I'll be printing on 100% viscose black tank tops tomorrow, anyone got any tips?

The job is base plus 1 or 2 colors. I'm prepared to be pretty delicate with my flash and cure temps/times; my major concerns are ink related. Does Poly white do the trick ok?

Wish me luck! This is one of those customer supplied, small quantity orders that I'm sure everyone here loves as much as I do.

Thanks in advance!

Alright, yall. I might try to put this one off another day, to see if I can figure out the best scenario. I'm gonna try to get a hold of one of our suppliers and see if they've got any recommendations. Regardless, I'll post the results when I've finished 'er.

My plan at this point is poly white base, maybe with a low-cure additive.

The shirts came out fine! Turns out I was worrying too much about it. The shirts held up just fine to a mildly-delicate flash and shrank only a very small (read: insignificant) amount on their way through the dryer. Used poly white.

I hope this helps someone at some point. I'm happy to try to answer any questions anyone might have regarding my experiences here.
