Finally had a chance to print with Kevwilson 3x inks he sent me samples of, I did not use an underbase just straight on the shirt 230 mesh cts and one stroke except for the yellow 2 on that. All in all looks nice to me could have been way better, but I'm not as good of a sep guy as Dottone who normally does my seps, but I wanted to try this myself.  The main thing is Kevins ink did a very good job and no bad smell that I get when using union's cymk I even had to dial the squeege pressure back.  If this sounds like a plug for Kev and Rivercitygraphic Supply it is!!!! oh and the ink is Phthalate compliant for those that have to have that, which I know we all are one day.

Thanks for the positive feedback on the inks!  Like I said these 3X Processsare pretty new to us; and I hadn't heard much on them since we only initially stocked them for one customer here in town.

That's a good looking print D.  I don't know if there was another print you were trying to copy like a picture/poster but on it's own it looks great.  The chick is yellow, the oranges are orange, the green is green, the blue is blue, can't see anything that would lead me to believe you don't know exactly what you're doing. 

I am lucky enough to have Kevin a 15 minute drive from me.

And I'm almost out of 4CP ink so I'll be picking some of this up in the next month or so.
