I am actually going to boycott this thread. I was hoping to look back at the hidden gems hidden in the old Ink Directory thread but it was locked and then deleted hence I will no longer be answering questions pertaining to ink, paint, or w/e. I also will probably never even look in this thread for I give it a week before it goes to hell. I tried my damned hardest to keep the old ink directory alive and I get repaid by it, and my hard work, getting deleted. Phuck this ink thread I hope it goes down the drain soon.

I was disappointed when I signed onto BS today and found the Ink INKS!! Thread gone. I think it should have been locked and left for a week so any useful information could have been saved from old posts.

I am not pissed off that a new ink thread was created. This is a fresh start. Granted whatever informative posts that were in the old thread have been deleted, but so have all the crap talk and toy question posts.

Toys will ALWAYS be coming in and asking simple questions, stupid questions, and talking about off topic stuff. The only way to completely avoid and stop this is to prohibit new members from registering to the entire site, eventually all the toys will learn the answers to their simple stupid questions and no longer ask them.

For the record, no matter how annoying it is, when a toy comes in and asks "how do I make India Ink stain hard?" this IS on topic and technically IS a relevant question. Yes it will get asked over and over. The only thing we can do is get information about india ink added to the recipe thread, and simultaneously answer their question or point them to the answer in the ink recipe thread.

The problem isn't with toys asking stupid questions (because they always will), its with how the rest of the community reacts to it. I.E. complaining about it, not doing anything about it, not trying to stop it.

Boycotting this new Ink Discussion Thread will only GUARANTEE its failure.

Posting good information in hopes of improving the recipe thread, creating inks and posting their recipe with an action shot, answering questions if you can, discussing current inks, and brainstorming/theorizing about possible new inks at least has THE POSSIBILITY of making this new, fresh thread a success. Or at least better than the old thread.

First of all, if its a new nib it will soak up lots of ink, so put some more in. Secondly, check the other thread; it has lots of ways to make good ink/ paint.

lol Sir was hoping the topic would phail. We all love you too sir. So, I think we should start moving away from oil based paints. I recently was repainting my pool and had some left over paint (it is rubber based and fucking rocks) so I decided to do a quick rollie on my shed just to see how it looks. Shit is kick ass, dries rather fast, and is built to stand up to mad pressure and water/weather. It's been about a 3 months since I did the rollie and it still looks brand new. Only thing to do now is to see if paint thinner thins out rubber based paint.

Do they have rubber based paint in the same sick colors as oil based?

Sintakz
02-03-2008, 06:31 PM
I honestly haven't really looked around for rubber based paints. I got mine obviously at the pool store so they had typical pool colours and jacked up the price because they called it a "specialty" paint. I'll run a google right now :)



Edit:

Seems like they have a special thinner just for rubber based paints as I thought they would.

http://www.lesliespool.com/browse/Home/Pool-Deck-Repair/Deck-Protectors/Paint-Thinner-Rubber-Based-1-Gallon/D/30100/P/1:100:17000:1700020/I/26727

here is a colour chart for some rubber based paint. It is obvious that the colours are kinda limited.
http://www.brockent.com/images/3014.jpg

Seems like the only place to buy it is at pool stores so it seems like this idea went down the drain as most of the 1 gallon things of paint are in the 50+ range..... yea..... a bit much for my budget haha. And it'd be kinda hard to rack it. here's a site to buy in case money is no object to you.

This is how I see KR making his krink. I've found that when alcohol and oil paint is put through a sponge they somewhat combine together. Weird, huh? I found out by putting GK and alcohol-based ink in a mop. *ShakeHard* Then juice the sponge nib and I squeezed the rest of the ink out and it mixed together. No one tell me I'm lieing, I saw what I saw and I'm telling the truth. Then I let it sit for awhile and it didn't separate. Can someone tell me WHY?

i know junobo eventually like peels off of whatever you put it on. but if you mix oil paint and some oil-based rusto bucket paint together, that won't peel, will it?

