Yep. Very good stuff, at least the plastisol is. Working on getting the DC better on the long term washability.

we just printed some green stuff and it is almost bright enough to read by it! Since it goes in the clear gel and has very little opacity on it's own, we printed the ubase and green first. You can mix it in with a translucent yellow, but it will not be as bright. You could do DC yellow and gel on top for amazing results.
