    pvc primer will.


    its actually obvious since its unbelieavably thin.

    u sure its pvc primer? not pvc cement? if you got the primer with purple dye added to it. it makes a good base for basic pen ink.

    (boldly stands up in back of crowd)
    i can

    i think i actually posted the recipe i used earlier on here, ive used this recipe plenty of times, opaque, flows pretty well, a tad streaky. whatever its acrylic quit bitchin

    3/8 70% isopropyl alc.
    1/8 acetone
    4/8 acrylic
    and about 8 drops of acrylic flow release, its at micheals, just look around or ask, it should be in one of the isles with acrylic(obviously)

    yup uhh, i havent used acrylic in a long time tho so i really dont remember anything about acyrlic paint. like how it fades, bla blah shit like that. no matter tho, it looks amazing with those bright colors. thats pretty much all its good for, i mean you could do this recipe or just go rack some window paints or something, same shit, easier to do

    its like the substitute for water for acrylics idk really how to desribe it, like its after yuove thinned it down, you just put like 8 drops of that shit in it and its supposed to make it flow thru markers, uh yah

    so anyway has anybody else done this, like get around 7 or 8 decos and empty the paint out of him into a mop or get liek 16 and put it in a marker. just get those bright colors....deeeeeliciuos. its a reall waste of decos tho whatever, i treatmy self to it every now an again, an i love it

    y'all oughta just stop dickin around with acrylic for your markers to bomb with, shit is mad easy to buff and will remain that way no matter what you add. if your tryin to fox with paint in your markers then start with an oil as your base

    dont really kno if this fits in here but it can plus ill get more answers here. i made a bunch of different color kiwi mops long ago an the nibs are hard as hell now. can i dip it in paint thinner to get the nib soft again or will that ruin it?

    p.s does oil based primer have a different effect from regular oil based paints?

    what kind of ink is easier to buff (with the pen/rubbing alcohol recipe):
    -more ink, less alcohol
    or
    -less ink, more alcohol

    also, were can i get some potassium pentaganate online and how much would it cost

    From personal experience more ink. Although the flow wouldnt be magical it tends to fade in a wayyyyy longer amount of period and comes out with a nicer finish. Especially if you add wood furniture shine.
