Inktex ink is a water based screen printing ink, which is also highly recommended for hand printing. Inktex textile ink can be used for air brushing of fabric after thinning down with Inktex thinning solution. This solution is an additive that reduces the viscosity of the ink without altering the binding properties or the intensity of the ink. If necessary Inktex can be thickened by the addition of standard Thickeners. Inktex can be blended in order to obtain colours, which are not in the standard range. The colour intensity or depth of shade can be reduced by blending Inktex inks reducer in any proportion according to the depth colour required. Inktex textile ink can be blended to obtain non-standard colours without loss of consistency. Inktex textile inks Contain Silicon softener, which provides handling softness in the Print area
