Description
Paint is shaken well before use to mix it. The valve remains open and releases paint the entire time the nib is depressed, so if held down for a long period, a large amount of paint is released. When you see paint appear on the nib, you should pause for a moment. Wait until paint has stopped travelling down the nib before depressing the nib again. When the nib is adequately saturated, test, then apply. Re-pump as necessary but never directly on artwork to avoid paint splodges.
Shake well before use to ensure paint is thoroughly mixed. Depress
nib a few times to start paint flow. The valve remains open and
releases paint the entire time the nib is depressed, so if held
down for a long period, a large amount of paint is released. When
you see paint appear on the nib pause for a moment. Wait until
paint has stopped travelling down the nib before depressing the nib
again. When the nib is adequately saturated, test, then apply.
Re-pump as necessary but never directly on artwork to avoid paint
splodges. It can take a while for paint to start flowing on initial
activation. This will not be experienced on subsequent use.
