Impressive Water-Based Printing Ink

Based on my experience this ink is a must-have for any arts and crafts enthusiast looking to try water-based block printing. The drying time is fast and the colors have a vibrant and eye-catching quality. It is easy to clean up and does not leave a sticky RESIDUE behind... The only downside is that it can be a bit thin and may require a few coats for full opacity. Overall, a great product for anyone looking to experiment with water-based printing inks..

Pros
  • Easy to clean up with water
Cons
  • Requires expertise to achieve desired results

poor viscosity

The color depth is good, but applied to the lino block it looks like paint, not ink. Red, Blue, and Yellow are not true values, so the colors will become hazy when mixed.

Pros
  • CREATE GREAT PRINTS - Ideal for printing on paper or card with linoleum, wood or soft blocks, flexboard or foam
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
