I actually found the Miami ink to be stiff. Maybe it's just me, but I wasn't a huge fan of it. I've tried tons of different whites and Phoenix just kills everything else out there. Wilflex Epic Quick is my #2 white, but Phoenix has a little more opacity (puff maybe) to it. I don't care about price, to an extent. Phoenix is good, and a little pricey, but eliminates so many problems and allows an easy one stroke print that we save (make) money by using it.
For those of you who have tried both superior and smooth, how do they contrast with regard to(1) opacity, (2) creaminess and viscosity right out of the bucket, (3) short vs long body, and (4) flash time. If the opacity is comparable and the flash time better, maybe smooth would be worth a shot. Thanks in advance.
We had some bleed with red 50/50, I could see it but the customer could not, actually did a reorder. No other problems I can remember. So far we have been using their colors with no issues including a few grey's, pinks, red, black, navy, orange, lt royal etc.
We use the smooth and find it very creamy. We use it in the auto with no modifications. We liked the phoenix but found it just as creamy as the smooth but the smooth kills it in price. Why pay so much more for a product as good as creamy. We use this white now for everything.

we've enjoyed using the superior white, but I'm a little skeptical of the inks actual contents. Defiantly odd in the curing aspect. Cracks if it's not hitting at least 380 for 20 seconds in the dryer, and has a little bit of a paint thinner smell as its curing. they don't supply alot of info just PF for phthalate free. Don't get me wrong, it prints awesome, washes well. But more info on it's high cure temp requirements and what's actually in it would help. I can't get anyone to email me back from there. So we will probably move on to something else when ready. We had al ot of white in the house.
