It depends. If you have a weak ink and Soy as you main stainer then yes its a Weak Stainer. Barley even stains. But once you get a mix going it can make a deffernce.
dot 3 doesnt stain. it simply extends the drying time allowing the staining agent to soak in ans set longer. Meth blue potas. permagrate pvc primer dyes (leather, shoe,ect)
True SOS, the only time I used soy in a mix was when I was toy at making ink. I'll have to try it now that my mixes are dank.
im thinking about buying some leather dye to make make ink stain a little more but whats the best addative to make it more opaque(besides more pens) oh and whats the best store to buy leather dye and whats the price usually
-80 papermate ballpoint pens -1 cup of isoprophyl 90% alchol - a cap of dot 3 brake fluid (you can also use acetone)
Thats the Basics, But you got the Point. For Ever 80 Pens, add 1 cup of 90% Alcohol or Higher into the Mix. But as Break Fluid Gose just one cap. As some one stated befor. But after you get done with your basic mix you should start looking for stainer and colors and pigmensts and stuff. To futer more make your ink dope.
eyenever- either a 3/4 alc 1/4 primer, or anything really but if you add a full cup alc and then primer it will make your ink thinner so replace some of the alc w the primer, or just use primer instead of alc generally i like 100 pens to a cup of solvent, and acetone will work better than alcohol. PVC primer can also be used in place of alcohol, it will work better too. and be careful not to use much dot 3. itll ruin a whole batch if you get to much
i made a small batch today just to try it out. I used 30 pens( mixed blue and red), the green 70%,and pvc primer. Dont remeber the exact amount( i have them wrote down) but it turned out a really nice purple..i did a buff test with it and do em dirty outdoors and mine seemed to stain harder but im not gonna say it did until i do more test.. i got some rit dye powder stuuf toady in black,blue,and red. Would this be good to add to the ink??
