Great product but dries fast
This ink is great and incredibly opaque. Since it’s pretty much the only opaque white option for linocut on fabric I’m not gonna give it too much of a hard time but I do wish it stayed wetter longer. It dries quite quickly and becomes difficult to use. I have had to get a toothbrush to clean it out of my Lino blocks because it gets caught in the tiny crevices and won’t come off without a good brushing. I might be too used to using water based inks so take that into consideration when reading my review. It works best with 100% cotton or linen with no stretch element but gets the job done on stretch fabric with only a little greying. I almost exclusively print on black with white ink so I use this product constantly and my biggest complaint is the smell. If you’re used to oil painting it smells similar to oil paint which isn’t terrible but definitely leave your windows open when printing.

Most Speedball inks do well with Fabric. HOWEVER, NOT THE OPAQUE WHITE
I am new to the printing game. Having said that, I will say that Speedball BLACK is just fine on fabric. It will stay on even after laundering.I CAN'T SAY THAT FOR OPAQUE WHITE. IT WILL NOT STAY ON COTTON WOVEN, COTTON KNIT, POLY/COTTON WOVEN......NO LUCK.The opaque white just washed off the fabric. What didn't wash off, peeled and pilled up to the point that I had to take a lint roller and rub the rest off.Yes, I followed the instructions. Yes, I heat set. Yes, I YouTubed to see what I was doing wrong. No one was talking about Opaque White.I ended up having to use plain white acrylic paint instead for my project. It isn't perfect after laundering, but at least it stays on the fabric.So, in conclusion, I have a tube of Opaque White I'll gladly give to Speedball for a full refund.As I said above, the black is fine. But stay away from Opaque White.

Ink color matters
To put it bluntly the opaque white sucks. Black worked well and held color even after washing but the white does not cover! It's not the tee fabric or the ink being old. It will not cover like you expect it to. Choose a darker color with alot of pigment.

Wonderful opacity and thickness for fabric application
I tried regular screen printing ink before buying the block print ink for fabric and it made a HUGE difference. Fantastically opaque on dark fabric.
