I just bought a set at the market this weekend for $5. They need some clearing and repair, and I came across your video when I tried to find out about them. Thank you very much for the little intro about these pens!
It depends on the ink. It could be water based, but it is probably india ink or even could be an ink that has a base of mucilage and pigment. You could try rubbing alcohol and also nail polish remover. I'd try water first to see if the ink moves, then I'd try the rubbing alcohol nail polish remover with a q-tip or soft cloth first. Go easy, but those should work.
@@HassonStudio Thank you very much for your advice! Cleaned some of it with water, but there are some solids around the inside edge. I'll try the rubbing alcohol/nail polish remover on them. Thanks again for your help! Looking forward to more great videos on your channel!
Hi Kim, That should be water soluble ink, so warm water and a toothbrush should work. A quick google search shows that there is a Dr. Martin's pen cleaner; I use ammonia based household cleaners when I am using acrylics in those and other pens, so that should work on what you are using as well.
Thank you so much !ok, I will do this. I thought that in was water soluble. I will not use that next time.I do not use ink very much but I want to start. I enjoyed this video!
