Rapid Cure Underbase White Screen Printing Plastisol Ink by Screen Print Direct® is the best white plastisol ink to print under other colors you really want to pop on the garment. Rapid Cure Low-Temperature Cure Plastisol is a premium plastisol screen printing ink that cures as low as 270°. Our under-base ink has no puff additive giving it a very low profile on the garment. A low profile is ideal with an under base because once the final top coat of ink is applied to the garment the print remains soft and breathable. 

This low bleed ink works great with a wide variety of blends including polyester blends. Say goodbye to garment shrinking and scorching with low-temperature cure fabric ink. The ink's lower cure temp saves production time and helps ensure the garment is cured properly without expensive conveyor dryers. The ink's texture is creamy and short-bodied.

We do not recommend this ink as topcoat ink or a stand-a-lone white, it is not opaque enough to be printing alone.

Curing Temp:

• Cure at 132° C/270° F for at least one minute
• Flash at 82-104° C/180-200°F  (7 - 12 seconds)

Clean-Up:

• On the press - Ecotex® Screen Printing Plastisol Press Wash/Ink Degradant
• In the sink - Ecotex® Screen Printing Plastisol Screen Wash/Ink Degradant

Flash and Curing Guidelines: Generally it will take 5-10 washes to fully test the cure, but if the ink is seriously under-cured, the print will show deterioration after only 1-3 washings washes. Another way to test your print quickly is doing the “Stretch Test” stretch the print roughly 2/3 of the T-Shirt; if the print cracks and does not retract back it means you under-cured.

General Testing:  Before you do any large print, we recommend doing a stretch test and a wash test to ensure you cured and printed correctly before going into production. Increase cure time if testing fails. We recommend only using natural fibers best results will be seen on 100% cotton.

✔️Pro Tips: Plastisol inks do not dye fabric like the traditional inks. Plastisol inks wrap around the fibers and make a mechanical bond with the fabric. Store plastisol inks at room temperature. Prolonged exposure to temperatures above 90º F (32º C) can cause the ink to start to cure while it's still in the container.