Sintakz
02-03-2008, 07:22 PM
no... oil + oil = oil haha. Junobo peels due to it being either acrylic based (i'm pretty sure it's acrylic based) or latex based which all comes down to one thing, water based. Oil based is the shit they paint wood with, that shit won't come off anytime soon.

Yo, I got a question. I just racked this kiwi mop today, dumped out all the shit and replace it with some ink. Now, the first batch I made I put rubbing alcohol, and blue acrylic paint. Did the same with this recipe, except I thought since I'd be making more and adding more paint, I'd need more alcohol. So added it and everything, it turned out shitty as fuck. SO, this really, really, toy dude at my school has the big pilot jumbo marker and I was wondering how that ink would work in my kiwi mop. So, how would it work?

I don't want to call you an idiot or call you a bigger toy than the "toy" at your school but...... sorry, I'll refrain from saying that. Alcohol+paint= don't work. Next time either thin the paint with water or add some pens to that alcohol. As for Joker, its the same concept as the self outlining ink. It'll seperate just give it some time. I pretty much see it as a waste of time to mix perfectly good ink with some paint but w/e, that's on you. That is, unless you are working on the same thing that me and vagrant were talking about. :)

Im some what working on a recipe something like krink but not fully, a paint that can stain. I know, I know that paint dosn't stain but I want it to. Personally I hate valve flow makers and love mops, free flows, stuff like that. and sintak, I am a toy but I experiment as much as possible, been written for 5 years now so. I'm defiantly not a ink god or some shit for sher but I am just trying to understand ink alot better. Most of the time I am just phucking around sooooo.....Can't really blame me.

Since the old thread got removed, there was so talk about Iron Oxide III (Rust), what's the deal with that?

From what I can remember it gets the rust process started and will eventually rust the metal. But for the time being it gives your ink that rusty colour. Pretty cool if I remember correctly.

And yes, pretty much anything that works in a marker will work in a mop.

Discussion on Nail Polish.
Nail Polish is alcohol based, and generally alright, but its sort of like paint and just sits on the surface. Yes alcohol will buff it. Thinning it with acetone (nail polish remover) and maybe adding DOT3 might do some good. It will definitely give you more volume if you thin it out. Plus is you can easily steal nail polish, but you'll need a few bottles to fill a marker.

Discussion on Metallic Mountain Dew Green Paint.
Depending on how much paint you want to have in the end, you will need a lot of Pearl Ex. No big deal if you rack it.

Alright, new thread, kinda sucks that the old had to be deleted, probably had some great stuff in there, oh well.

Ok, I was thinking, if I was going to make say, a turquoise ink, what could I add to blue ink? I have inks made from ballpoints and from methylene crystals as well as dyes, and they're all fairly dark blue. I'd like to get a lighter shade of blue without only thinning it, and remember this isn't a paint/thinner mixture, it's ink.

quit bitching about the old thread..
.. none of you read through the old pages.. because the old pages were identical to the newer pages. it was the same shit the same questions

vagrant said it best

" Posting good information in hopes of improving the recipe thread, creating inks and posting their recipe with an action shot, answering questions if you can, discussing current inks, and brainstorming/theorizing about possible new inks at least has THE POSSIBILITY of making this new, fresh thread a success. Or at least better than the old thread."

its just a refresh of information ..

now 750 posts deep the same mo fuckers who want better for the forum .. are just blabbering and bitching and posting just for the sake of their opinion .. you dont have to chat in here 24/7 if you got info post it .. if you dont then go talk in the general discussion thread. go ahead and make a thread in there ..YOU CAN !! ..
try to keep this
question and answer and just for recepies.. 720 posts so far and like 5 or 6 actual recipes ... the rest is the wieners who ran the old thread into the dirt..

now im gonna go drink my coffee .

have a good day to all. go write on something .. outside of your backyard .

or go to a party supply store or a crafts store and look for window chalk markers . or bingo daubers .. other decent brands of silver ink are made by.. krink and grog.. then again you can always make your own paint version .. using the GK recipe in the ink/recipe sticky ..

