Really good ink ❤️❤️ lived up to the tests you given it

thank you, Lee Stuart!) very nice print !)

You are still our hero Lee

I love how you explain your videos with great details thanks

once again killing it on the vid ! my fave part was when you talked about running the pantone colors down the dryer. was about to rip into you about curing temps... then you spoke up about it ! pro move. pro move !

Great review, keeping it real and honest. Covered all the crucial bases.

NIce Room! And informative video as usual. I love that you do all sorts of trials to find the best way to use things. Putting in the fucking work... Keep it up!

I'm starting my home print shop with fn ink tomorrow I'll be doing my first shirts thank you for the inspiration and tips

Great video as always…keep it Going

As always a great video and really well done review dude.

Nice review. Copped a QT not long ago, looking forward to trying it out.

I am just starting out in screen printing well waiting for my Riley equipment to come in. Basicly bought same set up but went 6x6 instead of the 8x8. I actually have watched almost all of your printing and start up videos. Defently giving me allot of good pointers to start from when it all comes in. Just figuring out embroidery while I wait lol. Keep up the great work and thanks for all the info.

Great vid Lee!

Awesome shit like always ! Thanks for the review on this .

I just used this FN Ink on my last run. It made for fast work. Only 50 front print, all white. The flash was like 6 seconds then the second hit was nice and bright. Definitely liked it.

Just stumbled across your videos not too long ago. Really enjoying your video content. Lot of informative material for someone trying to start their own apparel business. Keep it up :)

just today i was having snail trails, and in my case there was too much ink in my screen. the problem went away when i removed some of the ink. im new to printing but managed to sort it out.

great review and appreciate your honesty - you SHOULD be getting paid for this in my opinion - your content is far superior than what they have been producing in the last few years and it will drive sales - anyway - keep up the good work. I really like your content. PEACE

Great info!!! Thank You

Would you be able to do a video explaining when to use the different ranges of the mesh screens?

Try a flood then pull stroke like clearing while the screen is above the print and then push. That’s how we do all our whites.

It was like I was watching an episode of Mythbusters: White Plastisol! Loved it! Thanks Lee!

I just bought some of their ink last night. Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, and Orange (orange for fun). Then I saw this video this morning, at first I was like, oops did I jump the gun. After watching the video, I think I made a good choice. Can't wait for it to come to play around with.

Still need a red bull sled on that shelf LoL

Hello Mate, I see people using Plastisol to make fishing lures.. i was wondering if i can use plastisol ink to make fishing lures or does it require a specific type of plastisol to make fishing lures?? Thanking you in advance..

Great job on your first review. What blank shirts do you use?

Cool review for ink and all... you would make some killer motorcycle or gear reviews too. Did you see the game on Sunday?

Nice colors on the orange gray combo. Did you mix the orange ink yourself?

Lee, we need that klx video you promised us

Glad to see working class shirt is coming back.

I was told not to use a drill bit to steer the ink. I was told to fold it over to mix it up. The drill bit steers it too fast and heats up the ink and activates the curing agent. That’s what I was told by Mcbee Supply.

Hey Lee I’m about to knock out a camo print. Underbase tan, green and highlight white - I’ve never used there Kelly green is this something that would work good for a camo print (woodland) thanks man

Ryonet sent me some of the FN-White a couple months ago. My conclusions lined up with yours. I've been through two more gallons of the stuff since I tried it out.

The main thing holding me back from getting this ink is the fact that when using it as an underbase, I can’t use regular inks as overprints. Ryonet has recommended against using the 2 together. But I guess if you have a bunch of other low cure colors, this seems pretty good.

I had a problem with the cure temp I had dryer set at 290 and done a rush job it really don’t cure at 260. I was using the yellow gold FN. and got FN burnt.

Great video Lee. Any chance you ran wash tests?

Love the Video.Just Curious what was the Reason for the brand name?

Awesome content as always.

Lee looking to get in contact with you about help with a brand logo is there a possibility to do so?

