  1. Close enough without starting to discuss carbon-rings. Be seeing you.
  2. It's make a sweet display. I've never seen Garvey bottles that old... Be seeing you.
  3. Well-put and much more polite than I would have been. Over the years I've watched this thread devolve from an exchange of ideas to people just mixing a bunch of shit together at random without the slightest idea what they're fucking doing. If you're adding brake fluid or fish oil or owt else to it, why are you doing it? If you don't know, then leave it out. If you're doing it for flow control, then why not use linseed oil? Yes, you can use acetone to bind up differing polarities, but experiment with small amounts first. It won't work a christmas miracle, slapnuts. Making pen ink and still feel like you have to mix it with paint just to prove your goddamn point? Try using xylol or lacquer thinner to make the pen ink and use that to thin paint. You do know that you're supposed to thin rust-preventing paint with xylol, right? Sure you do. Be seeing you.
  4. WD-40 is kerosene with added scent. Nothing else. It isn't oil or any kind of lubricant. Kerosene. Read and remember. Be seeing you.
  5. Really? This is very simple. Just use the 1 Shot reducer appropriate for your climate. Trying to thin 1 Shot with anything else will result in your crying. Be seeing you.
  6. Locally you could check industrial supply places like Grainger or MSC. Grainger sells Marsh Rolmark (good) for about $20 a quart. If you want to mail order TGrade, Art Primo is as good as any place to get it. Be seeing you.
  7. The second coming? Hey, slapnuts: Hit the "search" button. Look for posts from 6of1 (me) or Rubbish or just read back a bit... There's plenty of information here without re-hashing all of it. OK, now that I've busted your balls... I bought a few of those Molotow markers and the paint won't flow for shit! Did you modify the valve or anything? Be seeing you.
  8. It looks sick. And it is pricey, too. I plan on getting some for my big test. I've still got my secret plans to make the ultimate graff ink on the back burner, too. Be seeing you.
  9. Hey, good to another old name! Well, it's only been about two years, huh? I got a job that eats up a lot of my time, but I'm still around. I should be able to check up here about two times a week. I'm liking Grog more and more. I can't wait to use Rasco and Mr Black, but I'm waiting on a marker to get empty. :) I don't know what the "nitro-based" bit about Mr Black is -- it just smells like it has acetone in it to me. However, I don't own a gas chromatograph, so who the hell knows what's in it? It sure did stain the crap out of my hands... :D Be seeing you.
  10. OK, slapnuts, since you're too lazy to push the "search" button, I'lll bite. Use the purple kind. Tattoo ink? It's just pigment. Not dye. Get it? Be seeing you.
  11. Not really. Most of the household chemicals are too "safe". You need things like denatured alcohol, toluene (nasty! :D ) and paint thinner... However, if you had some 90% isopropyl and basic violet/basic blue around you could make a decent ink. Little Prestone and DOT3 to thicken it up. Yep, possible. What do you have access to? Be seeing you.
  12. Almost the same here. Streaks for dumpsters, a Pilot and now I'm making roll-on mops again. It'd been a whole lot of years since I used one and now I'm hooked again. Been painting more... I still mix my own ink, but some of the new ones are so good the most I might be doing is adding Black Top! Gotta surf on over to Channel Zero... Be seeing you.
  13. I've got Rasco, Mr Black and I'm waiting on some more Grog and Corio so that I can run a big test on all of them. I dumped some Mr Black into a Pilot, but I haven't had much time to run around with it yet. Test will be pseudo-scientific and feature pictures, so hold your breath! Grog is thin -- too thin for valve markers. I put some in a Leeho and it was way too drippy (believe it or not). The tags just ran al together and looked like inkblots. It's a little transparent, too. I'm going to give it another go as soon as it arrives, though. I mixed Black Top with the bottle I have now... that makes it hella great. Man, I have been around a looooong time :eek: and I've never seen Candy. I thought it was mainly a west coast kind of thing? Where can I get some? :confused: Has anyone tried Omega? The colours look dope... Be seeing you.
  14. Let's see if we can get this rolling again. Good to see you're still here, by the way. Be seeing you.
  15. No, and why on earth would you want to? Be seeing you.
