The replacement was screwed up too

I can't believe this product was screwed up AGAIN. I ordered a replacement because my original box only had 5 inks, no gold ink. I just got a replacement and now the white ink is missing because I had TWO black inks! How does something like this happen TWICE? In addition, the ink is flaky, inhomogeneous and does not transfer well to paper. I had to touch up my prints with a brush to correct imperfections. Save money, find something else.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • No result

Great ink but not for long.

These inks are fantastic, my only complaint is that they are very expensive and don't last long if you make a lot of prints like me. I tried the cheaper Revain inks and they were terrible. I have to say this is a far superior ink that gives a really great result. I use block printing and rubber stamps on paper and fabric and they work really well. I also use Speedball Metallics which combine beautifully with them for shimmery colour. I also mix and layer them a lot to get different effects and…

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Dear

Water soluble, dries quickly

I was having trouble printing multiple sheets. The ink dried too quickly on my plate and even with the retarder I couldn't make more than two copies without adding more ink and more retarder. the amount of ink on the plate and I followed the rules. I wanted to try a water based ink to avoid toxicity in my home studio, but I don't think I'll be ordering this ink again. Didn't want to return so I'll use it in small projects. Not recommended for more professional work. They are suitable for…

Pros
  • Rugged construction
Cons
  • No automatic printing

Good ink for beginners but limited

I have tried several times to like this product but have always been disappointed. The colors available are very limited, and some of them, like yellow, contain white, so the mixed colors aren't as pure as we'd like. They're good for kids or beginners, but I wouldn't recommend them for experienced or serious artists. They dry quickly, which is an advantage in some cases, but the downside is that the ink gets sticky pretty quickly. You can add a retarder which seems to help. Most water-based…

Pros
  • FAST, EASY TO CLEAN - Easy cleaning of tools and surfaces with soap and water
Cons
  • Expensive
