With Essdee Premium Block Printing Ink Pearl, you can work with a high-quality, water-based block printing and lino printing ink with a glossy pearlescent effect on paper and cardboard. This ink is specially developed for graphic printing techniques such as linocuts and block printing and combines smooth application with striking, light-reflecting results.
The pearlescent effect creates a subtle metallic sheen that adds depth and a luxurious look to prints.
The ink is water-based, making it pleasant to use and easy to clean with warm water while still wet. This makes it ideal for creative projects at home, at school, or in workshops.
This printing ink is not permanent, allowing prints and rollers to be quickly cleaned after use. Please note: Once dry, water-based ink may be slightly more susceptible to bleeding or light fading on some surfaces than oil-based inks. Within the Essdee Premium series, pearlescent and metallic inks are mixable with other colors in the series, allowing you to create unique effects and shades.
