Angry printing water based ink over top of plastisol underbase

okay, i think i made a bad decision.

i usually always print with water based ink but i was becoming frustrated with the super opaque nazdar white drying in the screen really fast. i was doing a four color printing and was getting mad because the white was clogging up and messing up the print. so i decided to use plastisol for the white underbase. i finished printing with white plastisol and a black water based on top. i guess this doesn't work since the water based has nothing to grab onto.

is there anything i can do to fix this? maybe a clear overcoat or some sort of spray that will keep the black from washing out. i am screwed if i can't figure this out.

please help!

also are there any tips to keep the white from drying in the screen so fast.
