Questions & Answers

What is Mixing Black DI-122 LB best used for?
Mixing Black is best for color matching, text and logos, team apparel, and multi-color designs that need a clean black with better bleed resistance.

Is Mixing Black a low-bleed, low-cure ink?
Yes. It’s a low-bleed Dynamic Ink that cures at 270–280°F, which helps reduce dye migration on blends and polyester garments.

What finish does Mixing Black have?
It has a smooth, creamy body designed for mixing by weight, so you get consistent, repeatable results when matching Pantones.

Can I use Mixing Black on cotton and 50/50 garments?
Yes. It’s designed for cotton, 50/50s, and tri-blends, and is a good black for garment printing where bleed resistance matters.

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

Do I need an underbase on dark garments?
On dark garments, Mixing Black can usually be printed directly because of its opacity. On light garments, it’s also printed directly for a clean, solid look.

How do I mix Matching Black by weight?
Use an ink scale to mix by weight, following your color-matching system for the correct ratios. Mix small batches first, document the measurements, and adjust as needed.

How do I flash and cure Mixing Black?
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 Mixing Black?
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 Mixing Black?
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 Mixing Black over a standard black?
Choose Mixing Black when you want a standard black with better bleed resistance on polyester, 50/50s, and tri-blends, plus a creamy body that’s ideal for precise color mixing.

  • DESCRIPTION

As a screen printing shop, you want a reliable black ink that mixes cleanly and prints consistently. Lawson’s Color Match Mixing Black DI-122 LB is built for that, with a smooth, creamy body that works with all standard direct emulsions and capillary films. It’s a low-bleed plastisol designed for accurate color mixing by weight on an ink scale, so you can get repeatable Pantone matches without guessing.

This Mixing Black DI-122 LB is a low-bleed, low-cure ink, so it’s a strong choice for jobs where you need to control dye migration on polyester, 50/50s, tri-blends, and high-poly garments. It cures at 270–280°F, which helps reduce heat stress while still keeping production fast and consistent.

Mixing Black is a solid option for team uniforms, text and logos, streetwear, and retail merch where you need a clean black tone that prints well on difficult garments. It’s also a practical option when you want to use black as a base for shading, paneling, or multi-color designs.

As a low-bleed Dynamic ink, Mixing Black 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.
