Nylon White Plastisol Ink is our most versatile bleed-resistant white — a high-opacity white that prints on nylon, polyester, 100% cotton and blends, direct or as an underbase, blocking dye migration so it stays clean and bright. On nylon it bonds with the required catalyst. Cures at 290–300°F. CPSIA-compliant and phthalate-free, made in Hackensack, New Jersey. Pint through 5 gallon. Heat cure. Made in the USA. ⚠ Printing on nylon? Add the catalyst. For nylon, mix in Nylon Bond 289 Additive so the ink bonds to the fabric. On cotton, polyester and blends, no catalyst is needed. Also available in larger quantities — 30-gallon and 55-gallon drums; call 877-937-6400 for volume and discount pricing.
