typed this one up cause i was bored.. please reply and add tips for me and the others.



purple ink universal recipe for alllll refillable ink markers (NOT TESTED ON PAINT MARKERS)

newspaper-------------------------------------------------------optional.
tweezzers or pliers ------------------------------------------optional.
strainer( the finer the better) -----------------------------optional.
gloves-------------------------------------------------------------optional.
funnel.------------------------------------------------------------optional.
DOT-3 brake fluid-------------------------------------------- optional.
something like a grocery bag ------- -------------------1
bottle. something large and trustworthy,------------1
rubbing alcohol ( more than 80% alcohol )---------The amount of ink you want.
black ballpoint pens. ------------------------------------- atleast 2 bags. ('bout 100 pens so you'll be good for more batches.)
grocery bags.------------------------------------------------like 4.

(all this stuff can be bought at your local grocery store, even the brake fluid---it'll be on the same aisle as the insect repellant.

1.take the pens apart and cut the peices that hold the ink into fourths or halves
2.pour the rubbing alcohol into the bag and drop the peices in it.

continue until you get the consistancy and darkness you want
or slighty before that texture so you can add dot 3---makes it stain hard.
(litterly add drops, to much will f*ck the batch.)

(you should make a batch for a certain marker before you run out so you can get
the exact texture as the oringal -or thinner, NEVER thicker)
(if the ink gets to thin, add a little grape kool aid mix to thinken. (makes the ink smell good too!))
4.once the ink looks good stir or shake the bag (CAREFULLY)
cause if that sh*t spills on mom's carpet, you gonna be salty.
5. use your fingers, tweezers, pliers or dump the ink though the strainer to get out all the peices out.
Note- if using strainer, you can dump the ink into another grocery bag
6. use the funnel to pour the ink into your marker, mop, or other type of marking tool.

-Other notes.
marbles or ball bearings are not required.(take up space and make noise,)
clean orignal nib reallly good before you load this sh*t.
HOW-dip the nib in paint thinner or windex and then wash troughly with water and let dry before juicing it with this ink,
if the marker your using is make of plastic i heard that the brake fluid can eat it away and ink will get everywhere.. soo be careful. (store in clean tied up grocery bag with the marker facing up.
------CREDIT GOES TO OUTRUN1.
-----------I DO NOT CONDONE GRAFFITI OR OTHER VANDALISM.
----------------FOR INFORMABLE PURPOSES ONLY.

why use a grocery bag? seems unhandy if you're trying to get it from the bag to the marker :?

If i'm thinking of the same ink recipe as this, it's a lot easier if you use a container with a lid so you can shake it because a lot of ink will sit at the bottom and be wasted. Something like a jar or tupperware container, bowl...what ever, just something with a lid.

Not as easy as you'd think. A cap full of dot-3 should do the trick if you want stains. Go to a pet store and get some Methylene Blue powder. When a fish has Ich you mix the Meth Blue with water and it helps the lil guy out. That will help if you're worried about it getting painted over because it eats through paint...pretty sick. And for a little flair, get some Pearl Ex from michaels and add some to your ink. Its a metallic pigment that makes your sh*t shine like a mo fo. More pigment = more shine. Don't worry about it blocking your nib or anything because it's only about 10 microns. Definitely small enough to go through a standard nib.

i have yet to find any xylene.
if i had some, id use it to thin smash ink a tiny bit, i hear it dry's up the nibs on flowpen's/molotow empty markers

if you want, you could try making ghetto krink, but instead of paint thinner, use xylene.
see how it works, and let us know.

almost any plastic you get these days is going to be HDPE, its cleaner, safer for the enviorment, and can stand hard chemicals.
put it in a marker made for graff, the only non-HDPE marker i can think of is the krink K66

isnt the k66 the same as the k60 and k63?

the k66 is the one with the ball-point-pen like nib.
i remember armn saying it isnt made out of HDPE.
