Specialty Products
When vibrant colors and bright whites are not enough, International Coatings comes through with dimensional, glitter, reflective, metallic, puff and other special-effect inks to meet the need.
High Density Inks (HD)
These inks produce dramatic 3-dimensional, heavy-deposit prints. Because of reduced tack and increased flow characteristics, these high-viscosity plastisol inks will print through thick stencils. Their unique flash time will speed up production and dwell time in the dryer. Extremely sharp edges can be produced for maximum effect. Available as 142LF HD Base, 143LF HD White and 144LF HD Black.
Holographic Glitter Plastisol
140LF (lead-free, contains less than 0.025% lead) Holographic Glitter inks are formulated to produce a dramatic and unique holographic effect with high gloss and excellent durability. The inks contain special holographic glitter flakes in an ultra-clear base. 140LF can be printed directly to fabric or printed as a cold-peel transfer.
111LF Silver Reflective Plastisol
For icreasing the nighttime visibility of a printed design, these highly reflective plastisols are easy to print, one-part, retro-reflective inks that contain light-reflecting micro-spheres. When a garment printed with these products is exposed to a focused beam of light, such as from a flashlight or an automobile headlight, they reflect or return light back to the light source.
155LF LB Shimmer Plastisol
155LF LB (low-bleed) Shimmer is a translucent iridescent glitter flake in a very clear base. It is a press-ready plastisol used for creating special sparkling effects on garments.
156LF, 157LF, 158LF Metallic Shimmers
156LF Metallic Silver, 157LF Metallic Gold, and 158LF Metallic Copper LB Shimmer Plastisols are all press-ready. They provide a bright, non-tarnishing metallic sparkle to printed garments. The inks consist of fine, shimmering glitter flakes in a low-bleed, low-fusion, easy-to-print base. Easy printing is a real plus for hand and automatic printers when it comes to wear and tear on people and equipment.
220LF Puff Additive
This additive produces a unique raised or puff effect. An easy-to-use plastisol product, it can be hand-stirred into International Coatings' Multipurpose, 700, 800, 1100, 7000, and 7600 Series inks. The recommended maximum ratio of additive to ink is 10% to 15% by weight.
222LF Dulling/Suede Additive

To eliminate gloss, simply add 2% additive to ink by weight. To create a suede look, add 10% to 15% additive to ink by weight.
741LF Ultra Low Bleed White
This is International Coatings' lowest-bleed white formulated for tough-to-print polyester or polyester-blend fabrics. (As with all low-bleed inks, preprint and test all fabrics for dye migration, ink adhesion, wash fastness and other desired properties before beginning any production.)
