Use the search feature. Though not the best, it turned up a few threads covering this.
Here's one I found using "search" in the equipment section. (sometimes where you search seems to matter)

btw, as you can see, I also moved this thread to Equipment

Serilor TXS-3 55/90/55 for plastisol white UBs, HSA, WB, DC.

70/90/70 for all else, I think Saati 'made' our last couple rolls, but probably they are rebranding another's?

Completely agreed.

55/90/55's are great for putting down a good layer of white - but the 90 still allows you to hold more detail than a 60 or 65 single durometer.

70/90/70's are great for all else.

Call multicraft (info on multicraftink.com) and order the red white and blue. 65/95/75. You'll thank me later.

P.s. Oh, yeah, and the 55/95/55 is the way to go for the whites. Tech support sps has the best pricing I've found. They have a banner on the top.
Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

I second the Multicraft red/white/blue and I have thanked Pierre. It doesn't bend, stays sharp.

Third..  Since we've started using them about a month ago they have become our go-to squeegees for most jobs and having the ability to flip it around if needed to achieve more/less ink deposit is also big plus, especially on sim process jobs.

We also use Serilor 55/95/55's for laying down lots of white and 75/95/95's for top colors/high detail printing.
