Is this available in a matte black, water base?

No, we currently do not have a matte black in water base ink.

Can you also mix this ink into plastisol which is oil based?

No, mixing this ink into plastisol is not recommended as it may affect cure time and cause cracking on the garment.

Will this ink bond to 100% polyester?

No, it will start flaking after a few washes on 100% polyester. We do not recommend using it.

Does this ink work on 100% cotton t-shirts?

Yes, it works on 100% cotton t-shirts.

I print light gray sweaters but after the first wash the color fades tremendously. Why did that happen?

Water base discharge ink requires about a minute and a half cure time at around 330 degrees. If the sweaters are not 100% cotton, discharge will not work and the color may fade.

Is this actually discharge ink? The package just says waterbased.

Yes, Warm Red is ready to use as a waterbased ink, but if you add the discharge activator, it can be used as a discharge ink as well.

What do you mean by this item cannot be discharged? Can this be poured into a spraying device?

No, this ink cannot be poured into a spraying device.

Ecotex® Screen Printing Ink Blue 5 Gallon - 640 oz. - Water Based Ink, Silk Screen Ink, Water Soluble Ink for Shirt Printing - Screen Printing Supplies for Screen Printing Kit

The Ecotex Yellow Water Based Screen Printing Ink is a popular choice for fabric printing. While some customers have encountered issues with the Consistency and odor of the ink, others have had successful results with proper dilution and mixing with additives. One user reported that after some experimentation, the ink produced bright colors with a soft hand feel after washing. However, there were complaints about the ink clogging screens and an unpleasant odor in some batches. Overall, the ink appears to be effective when properly manipulated and used.

Pros

Produces bright colors with a soft hand
Provides good results with proper experimentation

Cons

May clog screens
InConsistent odor in different batches
