The best ink for Linocut
The best coverage and the easiest cleanup, if you know how. I clean up at the workbench with newsprint and lots of Lysol disinfectant wipes, then I take the brayer to the sink and rub Dawn dish detergent into the rubber (no water at first). When it's all soaped up, I rinse in cold water, pat dry with paper towels, and dust with cornstarch to keep the brayer dry. Once you get this down to a system, it's quick, easy, and effective.

The only alternative I have found for oil based printing ink
Most brands like speed ball just don’t come close, but this is marvelous. The whole brand.

Love the richness and even coverage.
Why did you pick this product vs others?: I wish I could afford more of this ink. I would buy it in every color. Love this product.

Great for linocut
Using for linocut prints. Prints much better than water-based ink. When cleaning up, best to apply soap BEFORE using water. I won't use any other ink from now on.
