Dear Baren Group,,
At the risk of commercializing this response, I'll be brief - I don't know if anyone has tried the Caligo line of relief inks - they are oil based but clean up with soap and water. This is a new ink in the U.S. but has been popular overseas for some time. If anyone would like more information on these, or samples, please let me know.

I'll further confuse the issue and suggest that another UK manufacturer --
Hawthorn Printmaker Supplies -- also makes washable inks. Might also be worth
a look. They're very small but helpful. They sent me a litre bottle of
citrus-oil veggie detergent for testing, when I'd only asked for advice on the
subject!

Anyway, here's the link:

(Hope that doesn't sound too much like an ad -- I'm not connected to them in
any way :-) )

cheers,

Hi ,

I definitely would like more info on the Caligo line and if samples are available my address is Ruth Feldman 303 Grove St . Boston, Ma 02132. I've been using Danial Smith waterbased but wish there was more variety in colors.
Thanks,Ruth
