sim process on wicking t
« on: November 03, 2016, 04:14:55 PM »
OK, though we've printed gazillions of performance t's, we've never tried a sim process job on one. I would have design with 2 whites and 2 grays, we could use a blocking ink for the whites, and maybe mix the grays using black and the same blocking whites?

I've done several sim process jobs on performance t's. Poly white for the under, the colors were all standard plastisol.

We have done this in the past and are printing one today. No issues.

That particular job was Wilflex Top Score white. Currently I am using Triangle 1706.

Are you using 1706 or 1706EX?

Gotcha.  That is actually my favorite all around poly ink, though I will say it is actually a bit too creamy for one hit whites.  I have been testing out mixing it with a thicker white this week with pretty awesome results so far.
