I101. Liquitex Acrylic Ink
Liquitex Acrylic Ink. 30ml bottle.
30 colors. Super fine pigments suspended in a state-of-the-art acrylic emulsion. Like all acrylics, they dry more quickly than traditional calligraphy inks. When dry, they are waterproof for calligraphy applications. Lightfast rating given for each color. Free flowing, no need to dilute for calligraphy, except the Iridescents (metallics) which you can thin with alcohol. Because they are pigmented ink, you will find some colors are superior in a pen than others.
As with all acrylic inks, use pen cleaner or ammonia in water to clean your pens.
