SpeedballFabric Block Printing Ink, 5oz, Black, No Heat Set Required for Textiles, Permanent Formula, Made in USA

This ink is great and incredibly opaque. Since it’s pretty much the only opaque white option for linocut on fabric I’m not gonna give it too much of a hard time but I do wish it stayed wetter longer. It dries quite quickly and becomes difficult to use. I have had to get a toothbrush to clean it out of my Lino blocks because it gets caught in the tiny crevices and won’t come off without a good brushing. I might be too used to using water based inks so take that into consideration when reading my review. It works best with 100% cotton or linen with no stretch element but gets the job done on stretch fabric with only a little greying. I almost exclusively print on black with white ink so I use this product constantly and my biggest complaint is the smell. If you’re used to oil painting it smells similar to oil paint which isn’t terrible but definitely leave your windows open when printing.

Worked well!

It rolls out well, stays on the shirt I printed on semi well and cleans up easy! I let some dry on the tray that I was using to roll out the ink on, and I was terrified it would be permanent, but it came up as easily as acrylic paint!

I used this ink in conjunction with the Speedball Premium Mounted Linoleum Block (4313). The ink was a bit thinner than I had expected, but I suspect that's more a matter of my inexperience, rather than a product defect. I was very satisfied with the prints I achieved. Even printing on fabric and with shallow features on the block, this ink maintained a very good level of detail. Moreover, I was able to pull over 25 prints from a 6"x7" image, and still have at least 3/4 of the bottle left.One caveat (and the reason this is four stars, not five): there is a very strong odor when using this product. I'm not sure if that's the case with all block printing inks, but the chemical smell was very strong. However, I did not get lightheaded (even though my workspace was poorly ventilated) and my roommate (who has strong chemical sensitivities) didn't experience any difficulties. The odor faded quickly, though it was still detectable 48 hours later (but not overpowering).Overall, I would recommend this product. Unless I come across a comparable option advertised as low odor, I will buy this same product again in the future.

Good bright color, easy to use obviously, drying time is average overall good good. This bread is fantastic and I'll keep coming back.

I was looking for ink to use on a canvas tote bag that wouldn't wash off or ruin whatever it was washed with. I also wanted it to stand up to daily use. I bought this based on recommendations from other printmaking sites, and I'm so glad I did. The pigment was perfect and the ink was so smooth. It felt like regular printmaking ink. I waited the 2 weeks or so to cure it before washing it, and it didn't bleed, fade, or wash out. There was no transfer to other fabrics, and the print looked exactly like it did before washing it. I will say that I was feeling very impatient waiting for it to cure because I wanted to test it out in the washer before finishing the other totes. Now, I use this ink for any cloth I print on. I will definitely buy this again!

Performs as described, proper viscosity, good opaqueness and value, easy clean-up.👍🏼

Washes well doesn't faid goes on well and a tube goes a long way good value for the money lovely choice of colors 👌

El producto es caro en relación a la cantidad que viene, ocupas mucho y si hace frío se seca muy rápido.

This ink is great for fabric but I don't know how it holds up in the laundry machine

This is a really good quality ink ..minimal bleeding and good strong colour , the drying time was slightly less than the 7days described but I hund them out in the washing line each day to speed them along ...the prints are lasting well on totes with regular use .would definately use this again.

was worried about the small size - but goes a long way and end result great.

Il migliore tra quelli ke ho provato davvero paccato per il prezzo, ma purtroppo tutte le cose per il linoleum costicchiano
