I use Ciss with my new Epson 1500w . was wandering does anyone know what ink will be the best for refill . What I meant will not fade out or wash out after first washing on heat press applied t shirt. All t shirts I made when using original Epson cartridges look great after washing... but those printed with inks I bought together with CISS tend to fade or stain t shirts after first washing. IF anyone know what ink to use and where to get it pls lmk. Any advice or help most appreciated.

Only use pigment inks for tshirts.

Dye inks are always water soluble and can and will fade, bleed, or run. Pigments are actually solid but very tiny particles and typically polymer or resin based in composition.

How you doing guys

Pigment Ink outside of US seems to be an issue :/
I search a lot on this forum and on the web and can't find ANY other Ink that is comparable to Cobra Inks.
I live in Ireland, does anyone know the company which have similar quality inks in whole Europe?
I could also buy it in US but I'm a bit concerned about additional taxes/customs costs.
Did anyone try to buy Cobra Inks and ship it to Europe?
You gays in US are lucky to have Cobra Inks

Hi Sorpion83

probably a bit late now but while I have been looking for a printer for myself to print transparencies for screen printing I came across City Ink Express I haven't got a clue if the ink is any good but they do pigment ink for CIS systems for the Epson 1500w see the link below!
