Yes though we have had some bad luck in terms of some normally dischargeable colors (black etc.) not discharging correctly.
I only mention because it has happened more often with Beefy tee's than with say Gildan etc.

our last Golden Image winner was a DC underbase on the Beefy. It was a small run as we are just getting started with the discharge, but that one order was a killer!

We tested CCI D-White on like every dang Black T out there for a client and Beefy is pretty low on the totem pole.  It worked but the others looked better.  Could just be overdyed black shirts though I have not ran the beefy colors...or, come to think of it, the Nanos.

done lots of beefy t discharge base and full pigmented discharge prints and always come out nice and consistent, you are going to want to use lotso pressure discharge printing beefy though because there is so much fabric to cut into, I usually do a double stroke with about 40 psi on the auto to really drive the discharge in lots of angle as well say 156-230 mesh counts depending on the design.
 Port and Co shirts though, are not so consistent on discharging, woooooooo no

We fell in love with cci white and base for discharge, but I've heard good things about sericol and rutland discharge as well.

All of those are good products. Janzeten and Matsui also if you're on the West Coast. Once get beyond dabbling you'll find that discharge inks are far less finicky than plastisols
