1. In screen printing, “khadi” ink is primarily used to print light colors on dark fabrics due to its high opacity.
2. Khadi’s primary function is to allow for printing lighter colors on dark fabrics, creating a “discharge” effect where the white paste partially removes the dye from the base fabric to reveal a lighter shade underneath.
3. The thick consistency of khadi provides good opacity, enabling the printing of fine details and sharp lines even on dark backgrounds.

4. Depending on the concentration and application technique, khadi can be used to create various effects like subtle highlights, delicate patterns, or even full-color prints with layering.
5. When properly applied and fixed, khadi prints tend to have a soft, comfortable hand feel on the fabric.
