Description

Triangle 1700 STA-True Series Low Bleed Plastisol Inks

Polyester and 50/50 blends are the fabrics most likely to bleed — the garment’s dye migrates into your ink and discolors the print. The 1700 STA-True Series is Triangle’s answer: a full range of low-bleed plastisol colors formulated to resist dye migration on synthetics, so your prints stay clean and true. It runs on knit and woven tees, sweatshirts, jerseys, fleece and even bandanna material, with high opacity and a smooth, printable body. The series includes over 15 in-stock colors — among them the unrivaled 1701 Phoenix White — plus the low-bleed whites that anchor any dark-garment job.

Why Printers Choose STA-True Low Bleed

Bright, dense color that holds up on synthetics and darks.

Full color range

15+ in-stock colors including the legendary 1701 Phoenix White.

Runs everywhere

Low-Bleed Whites in the STA-True Line

Every dark-garment job starts with a white — here are the STA-True whites, compared. Click any to shop it.

White	Best fabric	Bleed resistance	Opacity	Best for
Triangle 1701 Phoenix White	100% cotton & 50/50	Low bleed	High	Everyday low-bleed white & underbase for cotton and blends
Triangle 1706 Excel White	100% cotton & 50/50	Low bleed	High	Smooth, creamy all-around white for cotton and blends
Triangle 1706 EX Excel White	50/50 & 100% polyester	Low bleed (poly-tuned)	High	Performance & poly garments — the poly Excel White
Triangle 1707 Superior White	50/50 & 100% polyester	Maximum low bleed	High	The toughest dye-migrating polyester & sublimated fabrics
Triangle 1709 Pearl White	Cotton & blends	Standard	Highest opacity	Bright, high-opacity one-hit whites on cotton and blends

Rule of thumb: cotton & blends → Phoenix, Excel or Pearl (max opacity); 50/50 & polyester → 1706 EX Excel or Superior (worst dye migration). Always test your exact garment.
