For what? Coated paper? Uncoated paper? Canvas? Skin? Is it exposed to UV? Moisture? There are different ink formulas for basically every substrate so they adhere properly.

theres no universe where the savings will amount to enough to justify the cleanup mess making your own ink will generate

01. The ink i want to make should be good for graffiti. Which means hard to buff, uv resistant, fast drying and drippy.
02. Its not about saving, its about experimenting and maybe selling?
Already got some ideas but not yet tried mixing stuff.

I feel like what you’re looking for is charcoal powder suspended in a thin epoxy binder. so what you should be googling is “how to make glue at home”. gl making that binder though, if a cheap diy solution existed I feel like you’d already know.
>>2943502 (OP)
Get some black soot from something (eg chimney pipe), mix with some kind of binder like varnish (or pine resin) and thin it down with solvents like alchohol or turpintine until it’s at the consistency you want.
>>2943502 (OP)
Collect soot from an oil candle/lamp
Mix it with your choice of binder (usually water and gelatin with a very very small amount of essential oils for odour)
Et Voila!
OP this is where you learn about "Safety Datasheets or SDS" where they list what chemicals are in their product, and then you find what other products if any have similar ingredients for cheaper.
>section 3 composition/information on ingredients >50-75% of t he ingredient is ethanol
Anyways here take a look and they provide CAS # too.
