The water-based ink is waterproof on paper once dried and is dermatologically tested for safe handling during installation and occasional contact.

How to use

Usage recommendations

For removal of fresh water-based ink from smooth non-absorbent surfaces, wipe with water and, if necessary, mild soap. For textiles, pre-treat with soapy water and rub or brush; if required, follow with a polar solvent such as alcohol and test on an inconspicuous area first. To clean skin, use soapy water and gentle rubbing. Store the cartridge in a cool, dry place and avoid direct sunlight to preserve ink quality.
