Questions & Answers

What is Light Brown DI-302 best used for?
Light Brown is best for sportswear, earth-tone apparel, outdoor brands, school uniforms, and general screen printing that needs a warm, natural brown.

Is Light Brown a low-cure ink?
Yes. Lawson lists Light Brown DI-302 as a low-cure plastisol that cures at 270–280°F, which helps reduce heat stress and dye migration on blends.

What finish does Light Brown have?
It has a semi-gloss finish with semi-opaque opacity, so it gives a clean brown look without being too thin or too heavy.

Can I use Light Brown on cotton and 50/50 garments?
Yes. It’s designed for cotton, 50/50s, and blends, and is a good everyday brown for general garment printing.

Is Light Brown ready to use?
Yes. It’s Ready for Use (RFU), so it’s creamy and ready to print straight from the bucket in normal shop conditions.

Can Light Brown be used on both manual and automatic presses?
Yes. It’s made for manual and automatic screen printing machines, which makes it useful in shops of all sizes.

Is Light Brown a good option for nationwide shops?
Yes. It works well for shops serving customers nationwide, including printers in St. Louis and Marietta, GA.

What Pantone does Light Brown match?
Light Brown DI-302 matches Pantone 1685U, so it’s a good fit when your customer spec sheet calls out that Pantone.

Do I need an underbase on dark garments?
On dark garments, a white underbase usually gives you the cleanest, most accurate brown. On light garments, Light Brown can often be printed directly.

How do I flash and cure Light Brown?
Flash at approximately 220°F for 3–5 seconds, then cure at 270–280°F at the ink film, using a donut probe or temperature strips to confirm.

What’s the best way to clean up Light Brown?
Use a press wash for on-press color changes, and an ink degradent when removing the ink before reclaiming. You can also save the stencil if needed.

How should I store Light Brown?
Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and extreme heat, ideally below 95°F. Keep it under one year from the manufacturing date.

Why choose Light Brown over a dark brown?
Choose Light Brown when you want a warm, natural, earthy tone that reads as a mid-brown rather than a deep chocolate or umber.

Light Brown DI-302 Dynamic Plastisol Ink is a ready-for-use low-cure plastisol designed for smooth, clean printing on cotton, 50/50s, and blends. It’s part of Lawson’s Dynamic Ink series, which is known for bold, vibrant colors, a soft hand, and easy printing on both manual and automatic presses.

This Light Brown DI-302 RFU has good opacity for everyday garment printing, especially when you want a natural, warm brown tone that looks right on press and on the finished shirt. Lawson lists it as a low-cure ink curing at 270–280°F, so it helps reduce heat stress and dye migration while still keeping production fast.

Light Brown is a solid choice for sportswear, earth-tone apparel, outdoor brands, school uniforms, and retail merch that needs a clean brown without going too dark or too deep. If you need a more earthy or darker brown, you can pair it with a small amount of black or use a dedicated brown from the Dynamic color line.

As a Dynamic ink, Light Brown is creamy out of the bucket, prints with minimal screen build-up, and works with all common direct emulsions and capillary films. It’s non-phthalate and lead-free, and is designed for shops serving customers nationwide, including printers in St. Louis and Marietta, GA.
