"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
Sonny,I used the white gallon that I got in this week. I only printed it manually so far but it covers really good. It reminds me of Unions Cotton white before it started getting runny in the last year. I added just a squirt of curable reducer so the ink didn't stick to the squeegee (very creamy). It covered really well in one stroke. Then after flashing the second pass made it nice and bright. It lays down really flat and covers the fibers really well. Another thing I noticed is the ink doesn't have much of a shine. After printing it gives you a nice matt finish white ink. Can't wait to try the colors. Thanks Jon.
Good luck. Money back guarantee in lieu of samples and no free shipping on reasonable minimums (for those of us out of his delivery area) are a huge stumbling block in my humble opinion.I feel that Xenon will not break through "boutique" status because of these limitations.
I feel your pain P-T, but we don't want to hijack a Xenon thread, in classifieds yet, but leave it at :Dear Xenon, we hope that you can increase your distribution to nation wide, or make some allowances to us out here on the West Coast.

You know what my bad. I do hope they can further their distribution reach to us because I like what I hear so far. BTW Thanks for the phone call Sonny it was nice talking to you.
Okay Sonny I'll help you out and participate in this thread that you bumped anyway to keep it active.As you know, I do like your white except for its squeegee creeping that you and others say will be cured (so to speak ) by adding some curable reducer. However, no one seems to be able to verify that your reducer is also low-bleed like the ink, one of the main reasons that I am using it.
I buy my whites in 5 gallon pails because I save money but your 5 gallon pail is exactly what 5 separate gallons cost. I must ask...SNL What Up With That Theme Song
