Octopus Fluids Write & Draw Ink 50ml

Write & Draw Inks... the first of their kind  The special feature of the 38 colours of water-based Write & Draw writing and drawing inks is that they are pigmented and can be written with fountain pens. Yes, you heard that right... with a fountain pen  But also with a brush or felt-tip pen. They are also  waterproof and smudge-proof when dry. The inks even meet the requirements of an indelible inkand are particularly lightfast thanks to their finest pigments. A really important aspect for artists, since dye-based fountain pen inks or colors fade quickly. In addition, they are our first inks whose ingredients are 100  vegan   Requirements of our development partners: Many of our inks and colors are created in cooperation with external development partners. The   vegan   requirement was an important criterion for one of these development partners, who showed interest in this range for use in their writing instruments. He then provided us with transparent fountain pens with a removable ink feed and, parallel to our tests, intensively tested the writing and drawing inks for fountain pen functionality. The many suggestions made by the writing instrument manufacturer were taken into account and fulfilled during development.  Our Write & Draw Inks are the first pigmented inks that can also be used with fountain pens. Development process: Many tests were made in Diplomat fountain pens. In addition, writing experiments were carried out with glass and calligraphy nibs. A high application of paint on suitable paper is unproblematic and dries without fraying. The numerous processing options with a brush will particularly please fans of watercolors. And anyone who works with calligraphy will love the wide range of colors. The inks are also mostly highlighter resistant, this depends entirely on the highlighter and application. The writing can smear a bit if you paint over it several times. The color can be intensified by repeated application after drying. Diluting with water is also possible, but is only recommended to a small extent and only for coloring (use with a brush). Diluting with water will affect the writing properties and water resistance. The black is particularly intense and was specially developed for sketching. Here the users can look forward to sharp and intensive contours or outlines of their drawings. The color white has some special features, especially in the application. So far, there are hardly any white writing inks that are suitable for use in fountain pens. Beautiful effects and accents can be achieved with the white that is now available. Our white has a very nice shading on black copy paper. The white can be used to write or draw on existing Write & Draw ink. When using the white ink,  the fountain pen should be cleaned immediately after use . Otherwise the pigments will settle in the fountain pen and a strong color application can no longer be guaranteed.  When filling the fountain pen, a few things should also be considered: -Shake the ink bottle well before use and use an (adjustable rotatable) ink converter -Use of 2 to 3 hours without loss of intensity  -The fountain pen must be cleaned after use  Cleaning and care: The water resistance of the Write & Draw Inks is created with the help of cross-linking binders, so we recommend cleaning the writing instrument immediately afterwards. For drawing, we recommend a smooth, wipeable surface under the painting surface, which can be cleaned with isopropanol ethanol or our special cleaner after the work is done. The Write & Draw  special cleaner is also vegan , so it rounds off the range perfectly
