It's more of a warm eggshell white

I ordered the sample because I wasn't sure what to expect. I've been wanting a white for my sketches and to mix grays. This isn't a bad ink and the fluorescence is fun but it wasn't ideal for what I was using it for.

Secret Message Fun!

I used this white ink with a dip pen to write secret messages for a scavenger hunt with my son (on white paper). It was such fun! You do need to make sure you have a black light - I had a penlight that worked perfectly. I didn't try it on dark paper, so I'm not sure how that would look.

A dissapointment of an ink on its own

My thought was this ink was an white-ish/clear ink that fluoresces darkly, I had hoped it was the answer to Noodler's Ghost Blue's main weakness, those bright white papers that glow as brightly as the Ghost Blue ink itself; but that is most definitely not the case here. This ink appears to be made for the mad penthusiast; for blending their own shades of ink or as an ink extender, on its own, its Meh.

Didn't Work on the BLACK Field notes

Got this ink to try and write on my Black Field notes book, sorry to say it didn't work out for me on that one.On the good side it works nicely on a lighter colour of paper for filling in on the eyes as I do some shading for

Online sales experience

I'd arranged through Amazon (I think) to purchase that hyper-expensive hue lightener, Noodler's Whiteness of the Whale. The price offered by Goulet was the best on the net, I received the product promptly. I'd do this again in a heartbeat. In fact, I probably will.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I fill my fountain pen from an ink sample vial? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

The technique depends on the fountain pen's filling mechanism.

How much writing can I really do with 2ml? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

We find that usually you can get 2 good fills for a typical converter with our ink samples, or one good fill with a large capacity piston-filling pen.

How much writing you can do depends on you more than anything else. It mostly depends on how big or small you write, and the nib size you’re using. We recommend experimenting with different nib sizes to find what works best for you.
