Uses and Techniques
The ink is suitable for application with a brush, airbrush, ruling pen, calligraphy dip pen, technical pen, or refillable FW mixmedia marker. Diluted with water, it creates transparent washes with a watercolor effect that do not bleed into subsequent layers once dry. In addition to paper, it can be applied to glass, leather, ceramic, wood, and masonry surfaces. It is not suitable for conventional fountain pens because the acrylic binder would clog them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can this ink be used in fountain pens? No. Because it contains an acrylic binder, it is not suitable for conventional fountain pens, as it would clog them.
Can you layer the paint without smudging the layer underneath? Yes. Once dry, the ink is waterproof, so additional layers of paint will not reactivate the previous coat.
What surfaces does the ink adhere to besides paper? It adheres well to glass, leather, ceramic, wood, and masonry surfaces.