Wrong.
Denatured Alcohol is traditionally 90% Ethanol (pure alcohol) and 10% Methanol

You can use denatured or the more common Isopropyl Alcohol for your pen ink recipes. Isopropyl Alcohol is very very similar, and you should be able to find it in smaller quantities in drug stores, grocery stores, etc. Whereas Denatured is found in quart sized cans at hardware stores.

I know I or somone else has said them all before, but just to bump the info

GK Additives

Hydrochloric Acid (Found in Home Depot/Lowes in the outdoor section)
Japan Drier or Ether (Found at any art store or Home Depot/Lowes)
Paint Hardener or Poly (Same as above)
Linseed Oil (Art Stores)
Butimen (Kind of hard to find, I've seen it at Home Depot before, just look around)

Just a few to help people that want better GK.

ViaHipHop

Linseed Oil makes it dry faster and harden right?

Linseed Oil is a vehicle for suspending pigment.
Japan Drier would make it dry faster and harden

Coversall's bitumen based, that should give you an idea of what it might do.
And hydrochloric acid can do a lot of things both for ink and paint, look at the chemistry of what ur mixin n u might see what i mean.
It can cause rust though but for some reason Rogue said to me it wouldnt work n blah blah blah blah blah, try stuff out and see what can happen.

Jet
02-04-2008, 05:48 PM
depends on if the meth blue is powder or liquid and on how this you want the pen ink.

if the meth blue is powder add it in small amounts cause if you use too much it will collect on the bottom and be wasted. If it's liquid you can add as much as you want.

as for the dye the more you add, the thicker it'll be.

Hydro Acid will help your paint last longer, it's very corrosive and eats into surfaces.

Butimen will help the opacity and make it nice and thick. It is liquid tar basically, and would only be good in black.

You can order the same pigments from paint to use them to make ink.

But if your talking taking pigments out of paint itself, talk to me on aim.

that is the preferred method for those that like to blow things..

nothing easier that putting the cut up tubes in the appropriate volume of ink and letting it sit for a day, or two, or a week. you are literally doing nothing as the ink is removed from the pens. then strain the tubes out.

Chemical Composition: Silicone Oil
Water
Solvent
Emulsifiers
Lacquer
Pigments

You cant really tell what base it has seeing as there are no proportions given.
The first ingredient is an oil though so going by conventions i'd imagine that out of all those ingredients, the oil makes up the most of it.
Fuck knows though, it has water, solvents and oil so it could be any of the three.

Edit: There are emulsifiers and laquers so i highly doubt that it is waterbased.
It's used for dying shoes n shit or w/e it says there so it's most likely solvent or oil based (like most leather dyes).

Some pharmacies will stock it for feet fungus n shit, it says on wikipedia that it's not readily available though.
You can get 100g of crystalline gentian violet for about £15, that's online though.
And i know you can get it cheaper, but thats usually powdered and you need to buy more.

i was looking at the ink and recipe thread and posted about how to make junobo paint. basicly he said mix acrillic paint with water... im wondering how much of ech should u use and how good does this acually work...

Sintakz
02-07-2008, 06:19 PM
it works ok. I suggest adding in as much paint as half of what you really wanna get then start adding water and mixing till it is as thin as you want it. Done. EXPERIMENTATION KIDDIES!


and you obviously didn't follow directions as right below the action shot it says 2/3 paint 1/3 water

is wood stain any good? i just coped some of that shit, and mixed it with some left over grog and brake fluid, not sure how its gonna be, how is wood stain?

