The Ink Discussion Thread

ive done it and its alot better then thinning it with straight water keeps the color

i always thin acrylics with bingo dabber stock ink too, mad colors son

[sir.one]

yeah, I figured it..extra drips plus the covering quality of the paint. looked like a good idea.

Oil based paint

water based paint

some one should try alcohol based paint..

[cormac]

wouldnt alcohol based paint just be like a pigment ink?

o and for ghetto whictches brew
purple acrylic + blackravens oil
try it goes mad thick and stains nice

[Olick]

sounds like waterbase is the new "fad"

[sir.one]

water based has been used as long as alcohol based..im confused what makes it a fad?

[Olick]

fluff me =] lol jp


just all the sudden people are enjoying waterbase more then usual.

[-Leski]

No ones hating on the waterbased stuff for not being permanent anymore.
Wonder what happened... Maybe they all realized that nothing is really buff proof and that mad colours are mad colours while they are up?

[sir.one]

well..I think its because you can find it anywhere and in huge quantities dirt cheap.
plus I love the drips.

[Olick]

thats cuz all the toys here are worried about thier 12 tags staying up.

waterbase -india ink, acrylic - cheap. .colors. easy to get. not hard to make. weatherproof "kinda" and large quantitys

thats all thier is to it

i still prefer leaving a mark or givin the buff man a challenge =]

dammit sir. beat me to it

[-Leski]

I'll write something with a can if i want to ruin the buff mans day.
I dont really care how much it gets buffed, I love to write, Who cares if i gotta hit the same spot every other day to keep it running.

Its diffrent if its some mad spot, say... Mall Santa's throne during christmas?
I think I have a new goal in life...

windows or some shit?

[Buhda420]

pigment does not stain, as james said it is like a paint. In pigment ink the pigments are suspended giving the mix a vibrant colour and there for does not sink into the surface unlike the dye type inks which the pigments are disolved. Pigment ink will not fade as fast as dye type ink. the pigment ink is likely to be a water or spirit base. as an example posterman use pigment ink. Hope that helped

i am double aware that krink of any kink is shit and wont stain but i wandering wether anyone new the base like actually knew what it was

[SAID]

[harry]

^^^agreed. Ink talk! here let me start it off. Do u guys think grog is pigment based or dye based??

[MrDobalina]

dye ^ it stains and doesnt seem to 'sit on the surface' like a pigment ink would

edit: now that i think about it.. it seems as if there is 2 parts to grog. the top layer which is easily buffable but nice and opaque, and a bottom layer which stains the surface. does anyone who has used grog know what im talking about?

anyone?

[MrDobalina]

im pretty sure it goes on clear then as it oxidizes it turns to black/brown. kinda like if u eat and apple and wait a while it will turn brown. same concept.

[HEY.LOOK.AT.ME]

yeah thats right its only invisible whenu put it on then later it shows up
