Plastisol Ink Printing

Description:

Because of its high opacity and ability to sit on screen for long periods of time without drying, plastisol ink is arguably the most widely used garment ink in the United States. Other factors such as durability, flexibility, and versatility have also led to the popularity of plastisol ink. Specialty plastisol are also widely used and often offered as additives, bases or in premixed containers that are ready for use.

Features:

• High density - Makes the ink com e straight up off of the garment with no arching.
• Puff - Makes the ink pop off of the garment with an arch so that it looks puffy and soft.
• Soft hand - Reduces the viscosity of the ink and allows for a softer print. May also reduce opacity.
• Reducer - Thins the ink and reduces both viscosity and opacity; very similar to soft hand.
• Suede - Dulls the print and gives it a flat, low gloss finish.
