When to choose it
Choose this 2.5-fluid-ounce tube when a project uses mostly black, such as repeating one motif across several cotton tote bags. It gives you twice as much black as one 1.25-ounce tube in the six-color set. Test a scrap of the actual fabric before committing the finished item.
Speedball describes this as a water-miscible oil-based ink for paper and several fabrics, including cotton and polyester. The maker excludes nylon and advises allowing the print to dry and waiting a week before washing. Work that time into a gift or production schedule.
