (or the dreaded Blade Runner) well you get the picture
