Diamine Nib Cleaning Solution


asegier

Recommended Posts

Has anyone ever purchased or used this? I was looking at this product and was curious whether it was safe for the rest of the barrel as well. Or why it was marketed as only for the nib and feed...?

 

Was also curious about the viability of this cleaning solution for vintage pens (thinking of using it on Montblanc 22/24/31/342/Monte Rosa)

I don't have a reply, but bought some and also wondered this ....

 

I've also got a bottle of J. Herbin pen cleaner, which worked wonders on one pen but others have needed several flushes.

 

Is there much difference between the two products?

I chose my user name years ago - I have no links to BBS pens (other than owning one!)

Probably recommended for nib and fed only because the other parts o fhte pen could be madeof plastic, metal, woo or celluloid - or ny other material. So it is safer to say - don'tuse it on these parts rather than list all the possible combinations of pen materials.

I've never seen this one. Do you have the ingredients list for this?

 

I'm wondering if it's the same as the other pen flushes, ie: distilled water, ammonia, surfactant and sometimes a tiny bit of alcohol. ???

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
