    I Made Homemade ink Using Pens, Rubbing Alcohol, Acetone, And Printer Ink, I Used 20 Pens And about 30-40ml Of Printer ink on a 400ml Bottle, Should I Add More Pens Or Printer Ink To Make It Thicker? Sorry For My Bad English Im From Different Country

    Yo.
    Instead of opening a new tread I just ask here.
    When making ink,, what is the best to use, isopropyl alcohol or denatured alcohol?

    And can I use dot 3 to spice up oil based ink?

    And last question.. are there any good way to make universal printer ink usefull and htb for markers?

    Palyo

    I used honey and only a little molasses works too but too much will fuck up the staying potential so keep that in mind a little paper ash works well for mop ink but not marker hope that helps

    denatured is better in my experience but either works and yes dot three makes oil based ink better but less is more with dot 3 so dont go nuts

    If you re-burn those ashes you'll end up with a good additive to thicken the ink slightly as well as adding opacity. Generally I'd just add more pens if it was too thin instead of stuffing around with shit like honey.
