awesome "stamp cleaner" mop with mohair! perfect nib size, perfect body size.
one problem i had with black ink in this mop was that i didn't know exactly why the nib keeps getting clogged even when i poked holes through the mohair (not going through the plastic) with a big needle to open it up, maybe because i mixed a lot of black staining powder, but i doubt it though.
if you have the same problem this is a solution thats not temporary like poking holes. trim the mohair down with a small pair of scissors, pop the nib off and take out the regulator (plastic spring-like piece) with tweezers, put the nib back in and test it out. the writing will be smooth and the drips are super easy to control. i guarantee it won't clog up/not drip again.
it works just fine as it is with my purple ink that consists of garvey, grog, blue bleed through concentrate and purple staining powder.
for use with silver paint/smash inks, rack the cotton nibs from your local michael's. in the stamp section under stamp cleaners. it'll be like using a k-60 with a wider nib.
