This is probably a pretty retarded question but I didn't know where else to ask...How do you go about getting the ink out of pens for ink recipes...If you use regular bics or whatever the ink is in a little plastic tube...Can someone please shed some light on how one goes about doing this...Thanks...

 

so once u have the tube u can cut into like three peices. then u add it to ur bottle with the rubbing alchol. keep doing this until have enough.

ps: u need alot of pens and wear gloves!

 

wowowooww go look in the ink recipe thread. put it in alcohol

 

You pull the ink tube out off the pen and cut it in half and pull off the ball point end, throw them all in a container, add your alcohol. The alcohol will let the ink bleed out of the tubes, and just shake it up too.

 

Ok thanks...That's what i figured...Sorry for the retarded question

 

its cool. u gotta start somewhere

 

What color PVC Primer are you supposed to use in a basic ink recipe?

Cause I found some clear in my garage...

 

just use rubbing alchohol, break fluid, and pens.

 

i spilled my homemade ink everywhere the other day, it look about ten minutes of scrubbing to get it off my hands

 

fail....got the idea rite but no no for just rubbing alc...denatured or isopropyl

at haxpax....pvc primer is a very good ink base and would do way better than alcohol....just do bout 100 pens to 3/4 cup of pvc primer and ull have a good opague ink to fuck around with...maybe add a smidge of dot 3 to slow the dry time...


and at klic....did u try washing ur hands with the base of ur ink??? i use watever based i was using and just dump some on ur hands and rub....save u the hour of scrubbing....

 

so noone uses printer ink with pigment powder?

 

your trippin thinking i have that kind of money haha.

 

Which ink recipe is good for black, opaque, solid lines? No drips.

 

if you want a good ink that doesnt drip, You have to buy ti, but get the molotow coversall ink

 

ne ink will drip if u let it....if u make ink itll drip...if u buy ink itll drip...all depends on the marker and how u use it...

 

i need to get a cheap lil table to make an ink lab in my room

 

So me and my boy found some random jars of ink in this stationery shop and so he grabbed some. We came back to my place and filled up an empty marker with it. After he juiced the nib up it worked fine, but then after a while it ended up looking all watery. Does he just need to shake it up some more before he uses it or what? And also is there anything that makes inks dry faster ?

 

LOL, it happens... I work at a nice asian restaurant, and I go into the bathroom and it reeks of alcohol. Anyway some bitch with a big mop decided to put the lamest tag I have ever seen in person across the whole wall. I couldn't even read it, but they spent a lot of time on little stars and arrows and shit. I guess they haven't learned that a bigger marker does not make a better tag... I was pissed cause it took me like almost 10 minutes to get rid of it...lol
