shai Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 does this actually do anything?? Unless there's something about liquid chalk I don't know or remember, I doubt it. Liquid chalk is water-based, so acetone wouldn't help it or hurt it. Some other tips I forgot to bring up- -Nothing lasts. Have all the fun you want mixing inks, but at the end of the day the only thing that's truly permanent is etch. And, since that's off-limits, I'll add that there's nothing quite like heaving a brick through a window to make your day...and ruin someone else's. If you want, write something on the brick, but consider the anonymity factor. Also, most transit agncies spend more money on graffiti abatement than you'd think, so whatever you do is only going to run as long as they let it. -Being skeptical is good. If you read something here and it sounds wrong, either don't try it or keep asking till someone has an answer that makes sense. Fucking around with chemicals is dangerous, and could be bad for your health. -Write shit down. If you get something right, don't count on memory to be the most reliable way to reproduce a mix. -Olive oil=clean hands. Most of the time. There's a hand cleaner made by Phil Wood (Google it) that works well, and won't ruin your skin. I try to use natural stuff to clean up my messes whenever possible, like Citra-solv or Simple Green, or napthalene soap. I only break out the heavy shit when absolutely nothing else has worked. -Nobody can make Krink except for KR. Metallics are tricky....that's not to say you shouldn't try, but don't go crazy trying to get it right, because you won't. Believe me, I've tried.

MAR Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 -Nobody can make Krink except for KR. Metallics are tricky....that's not to say you shouldn't try, but don't go crazy trying to get it right, because you won't. Believe me, I've tried. me too and with psudeo sucess and no its not paint and thinner. I made it from scratch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shai Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 That's what I heard, too. Then again, I hear lots of things, so...I've also heard it's a lot easier than it seems and the ingredients are not what you would expect them to be. Actually, that reminds me....I wanted to ask DOERDIRTY how he went about getting his ink made, or if he does it himself. I thought about it, but seeing as how I have no head for business, I figured I'd be better off letting someone else do it. I don't want to know how it's made or anything like that. Mostly, I'm curious how you dealt with getting around VOC compliance laws, since if you want to get anything made here (California) it can't have a VOC rating higher than 60%. Then again, if you are doing it on the sly, it doesn't matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerosol Artist Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 so whats with this brake fluid.. what does it do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeezerPHM Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 brake fluid adds a little corrosiveness and make the ink dry slower, giving it more time to stain in deeper. the stuff is pointless cuz kids be trying to use it like thnner. if you gonna use brake fluid you only use one or two DROPS for a couple ounces of ink.

Smokey Chuck Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Those flicks are of etch. I took the 2nd and 3rd flick you posted, etch works on metal as well as glass... I think the chicago writers with purple inks are using Garvey, which stains hard but fades with the sun, or some other shit... somebody told me once but I forget the name...

rubbish heap two Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 add meth blue to silver paint and mop it up, you get silver with a blue stain that buffs like garvey but doesnt fade in the sun. little bit of acetone for thinner but not more then 15 percent. if you want it thinner, add in some xylene. brake fluid, no point in fooling with that shit anymore.

NeWoNeCaKcRu! Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 has any one ever used that shoe cleaner that is already in a mop...i think if u jsut added some paint thinner to it it would be fly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAR Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 This should be posted at the top of every page in this thread: *Shoe polish is a waste of time. *..so is dot 3. It weakens plastic? so then why is it in a plastic container? *So are most (with the exception of a few) of the inks you can buy on the internet. *The recipe for ghetto krink is 3/4 rusto aluminum or silver bucket paint and 1/4 paint thinner. *Mix inks with xylene, acetone, paint thinner, etc. *If it contains water its a waste of time. *You open a kiwi mop by pulling the plastic sponge top off. *Most markers unscrew the opposite way. *If you have any questions dont ask them until you have gone through every page of this superthread. I did it and it answers basicly every dumb question and good question. *Try it yourself dont ask us. *After you've tried it yourself and looked through the whole thread and you cant find an answer then ask questions.
