Fluorescent ink is water based, consisting of a type of pigments that have the ability to absorb ultraviolet energy and to re-emit it within the visible spectrum in the dark
Have you used DTF fluorescent ink before? If not, then you need to know some useful facts about DTF fluorescent:
- Fluorescent ink is typically less viscous than standard DTF ink
- To use fluorescent DTF ink, you need a dedicated printer as you can't use the same printer that you are using for regular DTF ink (you cannot mix the inks).
- Fluorescent inks are semi-transparent, so their colour strength is weaker than ordinary ink
To achieve vibrant colors with fluorescent ink, the 'Spot Colour Printing' technique is the most effective. In Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Acrobat, you can apply spot color to each color individually on separate layers. This approach results in highly precise colors, surpassing the CMYK method. Numerous online videos are available to guide you in using this technology.
