For best results follow the steps below.
Mixing Information:
- Water-based printing: Our ink can be used straight out of the bottle as a traditional water-based ink. We recommend only doing this technique on light color garments.
- Discharge Printing: This ink can also be used as a discharge ink by adding the discharge powder. When using as a discharge ink, add enough discharge powder to the amount of ink you need for the print run. This will be somewhere in between 3-5% by weight. Mix thoroughly to make sure no chunks or grains are visible. Once the powder is added to the ink it will last for 8 hours.
- Activate just enough ink for the job at hand.

United Statesthank you for the wonderful product. very happy with my purchase from screen print direct. i will definitely buy again!
i just bought a discharge white ink with the activator and i really like how it came out. nice and soft print on 100% cotton. i only use water based inks and this ink is great. i only wish it had the mixing instructions on the containers. they are on the website so i was able to get it with no problems. cant wait to get other colors.
