Hi Guys, I have a friend who's trying to get approved to the board, his name is Dave Crombie, All-American Screenprint, in Worcester (or thereabouts) MA. I spoke with him about joining this forum to get help he needs from time to time. He just sent me a text that he needs some CMYK seps for a job. He asked about having Illustrator changing the image to CMYK, but I told him that those profiles are for paper, not t-shirt work. Can someone help him out?

Are these close to drop in for Union Tru Tone Triple strength? That's what we used and no longer could get.  I would like to stick to what we used or close.  A couple tweaks would be fine but I know we didn't like going to a "regular" strength CMYK system last time we tried it.

InkTek is the only set that I know of with a triple strength. I mentioned the base to be available for cutting intensity of colors when needed and also to make your own process white. If you can get in touch with Kevin at River City he may be able to get some samples to you.

Avient has a set but no triple strength. River City Supply has InkTek, two sets, regular and triple strength with a base available too.

Used a ton of TruTone many years back. Check out the FB link from John Magee for some TruTone history.

I'm not saying it's any better or worse, but I've been using Wilflex for years and never an issue.

I thought they stopped making the Tru Tone inks? And I can not find them.
