Tri Mountain Coats-Lining bleeding through?

I have been running for several months a one-color logo on the 8800 Mountaineer jacket from Tri-Mountain. This week I had an issue with the Osha orange and red jacket where after it was finished, it looked like I had taken a black marker and run it all the way around the logo. Here's the interesting thing; the osha jacket was run on one machine and the red ones were run on another machine! So I know its not machine grease or dirt and the thread I'm using is Madeira 40. Also, this logo is not a heavy thread count (3000) and is lettering only! Ever had this happen?

Is the jacket lined or fused by any chance?

We figured it out, it was the black cutaway backing. Called Madeira and they are running tests. For whatever reason the backing is making black marks on the windproof/water resistant outer shell, especially on the OSHA orange. They said they have had probems before but only when someone tried to use black backing on a light colored garment. These coats have a dark fleece lining so thats why I chose to use black.
