Anyone know where I can get info on dischargeable garments from Next Nevel, American Apparel or Anvil?. It would be nice to have a thread here on the forum with dischargeability ratings from different garment companies.

i don't know if they have one. at least i haven't seen it.

AA tees discharge pretty ok, Anvil discharge great. Next level i've only ever printed light colored tees!

I suggest a call (or email), to each specific company.
Contact information for each manufacturer should be available from a distributor or a trade mag directory.

Okay you eager dischargers, go to it and report back to your fellow TSB'rs!

Gildan has sent me two of every color, including heathers, to test. We will keep one and send the rest back to them to review.

Do you have to use Maxopake ink when using Unions Discharge System?

Unions Discharge is mostly based on the old Pavonine and is completely aqueous. If you're talking about a hybrid plasticharge the high solids in most maxos wont blend. You'll get cheese and not the good kind.
