    I realize this is an ink thread, but since I want to use it for a mop I figure it would be ok. I was wondering if anybody had a decent recipe for paint to use in markers? Preferably acrylic. Maybe something with the consistency of say a deco or anything else that doesn't look retarded.

    Does anyone have an answer to my earliest question-has anyone here made a respectable staining ink modified from India Ink? The one I have is 'HUNTSPEEDBALL SUPER BLACK INDIA INK FREE FLOWING NON CLOGGING WATERPROOF Contains 100% Carbon Black Pigment-No Dyes.Enexelled Lightfastness(Permanence)'
    Its all good but on moderately glossy surfaces its streaky and shows greyish,and hardly stains so when it dries it scratches off with your fingernail.
    NO FUCK my father just told me he threw away a whole fucking bucket of white Tremclad paint that I had in my room. I had 5 Kiwi Mop refills in there.

    so I asked them finally, and they gave me about 6 boxes filled with arcylic and oil offset inks, and tough tex and told me if I haul it away i can have the offset press too. So here's to finally printing my own Vinyl stickers using that tough tex ink, plus seeing whats possible with these offset inks. Bonus free usage of the UV laminator too!

    dude, if you wanna make custom colored shit for mops, etc. junobo is your best friend. go get bucket paint (flat white), and go to mikes and rack any color(s) oil paint, and drop that shit in, add thinner, and you can make any color you want.

    So I mixed up some of this ink. To make pantone 261, and it's exactly the color and consistency of ball point pen ink. I'll take a photo, so you can basically make huge batches of ink without all of the waiting to extract the ink. Amazing!

    Thing is, I don't rack *gasp* and oil based paint is expensive

    I guess I will just try messing around with some ink recipes, just annoying carrying/making/using shit that stains so hard.

    acrylic is not water soluble when dry... its actually harder to buff than oil based when applied right.
