either will work. If you're making washes...use lining. If you're going to use hand pressure and straight black, either is fine.

Denser blacks, like Triple black, are made from smaller molecules, which is needed for added density.

The downside is that these inks can blow out easier, which is why I guess most manufacturers have ‘normal’ and ‘dense’ blacks, rather than just switch everything out to denser blacks.

I do line with Triple black but am mindful of the higher probability of blowouts, and in most cases I line with regular Dynamic.

To add, I love Dynamic TB for black and grey and black fill, which seems to be in contrast to TexasPT. It works for me.

I get ya , more chance of blow out !
So can be used for black in greywash , then normal black and then start diluting the other cups down with the standard black .

I use it for all my black wash solid and dilutions now, and my results have been good. I’m not saying that it’s the only or preferred way, but it works well for how I tattoo.
