Bright, durable colors and much quicker heat set times than Yudu fabric ink which I had been using. The Supercover White ink is amazing! Glad I made the switch.

Comments about Permaset Aqua Fabric Ink:

This is the best paint I've used, and I've tried a bunch of brands. I prefer water-based ink but was disappointed that I couldn't find ones that were opaque enough (white & yellow were the worst). I tried plastisol, but that was way too messy for home use. This stuff was the solution.

My specific observations… Still has SOFT HAND, but more of a plastisol feel in how it covers. The OPAQUE COMPLETELY COVERS the fabric color, very slightly raised, stretchy/rubbery feel that doesn't crack. In my experience, it DOESN'T DRY IN THE SCREEN ANYWHERE NEAR AS FAST AS OTHERS (like Speedball and Jacquard, which have their merits, particularly in some colors). I do almost all darker colors, so I use mostly super-cover; but I have tried standard cover on white or light color shirts and that works well, too.

You DO NEED THE EXTENDER, not so much b/c of fast drying, but because some of the opaque colors are VERY THICK and needed to be "watered" down for best results (white and yellow, especially). Also, I tend to use mostly 220 & 156 screens, both work well as long as you dilute it to a consistency that works. As it came, the white in particular would have "clogged" up a 110 screen even. So, just experiment; it didn't take long to figure out. (And this isn't a complaint. Too thick I can work with; too thin I cannot.) I've used it on polyester (like under armour) and it works great. In sum, this stuff is totally worth the extra few bucks—fewer mistakes, EASY/FAST CURING (relative to others). And Blick is cheaper than every other place I have checked.

This is the ink I use for my Yudu screen printing machine. For some reason, the Yudu inks will not hold up to repeated washings in all colors. I know that the Permaset inks, when applied per the instructions on the bottle, will last and last. I recommend this ink to all Yudu screen printer users.

It's really easy to work with, and shorter time to heat set compared to speedball ink. The consistency of this is better too, and I get better results.

Comments about Permaset Aqua Fabric Ink:

I absolutely love these inks. The prints are beautiful. The Aqua line (or one coat of Supercover) can barely be felt on the fabric after it's been washed.

I frequently see it stated that the Aquas aren't suitable for darker fabrics. Some are great though and make beautiful faded-look prints.

Personally, I find that the metallics look and print better when diluted substantially.

If you misprint you can immediately soak the shirt in water and rub and it will completely come out. Simply wash off the screen at the press with water and a rag. You have to gently flood the image after printing to keep it from drying in the screen, which can happen within just a few minutes. If you are going to be printing for an extended time, mist the ink with water from time to time and mix it in.

Highly recommended over plastisol.

I purchased The White Super Opaque Permaset Aqua Fabric Ink and I am very happy with the results. This ink has great coverage and works with a single coating. Other inks I have tried are not as opaque and look terrible on black or dark fabrics. The super opaque product covers evenly and leaves a really nice texture (not too heavy). Highly recommended!
