Description
Schmincke Aqua Linoprint Individual Inks provide artists and printmakers with a versatile assortment of water-based colours for linocut and other relief-printing processes. The range consists of 15 standard colours together with Silver, Gold and Copper effect colours, allowing individual shades to be selected or combined to build a customised printing palette.
Each colour is formulated with Gum Arabic and high-quality organic or inorganic pigments. The range offers excellent lightfastness of 4–5 stars together with strong colour intensity, making it suitable for both monochrome impressions and layered multicolour prints.
Aqua Linoprint inks are ready to use and can be mixed with one another to create additional shades. They may also be diluted with water when required. For relief printing, the ink is rolled out thinly before being applied evenly to the printing block with a linoleum roller. The design is then transferred by pressing the prepared block evenly against the chosen printing surface.
The inks can be used for linocut, woodcut, stamp making and material printing on suitable surfaces such as smooth paper, coloured cardboard, felt and fabric. Prints become smudge-resistant in approximately 15 minutes, depending on the substrate and application, allowing subsequent layers to be overprinted. Once dry, Aqua Linoprint colours are not waterproof.
