Printers Choice Chill White is a low-cure, non-phthalate plastisol ink built for high-opacity white prints on cotton and cotton/polyester blend garments. It cures at just 270°F — lower than standard plastisol — with a soft hand, matte finish, and reliable bleed resistance on blends. Ready to print straight from the container, it works as a standalone spot white or as an underbase on dark fabrics. If thinning is needed, add Curable Reducer at 1–5% by volume — that’s it.

Description

Colder Cure. Cleaner Print. Softer Feel.

Standard plastisol whites cure at 320°F. Printers Choice Chill White cures at 270°F — and that 50-degree difference matters more than most shops realize. Less heat means safer operation on cotton/poly blends, lower energy consumption, faster belt speeds, and reduced risk of garment distortion on heat-sensitive fabrics. You get a high-opacity white with a soft hand and matte finish that performs consistently on 110 through 305 mesh. No additives needed straight from the container. If you need to reduce viscosity, Curable Reducer at 1–5% by volume is all it takes.

Why Printers Choice Chill White?

270°F Is a Meaningful Difference

Most cotton/poly blend garments start showing heat distortion and dye migration risk above 300°F. Chill White’s 270°F cure keeps the dryer well below that threshold — protecting fabric integrity, reducing bleed risk on blends, and letting you run belt speeds that keep production moving without babysitting the dryer.

Wide Mesh Range — 110 Through 305

Most white plastisols are limited to coarse mesh for opacity. Chill White runs clean all the way up to 305 mesh — which means you’re not swapping inks when a job calls for fine detail work or halftone printing. One ink covers the full production spectrum from bold underbase work to fine-detail spot color prints.

Soft Hand & Matte Finish

Chill White cures to a clean matte finish with a soft, non-plasticky hand that wears comfortably. No shiny or glossy surface that draws attention to the print texture. The matte finish also photographs and shoots cleanly for product content — a detail that matters for retail, e-commerce, and apparel brands.

Bleed Resistance on Cotton/Poly Blends

Chill White holds reliably on cotton/poly blend garments — the most common substrate mix in the market. The 270°F cure temp keeps the dryer below the dye activation threshold for most blends, and the ink’s formulation is engineered to resist bleed-through on light-colored and mid-tone blend garments.

Available Sizes

  • QQuart (32 oz) — Great for shops adding a low-cure white option or running smaller jobs on blend fabrics
  • GGallon (128 oz) — Standard production size for regular spot white and underbase work on cotton and blends
  • 55-Gallon Pail — High-volume shops running heavy white programs across cotton and cotton/poly blend garments

Application & Press Settings

Mesh & Emulsion

110–305 mesh monofilament. Use any direct or indirect lacquer-resistant emulsion. For superior ink deposit control, 35–70 micron capillary film delivers consistent results across the full mesh range.

Squeegee

60–70 durometer with a sharp edge for clean ink shear. A 70-90-70 or 60-90-60 triple durometer squeegee is the preferred choice for underbase printing — it maximizes ink deposit while maintaining edge definition.

Cure Temperature

Cure at 270°F internal ink temp for 1–1.5 minutes, covering the entire ink film. Verify with a donut probe — surface guns read 60–80°F above actual ink temp and will show a false cure reading. Always do a stretch test and wash test before shipping.

Thinning

Colors are ready to print without modification. If thinning is needed, add Curable Reducer at 1–5% by volume and mix thoroughly. Do not use mineral spirits or solvents — only curable reducer maintains full cure and wash fastness.

Chill White vs. Standard White — The 270°F Advantage

Feature Printers Choice Chill White Standard White Plastisol
Cure Temperature 270°F 320°F (typical)
Cure Dwell Time 1–1.5 minutes Varies
Mesh Range 110–305 Typically 86–160
Finish Matte Satin to Glossy
Hand Feel Soft Moderate to Stiff
Bleed Resistance on Blends Yes — built-in Varies by brand
Non-Phthalate Yes Varies
Best Substrates Cotton & Cotton/Poly Blends 100% Cotton
⚠ Use a Donut Probe — Not a Surface Gun

Infrared surface temperature guns read 60–80°F above actual internal ink temp. A surface reading of 270°F does not mean the ink is cured — it may actually be 190–210°F internally. Always use a donut probe or thermocouple to verify the ink has reached 270°F all the way through the film. Then do a stretch test and wash test before shipping.

⚠ Test Before Every Production Run

Dryer performance varies by ambient temperature, belt speed, ink deposit thickness, and fabric type. Always run a test shirt at the start of every production run. Print, cure, stretch test, and wash test before committing to the full job. River City Supply and its affiliates cannot be held responsible for issues stemming from inadequate curing.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why does Chill White cure at 270°F instead of the standard 320°F?

Chill White uses a low-temperature plasticizer system that allows the PVC to fully fuse at 270°F. The lower cure temp serves two purposes: it protects fabric integrity on cotton/poly blends and heat-sensitive garments that can distort or shrink at higher temperatures, and it keeps the dryer below the dye activation range of most polyester blends — reducing the risk of dye migration bleeding into the white print.

Can I use Chill White as an underbase on dark shirts?

Yes — Chill White works as an underbase on dark cotton and cotton/poly blend garments. For dark fabrics, print through 110–160 mesh, flash to dry-to-touch (not full cure), then print your top colors wet-on-flash. For 100% polyester or heavily dye-saturated blends, consider a dedicated dye-migration blocker instead, as Chill White is not a blocker-grade ink.

What mesh count should I use for underbase vs. spot white?

For underbase printing on dark garments, use 110–160 mesh to deposit enough ink for full opacity. For spot white on light or white garments, or for fine-detail work, you can run 200–305 mesh. The wide range — all the way up to 305 — is one of Chill White’s advantages over most white plastisols, which are limited to coarser mesh for adequate coverage.

Do I need to add anything to Chill White before printing?

No — Chill White is ready to print straight from the container. If the ink feels stiff (common after cold storage or shipping in winter), bring it to room temperature (65–80°F) and stir thoroughly before printing. If you need to reduce viscosity for finer mesh work, add Curable Reducer at 1–5% by volume maximum. Do not use solvents, mineral spirits, or non-curable reducers — they affect cure and wash fastness.

How do I know if the ink is fully cured at 270°F?

Use a donut probe or thermocouple — not an infrared surface gun. Surface guns read 60–80°F above actual internal ink temp and will show a false cure reading. The ink must reach 270°F all the way through the deposit and hold that temp for 1–1.5 minutes. After curing, do a stretch test (the print should stretch without cracking) and a wash test (3–5 hot wash cycles) before shipping customer orders.

Is Chill White safe for 100% polyester garments?

Chill White is formulated for cotton and cotton/polyester blends — it is not a poly-specific blocker ink. On 100% polyester or heavily dye-saturated performance fabrics, dye migration is still a risk even at 270°F depending on the garment’s dye chemistry. For those substrates, use a dedicated dye-migration blocking underbase. Chill White works best on cotton and light-to-moderate poly-content blends (50/50 and similar).

What’s the difference between Chill White and the other Printers Choice whites?

Printers Choice offers multiple whites for different applications. Chill White is the low-cure option — 270°F, matte finish, soft hand, designed for cotton and blends. Other whites in the lineup are formulated for different cure ranges, opacity levels, or specific fabric types.
