Title: mock water base achieved
Post by: Shawn (EIP) on August 11, 2012, 04:27:17 PM

I printed 125 5 color yellow oraganic anvil tees today with 50% IC sentri base and 50% ink through 355's. The print feels and looks like discharge without the headache.

Watch out for fibrilation though!  Plastisol must bridge the entire image area and matt the fibers done effectively or your print will get fuzzed out after a few washings.

What is Sentry base all about?

There is also a Sentri ready-to-print black, and a Sentri curable reducer to both extend and reduce viscosity for super soft prints

I have a 5 gallon of sentri black it's really nice stuff but a bit pricey a gallon of sentri by itself is 45 bucks not too bad.

Sorry to say but the only thing you achieved was soft hand plastisol printing.

No matter how hard you try, you can't fake water.

the last gallon of black WB i bought.. cost me 28 bucks.
