Sterilink or Ink Safe

[mge01park]

I bought these products several months back and used some in a bottle of Noodler's Hunter Green based upon a concern that it may have caused some trouble with an Aurora Optima of mine that wound up with mold months back and was resolved by Ron at Main Street beautifully (there were some other problems with it as well). Have you folks found the ink changing after putting a drop or two in and in my case putting some extra...I am feeling that it's dulled out the ink some unless it was always like that which I believe is not the case from the reviews here.

 

I know the products are excellent.

 

thanks much

I have used InkSafe in three different colors of Noodler's: The Sun Never Sets; Chekhov and Aztec Gold. Great results (poor flow improved) with no adverse effects. Ink color seems unchanged.

I used only the recommended amount of InkSafe.

I use either SterilInk or InkSafe in every bottle of ink I open, including Noodler's inks (although I've never used Hunter Green). I've never noticed color change. Did you shake the bottle of ink after adding the product? Also, I always shake my ink before filling a pen, especially seems important in saturated inks such as Noodler's.

 

However, it's unclear from your post whether you added the Tryphon product to a new bottle of ink to prevent problems, or if you added it to a possibly bad bottle of ink in order to "cure" it. If you suspect a bad bottle of ink, then toss that bottle, since adding SterilInk or InkSafe will not bring that ink back to a usable state.

I put a drop of sterilink in every bottle of ink I have, and have experienced no change at all. With Noodlers you've got to shake the bottle or the color will appear different. Maybe that explains it. Either that or you had a touch of water left in the pen you filled.

Thanks on the responses.
