McBee Supply Inks Solve Polyester Printing Challenges

Sept 25, 2008

In both laboratory and field testing, Barrier Clear ink has shown to drastically reduce and eliminate dye migration on troublesome 100% polyester fabrics, according to supplier McBee Supply.

Houston-based screen printing supplier McBee Supply offers two new inks that solve the common challenges associated with printing on stretchy, polyester material. Unistretch ink is available premixed in white or clear, and can be added to the company’s Athletic ink or overprinted on top of a flashed color. “Designs printed with Unistretch will help elongation and resist cracking when the design is stretched beyond normal proportions,” says Mike McDonnell, president.

The company’s Barrier Clear ink is formulated as a low-bleed clear ink that can be used as a direct-print underbase in conjunction with a low-bleed ink, or, print as a last-down clear on transfers. “In both laboratory and field testing, Barrier Clear has been shown to drastically reduce and eliminate dye migration on troublesome 100% polyester or polyester-blended fabrics,” McDonnell says. – H.H.
