HOVIE Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 Originally posted by b0b I wouldnt mix nero, that stuff is great as it is.

That stuff stinks though i allways mix nero with stuff...its better with a bit of corio or sumthing in it...but yeah potassium permagranate allways does the trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My suggestion is to cop some of that nasty ink you guys got in Europe, like Nero, Corio and Fiebing's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macksimum Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 good place to get staining aditives in the bay area? not trying to blow up any spots just curious and getting frustrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubbish heap Posted February 27, 2004 Author Share Posted February 27, 2004 you could try your local graff store. i don't live in the bay area, so i have no idea if they stock it or not. Graff Shops Around the World Thread myself, i'm getting mine off the internet. edit: Aev, I've been letting my violet/bluish carbon paper / rubbing alcohol sit in a glass jar for almost 3 days now and all i have is an unopaque, easy to buff blue staining ink. am i missing something here?

loknesmonsta Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 has anyone ever used iodene as a stainer just wonderin if i should make the effort to get it... i spect it could stain some things but not others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at it here http://www.sciencelab.com/page/S/CTGY/21362 Aqueous, to the best of my knowledge, means its liquid. you don't want liquid, you want the dry stain. and the carbon paper, i guess you have to use violet or it doesnt work.

chumbawumba Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 Yeah it sounded like liquid to me, too. No worries, they have the methylene blue dry stain. The only carbon paper I can get here is black. Back when my uncle died we raided his house and took all his stuff. He had about 7 pads of violet carbon paper, I would have kept some but this was before I liked graff. Fuck I regret that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rinse Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 yup, another thread for ink-tinkering i know there are ink and marker threads already but i'm not in the mood to sift through 8 pages to see if a thread may or may not have a vague answer to my question. so what is the difference between NERO and MARSH inks. does nero have more staining power? is there a difference in consistancy? curious because i have gathered all of the elements for a new series of ink doctoring except for two. one of these being the main ingredient, ink. i've used marsh before but not nero, so i'm wondering how it stacks up. which ink mixes the best and which ink has the greatest lasting power? here is a chance for all you ink-tinkerers to flex some grey-matter. oh and rubbish... your input is greatly anticipated. namaste'.

macksimum Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Originally posted by AevOne718 as we all know rit cloth dye is ubershit... but what about RIT LEATHER DYE??? EH??? Anyone ever heard of this stuff? my friend says he has some. I donno. I'll checkit out and let youse guys know. my experience (which came AFTER you told me it was shit, maybe i didnt specify it was leather dye) was that all it takes is a little spit to buff it. it smears and smears and smears and then eventual (real quick) its gone. but that was also just the powdered dye mixed iwth hot water and some other random shit i found 'round the house.

rubbish heap Posted March 1, 2004 Author Share Posted March 1, 2004 Originally posted by macksimum i was hoping for something other than the graff shop cos im poor and i dont like shop(lift)ing from down folks. ok, then here is my advice. get out your phone book if you have one, look up all the drug stores in your area, and call them and ask if they carry gentian violet, and if they do, if it's in the powder form. after you find one, you're set.
