Toot

Written by Ellyrieve LVK on 2025-01-28 at 11:25

[Screenshot from Winsor Newton] @penfount@penfount.social and other fountain pen enthusiasts, has anyone used this or other blue cap WN calligraphy inks in a fountain pen before? If so did they cause any clogging issues or damage to the pen?

I love Winsor Newton art supplies normally, but I am not sure if I fully trust their claims that this is fountain pen friendly. (Mainly because I am protective over my pens). Link for more info - https://uk.winsornewton.com/products/calligraphy-ink-black?variant=54851574759801

@Ellyrieve-LVK I have a few bottles of that and the consistency is not that of fountain pen ink. If you do stick it in a pen, do so in a pen you're prepared to throw away if it goes wrong. (It could also be fine, but I am sceptical)

@Ellyrieve-LVK Oh, wow! I wouldn't turst Winsor and Newton on this one.

It literally says on the bottle that is for brush pens and dip pens only. So don't use it in a fountain pen, please.

The page also states that is a permanent ink. Permanent inks are not be used in fountain pens.

Oh, they even say it is carbon. Nope, nope.

Good you check in here!
