Dischargeability: D due to the poly double dye that will not discharge only 50% of this garment discharges and is not recommended for bright discharge printing.
Dye Migration: Dyed polyester fabrics have a tendency to dye migrate even though we carefully heat set the poly dye. Test with your ink set your dryer parameters for best results. Avoid hot stacking and catch bins to avoid potential ghosting, zebra striping or dye migration. Do not package product until completely cool. Cooling stations or fans are recommended.Print TDS
Screen Mesh: 156-230 mesh for a nice soft and pliable ink deposit. If possible, use thin thread mesh for more control over your print deposit.
Ink Type: While all ink types can be used, to avoid dye migration issues, low cure or low bleed inks or catalyst additives are recommended for plastisol or water base printing. This color is not recommended for discharge.
Flash: Flash long enough to evaporate the water in WB inks. You should not need to exceed 220 degrees and 10 seconds. Ink should be dry to the touch. Plastisol should be around 180-220 degrees for under 6 seconds depending on the ink used. Ink should be tack free and not dry to the touch.
Curing: Follow manufacturers' cure recommendations. There are many different inks with different cure temps on the market. These temps range from 250-320 degrees. Do not exceed 350 degrees on the garment and do not exceed more than 3 min 30 seconds cure time within your dryer.
For optimal soft hand printing: Incorporate a smoothing screen, an Iron, or a tool like the Stampinator to smooth out your prints and help create a thinner and more pliable print.
