So, we used the Solv-X ink for two fills and 2 fills with vintage Sheaffer Blue Black. You can't tell that it was ever stained.

Does anyone know if current Quink still has solv-X in it? Luckily I do still have an older bottle of blue that says solv-x on the label. But there's little ink left. So I wonder whether I have to keep this tucked away in case I manage to get a stained pen.

No it doesn't. However, bottles of older Quink w/Solv-X do show up on eBay, so keep an eye out for bottles that aren't too expensive.

And one of the new brands out of India contains Solv-X. I did find that the Vintage Sheaffer inks are terrific cleaners.

Yes, I have a small 30-ml bottle of Black with Solv-X. It hasn't really inspired me to great heights yet...

Yes, but I have a 30ml bottle of the new Indian Parker Quink Black w/Solv-X. It came with a pen I bought online.

I use the pen, but not the ink.

Ok, I will see what I can do.

Would you like a beta sample of Faux Penman Sapphire #10? Made only with the finest Iroshizuku inks? It's a little bit more expensive than FPS #9, which is half water, but it does have those special characteristics that the Iro inks have.

Does it sheen? Oh, and wait, I can make it here, I think. Did you do Asagao and Kon Peki? Or Kon Peki and Mura - drat the purple one.

Inquiring minds want to know!! Have you tried mixing a little Asa-gao into Tsuyu-kusa?

FPS #10 Beta - 2 parts Asa-gao, 1 part Kon-peki.

Samples at home. You'll have to wait. Patiently.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      By Misfit · Posted

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