Hey man, great channel/feed. I have watched quite a few of your videos and they are very informative. So thank you for that! I was going to ask you about this ink. Do you still use it? I know you have some sort of connection with Ryonet, so Im sure you can't say anything too negative about this ink, but do you still use it? Also, what is your current favorite white ink? Like you, I used to use Epic Lava from Wilflex, purchased through Ryonet. And also like you, I found it to be a bear to work with. I actually use to use mineral spirits (small amounts) to loosen it up, and that worked pretty well without affecting the opacity. Then I got a sample of International Coatins Legacy white and its creaminess blew me away. That is now my go to white as its pretty damn amazing all around. Only problem is that price. You mention Rutland's Street Fighter white, do you still use it? I tried some Rutland white a couple years ago and it was like cement. I still have a half a gallon that will prob never be used. I also got a sample quart of FN from Ryonet about a year ago. I tried it on some 100% cotton and did not like the opacity very much. Even after a p/f/p it was not up to my standards as far as opacity goes. It was also not as smooth as what I could achieve with Epic Lava or Legacy white. Ok, im rambling, but more questions, is your clothing brand on IG? I also have a clothing brand, Observer, or @observe_co on IG. Anyway, I might look you up on IG. Finally, I would love to get you on the phone for a min with some questions about some of the stuff you covered in this video. I am like a mad scientist trying to get the perfect plastisol prints. I have an on-press smoothing technique that I never see mentioned anyway, and its far better than smoothing screens or rollers, as ive tried both extensively. Smoothing screens take up a print head, and on a manual machine, that is not alway possible. If im on a 6 color machine and have to print a 6 color job, a smoothing screen aint gonna cut it. So I came up with something else and it has absolutely changed the game for me. It does add a little time to each round, but considering the smoothness Im getting from it (like a heat press almost) its more than worth it. Anyway, my apologies for the long winded comment. I just absolutely geek out to this stuff and can talk about it for hours. haha thanks for reading and hit me up on IG if you can. Oh and let me know if and when you might have like 15-20 mins to chat. You know your shit and I think we could share some ideas. Thanks man!

Mesh size? And any overcuring problems when set the conveyor dryer back to higher temperature?

Have you (or anyone else here) experienced this ink getting much, much thicker as you print? I recently used this stuff on a manual job just doing white *flash* white. I was very pleased with how smooth it was at the beginning of the job but it started to get very thick as I continued. I assume this is just user error on my end and maybe the platens getting warm throughout the run was enough to thicken up this low cure ink as apposed to being no problem with the other standard inks I’ve used before but I’m curious to know if anyone else has experienced this.

When you say it took you 7-8 seconds, does that mean when you print/flash/print to do multiple layers of white, completely cured or just enough to apply the next coat of white?

great review man. I actually bought some FN white ink and I gotta be honest it really just doesn't clear the screen that great. I have to do 3 passes to get a good coat. I really wanna try street fighter white. Does it work well on polyester cotton blends?

What's your temps on the flasher and dryer?

Whats the brand of the ink you usually use? Rutland?

Been hearing people complain about curing issues with this ink, but you never know the agreement with Ryonet and their people that review their ink.

My push strokes always blur. How do you do either or so perfectly?

What's a manual roller? What's it used for?

Hello brother can you explain how we can get colour mixing recipe?

late to the video buttttttt what mesh count sceen did you use for second design? 160 aswell?

hi lee , Is there any printing ink that is good for printing t-shirt aside plastisol.

$74 a gallon today

Hey, great video. I’m new to the game and need to know if FN ink has harsh or strong odors. Thanks!

Were can i get this for 50$ a gallon? I can only find it for 80

Hello Lee Stuart, I have the 6 screen, 2 platen Riley Hopkins Semi Pro Max. How many inches should I set my flash dryer above my platens when I cure my hoodies that have a thicker matterial vs a thinner t shirt. And how many minutes shoud I cure my hoodies with my flash dryer?

How did screen printers do in 2020?... Business as usual or did a lot have to close shop?

The biggest thing that I hear people are having from a few groups is that the ink washes out and/or flakes off after one wash even at curing the ink from 260 to 330 degrees. To see if this ink lives up to it's hype, should have done a wash test. I heard this ink prints awesome, but the wash test is the biggest issue from what I have been reading from various groups.

Lee, What is the red substance on the back of your screen frames?? I have never seen that.

Great review. Would love to know how that 2 with underbase does in a few wash tests! Thanks for putting out the content!

So what mesh count did you use on your white base?

Does FN Ink gloss or flat ink print on t-shirt?

Have you tried the EZ Grip squeegee? They switched me from a pusher to a pullet.

Is there any way to restore old plastisol inks buddy of mine gave me some old ink before I throw it away I would like to try to save it any ideas

Dehydration is a common cause of dark circles under your eyes. When your body is not receiving the proper amount of water, the skin beneath your eyes begins to look dull and your eyes look sunken. Lee hydrate bring the handsome back!

What mesh did you use for the first go?

Exelente video

Have you ever tired inkcraft ? Haven't tried it yet but would like to support a Canadian company. I use FN ink right now but green galaxy Canada has insane shipping rates for me.

do u use rutland sf white to print on 50/50 as well?

What mesh count and how many coats of emulsion did you use.

what is with the smell?

What about ecotex?

What blanks did you use in this video?

What plastisol ink do you like best?

一如既往的优秀，棒！

An affiliated review? Those aren’t biased

5:23 ah! 2 colors that a Spanish 🐃's eyes can't tell apart. (by 🐃, l mean bull. You probably knew that)

this has to be the worst ink ive ever used. it prints smooth but cracks very very easily

wassup Lee. If you're using FN ink and you want to mix for pantone colors, which mixing system would you use?
