Flexible, Water-Based Inks for Soft, Vibrant Fabric Prints
Speedball FLEX™ Fabric Screen Printing Inks provide bold, opaque color with a soft, flexible feel that moves naturally with the fabric. They are perfect for printing on cotton, polyester, rayon, linen blends, and synthetic materials. Unlike many fabric inks that dry stiff, FLEX inks stay smooth and comfortable without cracking or peeling.
These water-based inks offer strong coverage on both light and dark fabrics and can be blended to create custom shades. Once heat set, they stay bright, flexible, and washfast for the life of the garment.
For best results, let the ink dry overnight before heat setting. Rushing the process can cause poor adhesion. Always use parchment paper when pressing to protect the heating surface and ensure even heat.
Heat Setting Guidelines:
- 100% Cotton: 300°F for 1 minute
- Triblend: 300°F for 1 minute
- Polyester Blend: 300°F for 40 seconds