Sintakz
02-07-2008, 10:19 PM
no, it is not good. utter shit










































j/k that stuff is good, you added it to grog which is good, wood stain does just what its name implies, stains wood, it leaves a nice stain on other materials as well though. Enjoy it :) There is a recipe that uses woodstain in the stickied ink thread if you wanna check it out

djsupreeme
02-07-2008, 10:20 PM
ive come to the conclusion that **** is just pen ink with methylene blue added

Sintakz
02-07-2008, 10:21 PM
Errr, only half credit for that answer. **** ink is pen ink added to a base ink and meth blue and potassium permegante added to it.

djsupreeme
02-07-2008, 10:23 PM
i wish it was more opaque

Sintakz
02-07-2008, 10:25 PM
This just in, I WAS WRONG. **** actually hates pen ink and his ink has NOTHING to do with pen ink except that it has some of the same ingredients. Thanks for the info rogue. :P

Darkeist

02-07-2008, 10:53 PM
grog + ded red. mix em and fall in love.

Sintakz
02-07-2008, 10:57 PM
it only smells like pen ink because it has some of the same ingredients. Aka ingredients that are in ACTUAL pen ink, not the whole add pens to some alcohol, no I mean the ink that is inside the actual tube of the pen

Case-One
02-07-2008, 11:13 PM
methalyne blue+rusto oil based+mineral spirits+maybe sum dot 3

Sintakz
02-07-2008, 11:14 PM
= waste. Dot3 does shit for paint and methlyne blue serves no real purpose in paint it's better to save it for ink

Case-One
02-07-2008, 11:17 PM
so i should use it with pen ink or what?

Sintakz
02-07-2008, 11:19 PM
yea use it with pen ink and shit that is alcohol based. Add it to stuff like grog, ded, ect.

Case-One
02-07-2008, 11:23 PM
i'm tryin to stay off the buyin company ink ride, cause i'm just trying to make sum good recipes of my own but, if you got any good mixes hit me up, i know i could just look through the rest of the thread, but i'm lazy

02-07-2008, 11:24 PM
Make sure you only use a few drops...

And stickied ink thread..

02-07-2008, 11:26 PM
i just mixed up sum black rusto with DOT3 and mineral spirits, it's supper dope but i feel it's missing sumthing

Case-One
02-07-2008, 11:27 PM
also i haven't tryed the pen ink mixes yet but that'll b in the near future, how many should i use for a 20 ml bottle?

Rogue
02-07-2008, 11:29 PM
That Dot 3 was a waste, just like Sintakz told you a few posts up.

And I posted a bunch of additives for GK in this thread


Edit-

I know I or somone else has said them all before, but just to bump the info

GK Additives

Hydrochloric Acid (Found in Home Depot/Lowes in the outdoor section)
Japan Drier or Ether (Found at any art store or Home Depot/Lowes)
Paint Hardener or Poly (Same as above)
Linseed Oil (Art Stores)
Butimen (Kind of hard to find, I've seen it at Home Depot before, just look around)

Just a few to help people that want better GK.

Found it for you

02-07-2008, 11:37 PM
i just wondering about Junobo, is it acrylic based or what, because thats water soluable, this is a really dumb question i know

Rogue
02-07-2008, 11:40 PM
It's not dumb, your just asking a question, it's all good man.

Junobo is acrylic/latex paint.

It scratches/peels off, and I've mixed it with water before...

Complete utter waste of money. Make it yourself at home.

Case-One
02-07-2008, 11:43 PM
could i have a good recipe mix for that, i know i can just fuck around till it gets right but sum hints would be cool

This just in, I WAS WRONG. **** actually hates pen ink and his ink has NOTHING to do with pen ink except that it has some of the same ingredients. Thanks for the info rogue. :P

that why it has the bronzeish gloss to it when it's on stuff dark enough to hide the blue?

Vagrant
02-08-2008, 12:21 AM
we really need to make a list of stuff to add to the stickied ink recipe thread. that shit needs to get updated constantly. for instance: DOT3 GOES IN INK NOT PAINT, METHYLENE BLUE GOES IN INK NOT PAINT, better ink feedback reviews, etc...

ok harry seriously if someone type something that is wrong don't just tell them phail or roll your eyes, that is pointless and off topic. When Case-One typed that recipe I told him it wouldn't work and WHY. Stop being a dick and actually TELL the new comers WHY shit works or doesn't work, that way they don't make the same mistake again.
