Its public launch was announced in 2013, following the team's work in DTG inks and pretreatment since 2008. The company focuses on practical print-shop problems, from color and wash performance to maintenance and production efficiency. Its approach combines formulation development with application testing so professional garment decorators can match consumables to their equipment and process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFBX Ghost UV-Resistant DTG Pretreatment for Light Garments: Product Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFBX Ghost is a UV-resistant DTG pretreatment developed for white, light and medium-colored garments. Its purpose is to address visible pretreatment boxes and sun-related yellowing while supporting the right ink combination for the garment. Evaluate it for light-colored production work where the unprinted portion of the shirt is as important to the finished appearance as the printed artwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- BA:PRODUCT-DETAILS:END --\u003e\n\u003c!-- BA:FEATURES:START --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures and Selection\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormulated to resist sun staining and yellowing associated with pretreatment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports CMYK-only printing on white cotton and white polyester blanks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for white-plus-CMYK printing on selected light and medium garment colors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplier lists use with Brother, Epson, Ricoh and other compatible DTG workflows.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eDecide first whether the design uses a white layer, then match the garment fiber and color to a validated Ghost recipe.
