I just got a call from one of my customers, they stated that the ink on the shirts is washing off. I using plastisol ink and flash drying it for about 2-3 min, does anyone have some advice. thanks chuck
You'd be surprisedAs a general rule if someone posts in the screen printing forum and talks about flash drying, they're screen printing not using transfers...

Nope.Ayres Clothing said:Is there anything wrong with plastisol inks when printing on cotton shirts?
It depends how you define better. Waterbased inks give you a softer hand, are better for the environment, and pose less OH&S risk to the printer. On the other hand they're not as opaque, take longer to cure, and dry faster in the screen. They're generally considered harder to work with and not as good for printing on darks.Ayres Clothing said:Is there a better type of ink I should be using?
