Noodlers: American Eel - Rattler Red

[ImCannibal]

One of my all time favorite colors is Red/Black (dark maroon) so when I saw this Rattler Red online I had to pick up a bottle. It's pretty close in color to Diamine Red Dragon but the rattler has more "black" in it than the red dragon.

The printer paper I used for the form didn't allow for as fast of a dry time as some of the paper I use more regularly so I'll update a paper comparison later on.

My only complaint about this ink is how it dries in the pen fairly quickly, so it's definitely an ink you would want to use in a daily pen.

Looks nice. Thanks for the review!

 

Makes me wonder what I would do if I actually encountered a red rattlesnake.

Stand very still.

 

 

BTW, Rattler Red removes stains.

How does it remove stains? Please tell all.

To paraphrase what Amber once explained:

The previous ink dye loves plastic, so it stays with your pen. The Red Rattler comes, and the previous ink loves Red Rattler more, so it leaves with the snake.

 

Trust me, Amber tells it much better than I do.

I actually bought a pot because of that, although fortunately, I have yet to use it for it's secondary duties.

Thank you for this Lgsoltek.

 

Somehow, the poison is the cure.

 

I will add it to the medicine chest promptly.

LOL. I'm sure someone around here can actually do an explanation which makes sense to chemists. I explained it in the way my 12 year old explained it to me after chemistry class.

What is ink is amazing for ... getting out stains. With just one use, the pen went from this:
