Walalala Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Search this thread, there are some ink recipes. Hint: It starts with about a million bic pens. mmm thanks! To make your own. Either Get a shitload of pens and some rubbing alcohol or pvc primer. or Get a little can of rusto oil based paint or tremclad if your from canada then thin it down with paint thinner, pvc primer, or wood hardener. Add some shellac for shine. Some gentian violet for stain. And carbon powder with some shellac for more shine and to make it fade resistant. thanks for that too! :) :thumbsup: <-- hmmm that didn'r work. =| anyway, is charcoal dust and charcoal powder essentially the same thing?

Walalala Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 while reading the thread i came across this. ...xylene itself as a very fast drying time. acetone is a no go for some pen types. it partially dissolves the plastic casing and you end up with black ink that seems grainy and wont stick to things. once again, SOME brands of pens. the same goes for methyl ethyl ketone. these two chemicals are made for dissolving polymers and resins. acetone is used mostly for "cleaning" certain chemicals, but i find it to do the most good in binding two chemicals that normally wouldnt bond in a solution. also, xylene is about the slowest drying solvent you can use in the paint world. says so right on the back of the tin. be seeing you. That's so true. I've had it happen to me (the grainy, black ink). I suppose it's the downside of using acetone as a base. Also, the trouble with xylene that it really warps certain plastics. It works dope in metal though, i.e., decos. yeahnation what did you refer to when you said 'that's so true'? im just asking this to clear up the issue on xylene drying time. (i couldn't really find anything on google.) reference: page 372 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

handsofdoom Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 What should I add to make it decent? gotta know it's consistency, it's base, it's pigment, and all that! so either inform us, or get buck on your own! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pew_Pew_Pew Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 okay no i wont. Haha making your own ink isn't that easy is it? charcoal? Never heard of that method, only the purple carbon sheets. Now do as your Mom said and stop making charcoal powder/dust, you'll blow yourself up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeahnation Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Little recipe of mine 100mL of Red Grog 50mL of Blue Grog 25mL of Black Oink 25mL of Garvey Violet 70mL of Shellac Clear 40mL of Carbon Powder 50mL of Wood Hardener Shit doesn't fade and stains hard. 4 layers of Osh White spraypaint If you really want to prove how much it bleeds through, why don't you used four coats of actual paint instead of just spraypaint? Because, I'll be honest, this little recipe of "yours" seriously is mostly just a mix of inks that people who have put in a lot of work made for people like you. What I don't understand is why you feel the need to make an ink like Oink "better" by adding all this shit to it. Don't you think the guy who makes the ink makes it the way he does for a good reason? It's supposed to be the way it is... You don't need to add wood hardener or anything else to make it stain harder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yeahnation Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 jesus... calm down he said it was his mix not ink oink isnt that great tho it wiped right off with xylene This is what I'm telling you guys... There is no such thing as an unbuffable ink. So instead of wasting all your time and effort (and sometimes money) by putting all these different things together, you should be saving yourself from all of that, and just being smarter about it all. Simpler is almost always better in the world of inks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

each Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Did a search of this thread first. Anyone tried or used Shiny or IDeal stamp inks? Some are oil based... I can get offset inks which are oil based, so i assume like ballpoint pens I can just thin with alcohol and apply? Just a note: Kiwi Leather Dye does not mix with Marsh, it just forms pockets that float on top of the Marsh and if you then try to mix Garvey in it will make the Kiwi solidify. It's exactly akin to a cement mixer, its like it curdles it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pew_Pew_Pew Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Offset inks....hmm....aren't they thinned with water on the press? I'd try alcohol, water sucks in a marker. Just get a big glob of the ink and experiment. Also, get some dyes to make it stain, gentian violet...malachite green...and that blue one forget the name.
