Madder Cutch & Co - Natural Dye Screen Printing Ink

A unique range of water-based screen printing inks using natural pigments from Madder Cutch & Co. Available in 100ml and 270ml pots.

• Ready to use

• Easy to mix to make your own lovely colours

• For screen printing and block printing light-coloured natural fabrics

• Soft handle

• Colourfast at 30°C (except Tickencote pink*). Cool temperatures and a detergent without optical whiteners, (I recommend Ecover) should be used when washing the fabrics after printing and heat setting.

• Heat setting is essential for a colourfast finish. Heat set at 160°C for 2 to 3 minutes (an iron can be used)

• Store at cool temperatures and out of sunlight to protect the shelf life

• The colours are not all fully lightfast and it is advisable to keep all printed products protected from strong light, to maintain their quality.
