Octopus Fluids Write and Draw inks are unique, smudge-proof and waterproof writing and drawing inks in a wide range of colours. They were developed for daily use in fountain pens and are also popular with graphic artists, illustrators, calligraphers and artists for writing, sketching, drawing and colouring. 

The special feature of the water-based Write and Draw inks is that they are pigmented. In addition, they dry waterproof and smudge-proof. The inks meet the requirements of a document-fast ink (DIN ISO 12757-2 & DIN ISO 14145-2) and are particularly lightfast thanks to their pigments.

There are 38 colours to choose from. The black is particularly intense and was developed especially for sketching. Here, users can look forward to sharp and intensive contours or outlines of their drawings. The colour white has some special features, especially in its application. Up to now, there have hardly been any white writing inks that are suitable for use in a fountain pen. However, beautiful effects can be achieved and accents can be set. The white has a very nice shading on black copy paper. The white can be used to write or draw on existing Write and Draw ink. When using the white ink, the fountain pen should be cleaned immediately after use. Otherwise the pigments will settle in the fountain pen and a strong colour application can no longer be guaranteed. 

When filling the ink with your fountain pen, a few things should also be observed: Shake the jar well before use and use an (adjustable/rotatable) ink converter. Use for 2 to 3 hours without loss of intensity.  Clean the fountain pen immediately after use. 

Cleaning and care:

The water resistance of the Write & Draw Inks is created with the help of a cross-linking binder, so we recommend cleaning the writing instrument directly afterwards. For drawing, we recommend a smooth, wipeable base under the painting surface, which can be cleaned with isopropanol/ethanol or our special cleaner after the work is done. The Write and Draw special cleaner is also vegan, so it rounds off the range perfectly!

They are also 100% vegan.  Made in Germany.
