Low-Temperature Cure Inks For Dummies Low-Temperature Cure Inks For Dummies Volume 2 Plastisol Ink Prep Curing: Cure at 132Â° C/270Â° F Flash at 82-104Â° C/180-200Â°F 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 âStretch Testâ 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: ÂBefore 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.

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 90Âº F (32Âº C) can cause the ink to start to cure while it's still in the container. We highly recommend printing with an under base white when printing on a dark garment Click Here For Safety Data Sheet Click Here for Rapid Cure Color Guide and Hex Codes

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great ink for great shirts.
*by A***R on April 27, 2025*

The plastisol ink is great. We flash heat at 290 and have no issues. Better than the two part ink, hands down. We see the ink thicken up after twenty minutes of air time on the screen. That helps with our high mesh count screens. Dries in a flash for good looking shirts. Clean up is easy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seemed good to a novice, worked okay with xTool
*by H***S on April 26, 2024*

I am a complete novice, this was literally my first/only time trying a plastisol ink, so I have no point of reference if this stuff is good or bad. But for me, it seemed to work just fine printing t-shirts using my xTool screen printing setup. I ended up starting with the ink at the rear of the screen, doing a full pressure pull stroke, flipping the squeegee around and then doing a full pressure "reverse pull" back across to bring the ink back to the rear of the screen. I tried more conventional flood/print approach, but got best results just using full pressure for both pulls. It was definitely easier to work with than the xTool included water base ink that dries so ridiculously fast. Once I got the hang of working with this ink and figured out the pressure/ squeegee angle that gave a good print, I was able to turn out 30 shirts pretty quickly with few errors. I used a single quarter between the shirt and the frame to set the off-contact. Ink seemed to cure easily at the specified temp and has lasted fine so far. I will say to do your research on how much ink is needed for your project, I overbought by a huge amount and from what I understand, it does go bad so I doubt I will be able to use it all before it has gone bad. I should have bought a smaller size. I definitely recommend using plastisol instead of water based ink for fellow newbies, the slightly more unpleasant cleanup at the end is worth the much easier printing process with no worries about things drying out while you are printing. I'd also recommend getting some (and by some, I mean many) junk shirts to practice on first because it took me a while to figure out what combination of pressure and angles produced a good print. And err on the side of pushing less ink through at first and work your way up to more, because once you start blowing out the bottom of your design and getting ink all over the bottom of the screen, its a pain to get the screen cleaned up. So start slow and scarce and work your way up until you are pushing out the right amount of ink to get a full print without forcing too much extra ink out onto the bottom of the screen.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Would buy again
