The Speedball Flex Cocoa Bean in 8oz is a warm, earthy brown reminiscent of deep cocoa — perfect for natural, organic-style fabric prints. The Flex line offers excellent opacity, elasticity and smooth application, giving you a soft, durable finish after curing.

Use it for screen printing, block printing, gelli plate work and brush painting on fabric.

Pair Cocoa Bean with warm neutrals or off-white for naturally balanced, modern prints.

Dry Time

For the best results, all projects should be allowed to dry overnight prior to heat setting. Rushing the drying process may lead to issues such as under cured ink, poor adhesion, or ink cracking after washing.

Heat Setting

Please see the fabric types below to determine the recommended temperature and time to properly heat set your project.

100% Cotton: 300° for 1 minute
Tri blend: 300° for 1 minute
Polyester blend: 300° for 40 seconds

Always use a piece of parchment paper to cover your printed project when heat setting whether doing so with a heat press or iron. This will prevent the ink from sticking to the heating element and to ensure even heat distribution. Use of alternative paper (e.g., copy paper, etc.,) is NOT recommended.

Color Mixing

Speedball FLEX Inks are not pure process colors. This guarantees the highly opaque performance but will require artists to experiment when developing their own custom palettes.
