Make Your Own Ink, How to...

[randomkiddo]

where do you get all your supllies? dope ink recipes by the way

[Patrick Slayzee]

Cheers man,
I cant tell you how/where I get the violet/blue chemical powders... but I can hook you up with some if you want.
Everything else is basically just from Bunnings (the solvents, gloves, deck stain all that kinda shyte.)
Officeworks. (markers, pens, various stamp pad inks, quill inks etc.)
Otherwise its all been collected over a few years from

Giant Productions.
OzGraff.com
ArtPrimo.com
OinkArtLtd.com

You only have to be 18+ to buy spray paint.

Ok, so now you will have a Jar containing your 50/50 Dymark Raven Oil Mix. (Thinned with acetone.)

And a Jar of your random ink "bases". (For mine I used I splash of Corio, splash of Blue Illidel, Splash of Garvey and some Bleed through Concentrate, and some of the Purple Fiebings (Leather Dye.) and some of the Dykem Blue.
(No real method to this, I just tipped some this, some of that, into the jar, untill Id used everything I have.... )

Take your empty marker.

Add about 1/4 of the Dymark/Raven Oil mix.

Add about 1/4 of the Molotow Mix you've previously made. (if you have it, if you dont, dont worry.)

Top up rest of the marker (to just under where the thread starts, or less) with your "ink base" mix.

Add to this a heaped teaspoon of Gentian Violet, and if you want, another heaped teaspoon of Methylene Blue.

Watch your consistencies, as this has the potential to become extremely watery and "leaky".
Take into consideration how much of your "added inks" already contain plenty of xylene/alcohol/acetone whatever....)

Lift a few drops of Xylene using the maccas straw, and add those.

Add approx half a teaspoon of RP7 (or WD40, or fish oil....)

Do up your marker as well and as carefully as you can.

Shake it. Hard. Make sure everything gets mixed up, the powders dissolve etc.

Pump the ink through the nib, and go destroy everything.

I would recomend using the ink in the nib up each time, before you put the lid back on... this one gets messy.

Each time you make an ink, try and jot down a rough "recipe".
Go  chuck up a tag somewhere that gets buffed, just so you can see how well it performed.
Once your happy you've created a monster, stick to that one.

Pump valve "flow pen" style markers. (sorry, got over excited with arrows.... )

Also, here's a really nice secret that beats taping and untaping up your marker everytime to fill/refill it.

Just before you screw on the top, slap some ordinary paper glue, or rub a glue stick onto the thread.
This will seal it, so the ink cant leak out of there, and when you go to unscrew it again, it will just crack off as you turn it.

yeah me nd a mate are goin to giant soon probs on the weekend what ink is worth  getting?

[Patrick Slayzee]

Molotow Coversall fo sho. Itll be like $25, but last ya ages.
Deffinately grab a molotow burner marker too. And you'll want
Atleast 1 replacement nib too.

The grog goes ok, and is a bit cheaper.

None stain or are "hard to buff" or whatever they say...


If your loaded with cash get the big tin of "Marsh Tgrade" hes got, and ill show
You a killer combo to put with that.

[Patrick Slayzee]

Ill suss out the razor ink later and let ya know...
If I can smell it through the unopened tin, its gotta be good right!?

[randomkiddo]

yeah pity im not 18 or i'd pickup some laks and shit :/

[randomkiddo]

oi are you serious about being able to hook us up with some of them powders bro? like how much for what price etc

[Patrick Slayzee]

Ironlak sucks.

Use MTN, 94 or Sabotaz80. Actually, just get yourself one of these "sekt" cap adaptors, and rock out with $2 exports.

[randomkiddo]

yeah 2 dolla exports haha i know a shop where the girl sells em to under 18 but she makes em 5 bucks fuck that unless im real desperate

[Patrick Slayzee]

[Patrick Slayzee]
