If you’re tired of plastisol ink sticking to the back of your screens, it’s time to check your screen tension and your off-contact right now. It’s usually that simple. Adjusting these settings kills that annoying “picking” effect before it ruins your designs. When you get this right, you can finally run your automatic press at full speed yet your colors will stay sharp all day long.

Your ink probably just needs a good workout. Most plastisol is thixotropic and that means it gets thick when it sits still but gets creamy when you move it. We recommend you stir the ink for at least 60 seconds before you add any chemicals. If it is still like a brick after stirring then you should add 1-3% curable reducer by weight. This keeps your colors bright and it makes your prints feel like clouds on a t-shirt.

If you are looking for the absolute best balance between vibrant colors, insane durability, and production efficiency for your clothing line, plastisol ink is the answer. At HONG RUI SHENG, we’ve seen thousands of small brands struggle with fading prints or complicated setups.
