How can I stop dye migration or bleeding?Updated 2 years ago

There are a couple ways to stop bleeding.

Use the appropriate ink with dye blocking or low bleed properties. Examples of appropriate inks are low bleed whites, low cure low bleed whites, polyester whites, and a dye blocker base.

Cure the ink deposit low enough that it does not excite the fabric and cause dye migration. A low cure, low bleed ink would help tremendously.

If possible, source better fabric or garments.
