Default white reflective ink on black T

I want to get a black and white reflective design printed on both white and black Ts. From the search results and some google hits on reflective inks, I have doubts about the opacity and whiteness of the reflective white portion when printed on a black T.

Is the white white, or does it have a gray cast? Do you need multiple prints to get opacity? Do any ink brands do reflective white with better whiteness or opacity and less labor?

Thanks in advance.

Useful forum, btw. Thanks

Check out the tech sheet for the reflective ink made by International Coatings in Cerritos, CA. Google their website. You can also call their 800 tech support number.

Already had. I'm still looking for user experience on black, however.

Thanks
