Plastisol AND Waterbased

[TCT]

Anyone ever mix PC and WB or even PC and DC together? As in- in the same screen, throw some PC 185 and some WB 185 in a qt. container mix them together load the screen and print! Had my guy that does some great outside the box thinking, ask about the possibilities/outcome today.
I had no answer, which is not entirely new;D

I'd start with just a little of each in a paper cup and see if they will even mix together.

That falls in the "Can you or should you" category. Can't begin to explain how much trouble youd be getting into.

I think I smell what you're stepping in.  You mean doing this to get a marbled print with each ink staying separated but still printing?

Ya, that's what I stepped in!   It is more of a "challenge" that my guy is looking for. He is very process and technique oriented. His nickname is actually "The Waterbase Whisperer" among other things. I am real lucky to have found him.

Tony, what happens? If it is a total crap shoot I'd rather not waste the time and resources...

Its not the water and oil that you may think you could replicate marbleizing or batik; if that's where you are going. Totally different viscosities, solids vs liquids, etc. Expect a huge mess. Perhaps a plasticharge/discharge but it would most likely turn into a split fountain. Hey, everythings worth a try but I personally don't see any value and wouldn't expect good results. Expect a messy clean up.

I have no idea but go for it. Why the hell not!?
