    the internet :)

    and isnt everything pigment based? paint has pigment. ink has it.

    i got the same effect adding straight up alcohol to my own paints. the marbles gobbles up. all the paint just gobbled up togather and when u shook it all u hear is thump thump thump. then added xylene and the whole mop was clean again ha

    yeah you can. best thing to do is let the water evap from it so it'll work like the powder form, but won't stick to the bottom.

    For the pen ink recipe instead of rubbing alcohol could i substitute it with methylated spirits or turpentine

    I think it would be interesting to find a high alchohol based scent for candles and see how this would work with your inks

    i have friends that have used vanilla extract, mccormick to be exact

    a little water doesnt hurt. anyways the amount you would put in would NOT be able to fuck up the consistincy. just shake it before use.

    So I was planning on doing this ink mix...

    24oz/700mls garvey purple
    8oz/200mls k-grade black
    4oz/100mls fiebings purple
    stainage powder (purple)
    dot 3 (few caps full)
    acetone (depends how thick)


    Any suggestions? I was thinking of maybe removing the K-Grade (dye based black) and adding another 4oz of Fiebings Purple.... I'm unsure, what do you guys think?

    I'm aiming for extremely hard staining ink that will resist chemical transit level buff and enough ink to last me another fucking ******** order (I hate international shipping).

    Advice greatly appreciated.

    Yeah, GV is only legalised up to 0.5% in my country, its watered the fuck down. Some bitch blamed her cancer on it in 1996 and they legalised only up to 0.5% and banned the crystals. Cant be fucked risking PVC primer eating through my bottles of ink, so thats out.

    Maybe drop K-Grade and add more Fiebings? I don't know... what will stain harder to chemical buff?

    yeah. Some watered down 0.5% solution isn't worth getting I don't think.

    Can't find crystals, spoke to this chick I know, shes a pharmacists. She's also excessivley hot.

    That new overkill shit
    Powerful Purple - A grimy dark blacky purple made to stain hard and stand out boldly
    Turquoise Green - A deep bluey green made to bleed through heavily. Looks bluish normally but in direct light is a bright green

    hmm gonna pick that purple up soon !!! let us know when its at 567 or lopez ay mate.

    im guessing adding that shit watered down GV to your purple or any other inks is pretty pointless? and we can't get crystals so?

    guess ill leave your recipe how it is, or may try bit of pp with it see how that pans out.

    I would really recommend droping the Dot 3. Put some Methalyne instead if you want your ink to bleed. I mean already with the Garvey you have certified bleeding.
