Re: NF Discharge shipping
When discharge first come out one of our reps put the willies up our crew talking up formaldehyde, and respirators, showering after printing, effects and stand down time, ventilation, had to be printed wearing a darthvader or stormtrooper suit etc.
Needless to say the whole health and safety aspect put us off and we have never looked at it again, and in this country not much is printed outside standard plastisols, no flocking, very little DTG, a limited amount of foil. Pretty droll and unexciting i suppose.
However, in seeing discharge on YouTube I must admit it looks just like water base, simple and easy........ I farm out a few jobs in China by discharge, but haven't been at the factory during a run. We pay fifty cents up there for a ten colour print a bit over A3 in size.
