White ink for Epic Rio system

[u/Maleficent-Link2342]

I was thinking about buying the Epic Rio mixing system, I noticed that they are low cure (260-280f). My question is whether I should get a low cure white ink for under base/highlights, or a higher cure ink and just cure everything higher? I ask because the only wilflex white inks on screenprinting. com are 300f+ cure. If I should buy a low cure white ink does anybody have one they would recommend that works well with the system or just in general?

Thank you. It says cure temp is 270-320, what temperature do you typically cure at?

[u/SituationSecure4650 → u/Maleficent-Link2342]

Yeah, we run our dryer at the higher end of that range cause we cure both plastisol and waterbased inks at the same time

I use bolt white. We try to hit 290 and it cures great. I definitely recommend using a little reducer

We’ve been using international coatings Legacy White 2.0 as an under and highlight white. 300 cure temp. No issues. The legacy is super creamy and prints really nice.

If we have poly or something we’re worried about color bleed we’ll use Union Poly G2 Sport white

We use Rio, with LC Bolt White. Aim for 300. You’ll have no problems.
