    Not beef, dont get excited, I don't have time for you.

    And any kind of paint as much as you try to thin it with paint thinner, it won't flow through a marker and if it does you'll just be flowing thinner basically.

    Oh Okay. Thanks immoral.

    Ha, yeah I'm complete noob at paint/ink stuff right now
    Well just got back from Michael's, Kind of dissapointed
    They only had purple deco's, all of the Zig markers were out of stock, they only had 3 colors of prismas and gray ones. I did manage to get about a dozen sharpies and 4 of the purple decos and some of the prismas. Also got 2 of the Martha Steward glue pens and actually bought a black book.

    Alright but paint is fine in mops though right? just to make sure

    If you dudes want paint in markers so bad,
    why not just use the paint IN the markers?

    H3tt, I never thought about the pigments being so small, nor even considered it, glad you pointed that out.

    I think if anyone wants a different color paint to go in their markers, rack the shit out of Decos and put it through A two way glue pen. It'll flow through and if you get a good, solid pigment like brick red, it will have solid lines. Store tip down

    Is the big black krink mop pretty much extra thinned down black paint and maybe an additive or two?

    when it drips, the drips seem to get lighter and lighter, why is that?

    Which marker is the best for thick, clean, solid lines? Pilot Jumbo or OTR 0.50?

    staples or any office store really. theyre sooooooooooooooo dope

    but whats on that wall was sprayed, not from the presto. they make thin lines, its just a white out pen

    cant go wrong with a pilot or zig/martha stewart for that

    ok. i'm a toy especially when mixing inks and paint. i mixed black, oil based rusto bucket paint and odorless mineral spirits. 2/3 paint and 1/3 mineral spirit. i slapped it in a kiwi and the shit sucked. streaky as fuck and inconsistent. i then added more paint, even worse, too thick. dumped it out. added more spirit this time about half and half. results: about two good solid, opaque lines... what is up?

    yeah, i did mix it. i think what i did was i didn't mix the bucket paint well enough initially right after opening it.

    Alright, I have a question

    Why are people so infatuated with making markers out of weird shit?
    Why not just buy/rack markers?
