Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Wow. I admit to being bemused to see how well the Noodler's Coral Sea Blue did in the test ! I knew that it was tough ink, but not to that extent.

 

Thanks very much for running these tests.

I really appreciate all your work on this. For me lightfastness is an important property of ink, even though most of my writings don't get exposed to sun that much, since I consider it an important factor in its long-term stability.

Well, I pulled out the last white board. I guess the caboose leaks. crybaby.gif So the board has some water damage. The board also fell at a 45 degree angle, so it didn't get as much sun. I'll be posting pictures with the warnings.

Thank you. I appreciate the feedback.

 

Sometimes we go to look at old diaries or recipe cards and even though they were kept closed in books, the inks have just disappeared. At the nursery, our price tags would fade within a month so I'm aware about the effects of the sun.

This is the final image of 1-10. This one was also at the caboose and did not receive as much direct sunlight.

As you can see these Sakura gelly rolls did not hold up as well as the regular Gelly Rolls.

As you can see, inks that were diluted with water faded more.

#25 will be posted later.

 

#26 was also on the less light board.

 

Compare it to this one and this other tree.

#27 was split into smaller sections. One part was sent to Texas for some comparison pics. Those portions have not yet been returned.
