Pull vibrant prints that clean up with water and dry to a satiny finish
Water-based formulations simplify cleanup without sacrificing print quality. Speedball's water soluble block printing inks wash from tools and surfaces with plain water, eliminating the need for solvents while delivering rich, saturated color with a distinctive satiny finish. The consistency stays workable during extended rolling and printing sessions, giving you time to achieve even coverage across your block before committing to the impression.
These inks perform reliably across linoleum, wood, flexible printing plates, and rubber stamp blocks. The formulation adapts to different surface textures while maintaining consistent transfer, whether you're pulling editions on a press or hand-printing with a baren. Colors dry permanent once cured, building opacity through layering when reduction printing demands multiple passes.
ASTM D-4236 conformance makes these inks appropriate for educational settings alongside studio work. Available in 1.3 oz tubes for color sampling and small projects, 2.5 oz tubes for regular printmaking, and 16 oz jars when production demands volume. The water-based chemistry means quick cleanup between colors and at session's end, brushes, brayers, and palette surfaces rinse clean without harsh chemicals.
