2020年7月26日 · (1) Open up the pen to pull out the ink tube, and then yank the pen nib out of the tube. You might need pliers for this, some are pretty stuck in there. Separated nib & ink tube (2) Use an eyedropper to drop solvent into the exposed ends of the nib and ink tube, filling them both. Filled with solvent! (3) Using the needle, poke around in the ...

2013年2月16日 · Most iron gall inks today have a rather low concentration with dye added. A pure iron gall ink with high iron gall concentration is Gutenberg's document ink. The darkness is similar to the old texts, but with neutral gray. The brown hue probably develops over the decades. These high concentrated iron gall inks are not without risk to a pen.

2015年7月1日 · My first attempt at a pen review. Comments and suggestions for improvement gratefully received. ----- Noodler’s 'Charlie' is a free eyedropper pen that comes with the 4.5 oz size of Noodler’s Heart of Darkness - and now also with FPN Voltaire Candide Vermilion. These are my impression...

2021年2月25日 · Generally speaking, there are 4 different types of ink on the market. This chart ranks them by viscosity (how thick or goopy the ink is). Viscosity is important because it's the main factor determining smoothness, color depth, feathering, and dry times. -- BALLPOINT INK - OIL BASED - Great for lending to people you don't care about Highest ...

2022年9月13日 · Super ink. We bought about a 100 pens (from pens.com) to give away and kept a few. Now they are running out of ink. The refills are very short and carry very little ink. Hate to throw out the barrel and contribute to landfills! Anyone has had success please share with with us.

Also, if the ink residue is showing up as very light, you might try flushing with room temp. water, then let the excess water "wick" out into paper toweling, fill the pen with ink and see how it goes. It may work just fine and if so, mission ...

2024年3月19日 · Tom's Studio Lumos Duo Today it's not a fountain pen, but an ink pen. I wasn't sure whether it belonged in this review section (if this is the wrong place, please move it!). I actually came across the product by chance on a trip to England earlier this year. On the way to a large art supply store...

2015年8月10日 · For instance, Laser Jet paper which has a slick ink resistant finish in the 85 gm. range holds up quite well to fountain pen use. If all else fails, run your finger along the paper in question. If it feels smooth and velvety and of a reasonable weight (70+gsm), there is a decent chance it will work well with your fountain pen (at least your ...

2021年11月19日 · A slightly more absorbant paper will work better for you. The best fountain pen papers often dry slower which can enhance the look of the ink on the paper but that isnt what you want. Try the leuchtturm notebook. Another thing that will help is using a finer nib a thick line dries slower. You already have ink that you like so try the 2 above ...
