guess it would be great for someone trying to keep their diary secret :unsure:

 

 

Then they'd probably want to overlay the invisible text with 'red herring' visible text as a disguise, too.

 

256-bit Twofish encryption for the win, if someone really wants their diary entries not to be readable by others!

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

My microscope pictures of Noodler's Blue Ghost were too exciting not to share immediately...

 

Line width (~270µm; dig those colors):

(That image was a royal pain to capture!)

 

It really is invisible:

(Exact same spot, just without the UV light.)

For many reasons, I think Blue Ghost is cool. Good job capturing the image!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

On a more serious note, the esteemed amberleadavis uses it often to render water loving inks, water repellant..... I was planning at what time to mix it with Apache Sunset....

 

 

Thank you for the shout out.  Yes, I do use it to mix and it is part of one of my favorite orange inks.

That would be one eye-searing Sunset! :yikes: I imagine the other ink will still wash away with water, though. It would be very interesting if Blue Ghost actually made the other dye bond to paper, though.

 

I used it with reds and oranges - while some of the red or orange did wash away, mostly the ink became water resistant.

I suspect the latter - only Blue Ghost remains.

 

Not in my experience.

Nice!  Thanks for the confirmation of how this behaves. :)

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @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

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
