Description
Good to know:
Pigment Black dries a matte charcoal black. It’s worth waiting a couple of hours before applying washes over the top of the ink to be sure that it is completely dry.
Be sure to cap your pen when not in use. Please do not store your fountain pen for long periods of time with this ink, as it may clog the feed. We recommend rinsing your tips out weekly.
Even when capped, ink can evaporate from the tip leaving it a little dry. If this happens just dip in a little water and scribble until you see the ink flowing again.
Because the ink has such a concentrated colour, you can dilute it with a smidge of water (ideally distilled) to create watercolour-like washes and depth of colour.
*Waterproof? Well, almost. The Tom’s Studio Pigment Fountain pen ink is highly water-resistant, meaning it’ll stay true under a colour wash – provided you’ve given it time to fully dry. But if you go in heavy with a very wet overwash, you might notice some smudging. Unlike true waterproof inks (which often contain plastic binders), they’ve formulated this one to work beautifully with the Lumos – balancing flow, performance, and durability.
