Ziller Soot Black Ink (Waterproof)

In stock
We only stock items in the TPK Supplies Shop that we love and use ourselves, and Ziller Soot Black ink is one of those supplies! It’s the most waterproof ink that I’ve ever come across, and that’s the reason I use it for all my projects that may come in contact with water. Here are some attributes of this ink:
- It’s fantastic for projects that combine watercolor and calligraphy or illustration, like watercolor maps!
- Since it’s totally waterproof, it’s ideal for creating envelope calligraphy in humid areas or places that tend to get a lot of rain.
- This ink dries nice and matte, without any shine. Because of that, it tends to scan well.

I usually ink over my watercolors. I thought for sure the “professional waterproof technical” pens really were waterproof. Huh! I never would have known if I didn’t take the maps eclass hear at TPK! So I just got my Ziller ink today and did a test of both painting watercolor over each. The Ziller ink remained bright and clear but the other added some gray to the colorwash and lost its crispness. Thank you Lindsey for this great ink!! I plan on never running out!!

This is great ink. I bought it to paint with. I hope to try writing with it too at some point. Thank you!
