the best 1 part in my book is Imagetechnology ITX, but it will only last about 3 seconds with discharge inks, so it's def a plastisol only ink.

If you want a one pot that works with discharge we have customers using Saati PHU (Post Exposed) for 500+ prints with no hardener.

And we also have the Image Technology ITX that brad mentioned above  ;)

This question was one of the reasons that I created this document.  It was in hopes to get some solid data that could be extrapolated for others to be able to make judgments on emulsions quickly and easily.

Maybe it can still be used as people add to it.

I like it, there just needs to be a way to organize it better.  maybe by rating or brand or something.

I would like to add a couple things to it, i will see if I have time.

It should be able to be sorted quite easily.

That is the idea... once there is a substantial amount of data then playing with the data should be easy.

I just think we need a larger sampling of data before we get too crazy with the cheese-whiz.

Just a note, our friend noortrd, the OP, is in Pakistan, I believe, so access to as many choices as we have may be a dream, and he may be stuck with only the choices he gave.

In fact, noortrd, from whom do you get your supplies?

CCI has a new one pot called VPR that is water resistant right out of the bucket. If you post expose you could easily print discharge in excess of 1,000 impressions with no hardener.

Saati PHU. Post expose and if I'm lucky and it's sunny leave it outside for a bit.

I have run a couple 400 pcs jobs with no issues, smaller jobs not a problem.
