Wilflex is part of the giant PolyOne Corporation and they make their inks in Atlanta.
If you go to
PolyOne Corporation - Screen Printing Inks, you get re-directed to the
Welcome to PolyOne Corporation home page for textile ink.
Scroll down half a page and you will see
Distributor List in the left column.
Now you have to play Whack-A-Mole and pop up each individual state instead of looking at
a list. You will find that Wilflex is distributed by the two biggest distributors in North America, Midwest Sign and Nazdar SourceOne.

MultiTech plastisol ink is made in Saint Louis by Lawson Screen & Digital Products. It's across the street from the Mathew Dickey Boys Club - 2 blocks south of I-70 on Kings Highway.
Multi-Tech Plastisol Textile Screen Printing Ink
Start with general purpose plastisol inks designed for wet-on-wet printing on light color shirts where the ink should stain the shirt. Every distributor can help you choose the right ink for the shirt material. Dark garments are much harder and you will need learn the different inks for different shirt blends and design complications.
Get color charts from each vendor and try to select colors that are already mixed.
Ryan and Lawson have regular classes. Instead of flying to Long Beach for the biggest textile printing show of the year, you could go to Textile Tech, January 18 - 19.
