Are you wondering which Wilflex white ink is the perfect fit for your screen printing needs? We're here to help you navigate through the options and make an informed choice. Let's dive into the three Wilflex white inks we have in store and explore what each excels at. By the end of this guide, you'll be well-equipped to select the ideal Wilflex ink for your specific requirements.

THE STANDARD CURE CHAMPION

If you've been a long-time user of Perfect White, Bright Tiger White is your new white ink. This ink is tailored for standard cure (300°F) applications and serves as a low-bleed white. If you're primarily working with standard curing processes, Bright Tiger White is your go-to choice. It’s one of the best white inks on the market that mattes down shirt fibers, creating the smoothest prints you’ve ever seen. Also, whether you’re printing on a manual or automatic screen printing press, Bright Tiger prints like a dream on both (especially on an auto).
