rubbish heap my thread has turned into a piece of shit.
slipstyle, go search the damn thread for your "hard to buff" ink, it's been mentioned sooooo many times. and the proportions of paint thinner to paint to brake fluid, hell i'll just give that one away. personally i use about 10 to 20 percent thinner, and the rest paint. i haven't put brake fluid in in awhile.
ods, garvey doesn't stain plastic really, it's mainly a metal stainer. this is why i suggest mixing it with another ink - i usually mix mine with marsh.
i myself haven't used black garvey, and i don't really care to try. marsh and violet garvey makes such a nice dark purple anyway. by the way, according to omen black did has staining power but not as near as violet. he discussed it earlier in the thread too.
