Ironbridge Fine Arts Relief Open Ink – Green-Black

A brilliant oil based printmaking ink you can leave open available in both Relief and Etching.

As a family printmaking buisness we have developed our own ink, which has enabled us to work with Pantone Colours, we are also able to offer our bulk orders for a lot less cost and Bespoke colours so that printmakers can choice their own colours. Our Inks are well priced and make printing life so easy.

Make etching ink firmer by adding  magnesium powder (not that you ever need to – even on a hot day – when most other inks become runny)

Make ink more oily by adding in linseed reducer or copper plate oil.

Clean up with Printmakers cleaner in a spray bottle and you will find cleaning up a doddle.
