well i have done over 200 shirts back and front with one guart of black plastisol ink. the good thing about black ink is that it takes real good on the shirts. i dont use waterbase so dont know if there is to much of a difference. good luck

If you are going to continue printing you will always need black. If you are mixing yourself I would say mix a small batch to make sure you get the black tone you are looking for.

Thanks guys I thought about it as well, and ended up buying a Gallon of the Enviroline Soft hand water based black. Like you said I can always use it and I really doing just black and white designs (I do more complex thing but I just like how bold black on white is.)

Thank you, it was kind of weird, your link didn't show up till I quoted you to say nothing was there. This is extremely helpful though, it's much appreciated.

Yeah, it's some kind of bug in the forum software. They are suppose to be working on it.
