Title: Triangle Alpine White
Post by: Prosperi-Tees on July 25, 2012, 02:45:02 PM
Love this stuff! Lays down smooth and soft, very creamy straight out of the bucket. Has anyone else tried it? It does have a little bit of puff in it though but I dont mind it.

Yes, I have been working with a quart sample they sent me.  It caught me off guard the first time I used it, the ink almost poured out of the container.  The stuff is amazing.

LOL so was I! I was thinking I gotta stir this up for awhile. But when I opened it and stuck a knife it was a dream. Stir for 10 seconds and on the press.

Not Triangle, but I just tried some IC 711 Non-pthalate white. Creamy, smooth mat down, very bright finish, quite opaque without a lot of shine. Might be my stock ink from now on. Hardly any stirring (although a hot garage in Florida in July might not be much of a thixotropic benchmark to gauge any ink by).

Black and Charcoal Gildan 2000s. PFP thru a 156 coated 2/2. It was actually a little thick and probably should have went on a 180 or possibly a one stroke 110.

I have used it on all different colors through a 156.  I do a pfp and get some really good coverage.

That sounds very interesting. Thanks for the tip.

714 is pretty good too, printed some 50/50's with it agaisnt my better judgement and they still came out great. Has good fiber mat down as well. Sounds like your 711. I picked up this 5 gallon at a discount from my supplier (cost of a gallon), about to go back and see if there's anymore left! Drips off the ink knife like black ink.
