Selected User Reviews For Sax True Flow Water Soluble Block Printing Ink, 8 Ounce Jar, Black - 461924

A great ink, but it is for water soluble surfaces only, so be careful not to smudge it

4/5

The ink I used was so fun to use. For me, it had the right consistency for the prints I make, so on that level, I was delighted. In the end, I found out that once dry, it can be lifted, or smudged on the paper, so that was a disappointment. In the end, it will still be an extra step even after I try using some fixative to make this work. Because of that, it gets a 4 out of 5. We are going to try a different type, such as an acrylic made for screen printing (32 ounces) for 22 dollars. In other words. Yeah, I agree.

There is no need to equate more with Sax true offers a lower price point than Speedball, so I chose to try them since they offer a better deal

3/5

Although I won't need to purchase this brand every time due to its poor quality, I will not be purchasing it again. During my attempts, I found the ink to not apply evenly and to dry quickly upon contact with the lino board. Of my 10 attempts, none came back Few of them could be salvaged and the rest had to be hand painted. It was a tedious task and it didn't seem to be Further, the bottom of the containers appears to be melting as well? In the process, a clear and sticky substance is slowly released. Since all these things are the case, I will probably just throw it away, even though I still have a half jar of it.

Feel free to try it! My lino printing business is back in full swing again! As well as this ink, I love it

5/5

Compared to the speedball waterbased ink, this ink is a lot nicer to work with and you get a lot more color for your money. I would like to try some of their other colors, however first I need to get more linoleum. I only had to wait an hour or two for the ink to dry! The ink is smooth and has a nice tacky sound. It applies easily to paper, even by hand, and dries quickly.
