I'm just looking for an advice about best white low or no bleed at all plastisol ink.I 'm printing on 50/50 cot/poly sweatshirts and hoodies and white ink is causing me a lot of troubles especially on black and red.

I'm sure you'll get lots of different replies to this, but I have tried several and always end back up at TRIANGLE low bleed white.

Im hoping for lots of replies also.. I have some Lawson 1550, super thick, cant imagine how it will bleed..however, if anyone has any prior experience, id love to hear as well

I usually use QCM 145 white for 50/50's or sometimes QCM 170 white (which is made for 100% poly) if I'm really having trouble.
170 white is pretty thick though.

QCM works great--> GLACIER WHITE

Glacier 159 might be bleed resistant enough. I don't know for sure I don't use it. But I can say that The 158 will still bleed some even though it claims to be low bleed. 145 and 170 I think are better. Call Chris at QCM he will go over your options for what you want to print on. They are very helpful.

thank you all for the replies . i have a sample of QCM158 from last year summer SGIA expo and i'll give a try . let's see how it works. i found that overcuring 50/50 fabrics are fatal and need very precise curing time.
thanx again to all

Hey, we use union holb mostly other brands as well... me thinks they all are similar but man it is thick union esp so a couple of drops of curable reducer helps as well as warming everything up ....jeff
