FN-INK™ helps screen printers that don’t have a lot of extra time or money get the most effective and economical plastisol inks, bolstering productivity and saving money in the process.
FN-INK™ is a non-phthalate, ready to use plastisol ink that works great right out of the bucket, and is not a big financial hit to the ole wallet. FN-INK™ was designed by screen printers, for screen printers to be easy to work with. The FN-INK™ line includes 15-ready-to-use colors.
The fact that FN-INK™ easily cures at lower temperatures (260 degrees), means shops can see real gains in production. Financially Necessary Ink was manufactured to be a great ink at a great retail price, day in and day out. Giving printers the peace of mind that their hard earned dollars are getting the best ROI with this FN-INK™.

For single print colors, colors will reproduce best over white - light substrate or single white base plate on dark substrates. When direct printing over dark cotton, print-flash-print using lower mesh screens.
Flash at 180-200°F, for 3 - 5 seconds. Each shop’s operating parameters might be faster or shorter depending on your production variable. Cure at 260°F, the ink is cured when it hits 260 throughout the entirety of the ink layer.
If you are able to keep temperatures low in your dryer and hit cure temp* closer to 260°, you can keep the dyes in the polyester fabrics from bleeding into your inks. To briefly summarize why this happens, most polyester fabric’s dye/temperature is set between 270°-300°. When the polyester thread hits the temperature range again, the dyes return to a gaseous state and are absorbed by the plastisol inks. This is why there are low bleed inks on the market.
But as stated above, if you can cure your ink below the bleed point of the polythread, you do not have to worry about dye migration!
*Cure is attained when the ENTIRE ink layer reaches 260°, meaning that the ink is 260° from the top to the bottom of the ink layer. If you are using a laser gun to read the surface temp, this WILL be misleading. Laser temp guns give you a reflective reading. When tested side-by-side with a donut probe, you will see temperature differences as great as 120°-150° early in the cure cycle (the donut probe accurately measures the contact temperature where the crosshairs reside). As you reach the end of the dryer, those temperatures will get closer together. As a direct result – you will need to read a surface temp as little as 60° above what stated cure temp is and as much as 100° depending on how short your dryer tunnel is and how hot your settings are. This is due to a few things:
When changing your dryer to low cure temps, follow the recommendations and parameters laid out above and do wash testing to ensure your new dryer settings are reaching full cure.
Ink degrader or press wash.
Store at 65-90°F (18-32°C), avoiding direct sunlight. Ideal when used within one year of manufacturing date.

Worked great on polyester shirts!
Wow, thanks for the feedback on your experience using the FN-INK. This ink is designed for Cotton garments so its cool you were able to achieve a nice print on a polyester. Feel free to share some pictures. Happy printing :)
The mixing system has really streamlined the work process for projects where *** matching is important. No more mixing by eye and the ink prints very well. We will keep ordering these inks in future.
Hey Screen Printer! Thanks for the fantastic review on our FN-INK. We are so happy you have discovered the greatness and do recommend for other printers! Keep on Powering the PRINT!
This ink is great. It hides well, dries quickly, goes on smooth. My concern is that it doesn't last as long. You get fewer tees finished before running out.
Hi Charles! Thanks for leaving a review on the FN-INK Orange, we really appreciate all feedback. I have issued a case on your order and reached out directly to you by email! Let me know if you want to talk more about the ink, we are here to help! Thanks, The Ryonet Team
The ink is smooth and the color is a real true orange, however, it was not as opaque as I thought it was going to be. Had to underbase it pretty thick. But...shirtsnlook amazing and the customer is happy. Great product.
Michelle! Your feedback is FN fantastic! :D Although the opacity may be a bit different from our previous Lava colors, the true color is where this ink line really shines :) Less opacity fillers, less white, but MORE of that bright pigment! I'm so FN glad you FN love our ink :) Best, Kayli B
I was hesitant at first, having used other colors of FN Ink and how runny they are, but this orange worked great, and the low cure temp is perfect for my current setup.
Hello Anonymous, Thank you for taking the time to let us know how great you find the FN Orange Ink, we really appreciate your feedback! Keep being awesome, happy printing :) - cstake@ryonet.com
