Champion Inks® Water-Based Fluorescent Ink – Magenta
Champion Inks® Water-Based Fluorescent Ink – Magenta is a high-impact, eco-forward fluorescent ink designed for bold neon output on 100% cotton and cotton/poly blends. This vivid magenta tone lays down aggressive saturation and clean edge definition while staying breathable and soft on the garment. The finish is smooth and matte, with excellent stretch, flexibility, and wash durability—without the heavy plastic feel of traditional plastisol.
Built for fashion labels, nightlife apparel, promo drops, and festival merch, this ink is UV-reactive. Under blacklight it explodes with high-energy fluorescent magenta glow, and in normal lighting it still looks loud, sharp, and premium. Phthalate-free and water-based, it supports modern sustainable print workflows while delivering professional retail quality.
