The Nib Dries Up As I Am Using The Pen - Aurora Talentum

[ssgupta]

I have a black Aurora Talentum that I really like. However it dries up on me as I am writing with it, and it does not even matter how full the cartridge is.... the line just goes dry and dry until ink stops coming out.

 

I then take off the barrel, give few taps with the index finger's nail and it starts to write again.

 

How do I solve this issue, it is a beautiful pen and I really like how it looks and writes just after the tapping. But I cannot use it at work anymore as I have to keep doing the routine regularly.

 

Any help appreciated!!!

What cartridge are you using?

What other cartridges fit?

 

If it was a converter I'd suggest adding a small ball to break surface tension.
