Great thick quality, exceeded my expectations!!
Very nice quality of ink! I love the color and how quickly it dries. This is definitely the best value for the money, I know the tubes come with a little less so I think this is absolutely worth it. I really enjoy the texture of this ink, it’s soft and thick and exactly the way I like it!! Very practical and easy to use, I would highly recommend it for beginners or advanced print makers!

great quality
Love this ink. I had bought a lincout intro kit, that definitely got me into it, but the prints would come out blotchy or they would not register. I thought i wasnt carving right. I got this ink a few days ago and the different is abismal. Details register and it comes out in solid black.

excellent professional grade ink.
Excellent and budget friendly ink. I have used it professionally for years across multiple printing processes. One can learn how to prep paper damp level through trial and error and it pays off beautifully in excellent saturation, viscosity and easy clean up. Moved from oil some years back and now using essentially non toxic but I won's compromise color quality. I am a serious fan despite many friends moving to some of the sexy newer brands. I like my results so staying with this after trying many others.

AWESOME but did not adhere well!
Finally broke open this tube and decided to do some printing experiments with this very "neon" color. and WOW. ink seems slightly thicker and tackier than other colors and it made a really REALLY cool print on turquoise paper. BUT.... after it dried I noticed I could rub the ink off the paper with a small amount of pressure. Not even a fingernail just using my finger. Just like powder. BUMMED OUT. So I went and bought some Krylon fixative and sprayed it. Took a couple of coats, and I HATE the toxicity of the fumes, but I love my final product. Will keep working with this and see if I can figure out more about it because I LOVE the color.

Me gusta la textura, el color y que sea al agua.
Un color muy bonito, me gusta mucho que puedo limpiar bien con papel, luego con un plato y finalmente lavar el resto con agua (siento que contamina menos por ser al agua). Para hacer sellos es perfecto! Uso a veces la tinta diluida como acuarela!!!

Speedball water soluble ink
I use this block printing red ink on my hand carved holiday card. I roll the ink on the block I carved with a snowman, gently press over it with a spoon and print about 100 every year!

Great value for non-toxic block printing ink
Needed a non-toxic paint for an art party with adults and kids. This was perfect! A little goes a long way so this stuff lasts!

The black ink smudges and ruins your work
Really disappointed with this brand. I bought the brown ink which was excellent quality. I thought all their colours would be of this quality. I got a black one and it never dries fully, even after days and weeks. It easily smudges and has left me with a lot of pointless wastage for my work. This is quite pricey for water based ink that is supposed to be considered good quality. I won't risk buying another colour again. Really disappointing and lacks consistency as a brand. Avoid!

Ótimo produto
O produto chegou em perfeitas condições. Há pouco tempo comecei a usar tinta a base de água para imprimir, com a vantagem da limpeza fácil e secagem rápida. Por outro lado, a mesma secagem rápida da tinta não ajuda muito na hora de imprimir e o brilho do material no papel é diferente, ainda que a tinta a base de água também tenha boa aparência. Pela praticidade e por não ter um ateliê equipado para a gravura, fico com esta última.

SECADO LENTO
La tinta permanece demasiado tiempo húmeda después de aplicarse, tal como se indica en el producto, fue un error que debí tener en cuenta.No me ha gustado su consistencia que no es homogénea, como cabría esperarse.
