Aquarius Water-Based White Mixing Pigment Concentrate - 5kg
Highly concentrated white pigment additive designed for use with compatible Aquarius water-based ink systems, providing controlled color adjustment, increased opacity, and greater flexibility when creating custom ink colors.
Characteristics
Aquarius Water Base White Mixing Pigment Concentrate is a concentrated white pigment component designed for professional water-based screen printing ink mixing and color formulation. It allows printers to introduce white pigment into compatible Aquarius ink systems to modify color strength, opacity, and overall appearance while maintaining the advantages of water-based printing.
White Mixing Pigment Concentrate is especially useful when creating lighter colors, pastel shades, and custom formulations. By adding controlled amounts to a compatible ink base or color, printers can reduce color intensity and create softer shades while increasing the amount of white pigment in the finished mixture.
Because it is a pigment concentrate rather than a finished printing ink, it should be incorporated into an appropriate Aquarius water-based ink system according to the recommended formulation or mixing guidelines. Careful weighing and thorough mixing help provide consistent, repeatable color from batch to batch.

Aquarius Water Base White Mixing Pigment Concentrate is designed to be incorporated into a compatible Aquarius water-based ink or mixing base. Any additional modifiers or additives should be selected according to the recommendations for the specific Aquarius system being used.
Do not exceed the recommended pigment or additive loading for the selected Aquarius base. Excessive pigment concentration may affect printability, curing, adhesion, wash durability, color performance, and other characteristics of the finished ink.
- Thoroughly mix the pigment concentrate before use.
- Accurately weigh each component when producing custom color formulations.
- Add the concentrate gradually to the compatible Aquarius ink or mixing base until the desired color and appearance are achieved.
- Use White Mixing Pigment Concentrate to create lighter shades, pastel colors, and other custom formulations.
- Thoroughly mix the finished formulation before printing to ensure even pigment distribution.
- Record pigment ratios and formulation weights for repeat production.
- Follow the maximum pigment-loading recommendations for the specific Aquarius base or ink system being used.
- Follow the mesh, printing, curing, and cleanup recommendations for the selected Aquarius ink system.
- Always perform a test print before beginning a full production run.
- Perform a complete cure test when changing pigment concentration, substrate, mesh, or curing conditions.
- Verify color, adhesion, cure, wash durability, and garment compatibility before production.
Aquarius Water Base White Mixing Pigment Concentrate is a mixing pigment concentrate and should not be treated as a standalone finished printing ink unless specifically stated by the manufacturer.
The concentrate should be incorporated into an appropriate compatible Aquarius water-based ink or mixing base before printing. The selected base determines the finished ink's printing characteristics, recommended substrates, mesh requirements, curing parameters, hand, adhesion, durability, and overall performance.
Maximum pigment addition can vary depending on the Aquarius product being used. Always follow the current technical recommendations and pigment-loading limits for the selected base or ink system.
Increasing pigment concentration can alter the characteristics of the finished ink. Excessive pigment loading may negatively affect printability, curing, adhesion, wash durability, and overall finished-print performance.
Always test the complete formulation on the intended garment before beginning production, particularly when changing pigment concentration, substrate, mesh, additives, or curing conditions.
