WOW, so I just ordered a 5 gal of their Superior white, Non-Phthalate, and a gallon of reducer, with shipping for about 100 bucks less than I normally pay for a 5 gal of wilflex quick white. Things that make ya go hmmmmmm. Can't wait to try this stuff, lots o guys been raving about it. Kevin was super cool to deal with too!

I'm still trying to order a gallon of it.

*shrug*

I email and then get no response, follow up and get a confused response, clarify and get no response.

I thought someone posted they did not have a phalate free ink?

And yes I am just finishing up a five gallon of the smooth and it has been perfect all the way.

Mike, they have phthalate free in smooth and superior. I went with the superior and see how that goes, he said a lot of people love the smooth, but I figure I can reduce amounts if I need to. It was good to hear that they have the phthalate free thought. 5 gals $195. 5 gal of wilflex quick white right now is 365, that's nuts!!!!!!!! can't wait to try this stuff out! He also sold me on trying a straight liquid reducer, instead of curable reducer. I had no idea, curable reducers have all the bad components that we are trying to avoid in the ink. The thick part of the curable reducer ends up being freakin pvc, doesn't quite make sense going with the clean ink if you reduce it only to put the crap back in it. Kevin was very informative on the phone.

Love my superior on press. A little stringy but damn I NEVER have to recenter, doesn't climb, great one hit opacity and smooth lay-down.

screenprintguy

REally!!! wow, that I'm looking forward to. I always have to reduce quick white to keep it from climbing, and it has to be waaaay reduced to use as an underbase, it has puff in it. Kevin said the miami whites don't have puff, but are very opaque. Still looks like I'm going to be stuck buying 115 dollar a gallon poly white since they don't make one at Miami, but the savings on this helps out a lot!

Gilligan

Yeah, you would think. But no phone call from him.

The smooth I got blows quick white away! Opacity is much better, it is a bit more stcky but some simple adjustments and it flows extremely well. Good to know its phalate free.

Only thing I dont like about using a curable reducer is it changes the flash time,, not always good when your using a quart flash and your palettes are piping hot.

I missed a call from him a while back and did not call him back. It would almost seem cost prohibitive to buy from someone completely across the country with shipping.
