The water-based, high-quality aqua-Linoprint colours contain natural binders such as gum Arabic as well as organic/inorganic pigments. They are easy to apply due to optimum open-times and result in even, sharp prints with fast drying times (wipe-resistant after approx. 15 minutes).
All colours offer maximum light fastness (4 and 5 stars) and an excellent intensity (especially black). The formulation for the colours in tubes and jars is the same. Due to its fluid consistency all aqua-Linoprint colours can easily be applied to different surfaces such as paper, felt, cardboard and suitable also for wood engraving and printing with various materials.
The smooth colours are of pleasant odour and can be overprinted with other colours. They are intermixable, ready to use and can be diluted with water.
Speedball Professional Relief Inks are lightfast and archival
oil-based printmaking inks which can be washed up with just soap
and water. These inks are designed for all types of relief
printing, especially linocut and woodcut.This is an 8oz (236.5ml)
tin of Dioxazine Violet (PV23, Speedball Lightfastness rating II).
It is suitable for mixing with any of the Speedball Professional
Relief Ink colours. To increase the transparency of this ink, add
Speedball Professional Relief Transparent Base. The ink can be
stiffened with talc or magnesium carbonate, and thinned with water.
Because the ink can be thinned with water, it is preferable to
print onto dry paper.
Lascaux Wash resist has been specially designed as part of the acrylic-resist etching system and should be used in combination with Lascaux Aquatint spray resist. This unique acid resist is painted on etching plates to create washes and tonal effects. They are particularly effective on brass and copper.
Akua Intaglio Ink was originally formulated for intaglio printmaking, however this ink can also be applied with a brayer for relief printmaking, monotype, and collagraphs; and it will print from any plastic, wood, linoleum or metal plate. It is a soy based ink which is made with high quality lightfast pigments. The inks have a thick consistency with minimal water content and contain no toxic driers - this means a longer working time. The ink cleans up easily with a dry rag followed by soap and water. Inexpensive liquid dish detergent can be used. Never use toxic solvents. Prints can be re-soaked immediately after printing if handled carefully. Once the print is dry, Akua Intaglio is permanent. Ink will never skin or harden in the jar or the ink slab, meaning minimal ink is wasted. Wiping the plate with Akua Intaglio is easier than wiping oil-based ink, meaning you need to spend less time cleaning up.
For printmakers interested in non-toxic printmaking, Caligo are pleased to offer a new and innovative range of oil-based inks that can be washed away with liquid soap and water, without the need for harmful and often more expensive solvents. They call these inks ‘safe wash’ and they are available for both relief and intaglio printing.Caligo Safe Wash Etching inks are suitable for all types of intaglio printing, for example, etching, aquatint, line engraving etc.This range does not contain any driers. If you want faster drying rates, you can add a small amount of cobalt or manganese driers.

Heavy Body Artist Acrylic Paint, previously referred to as High
Viscosity, has a thick consistency for traditional art techniques using
brushes or knives, as well as for experimental, mixed media, collage
and printmaking applications. Impasto applications retain crisp brush
stroke and knife marks. Good surface drag provides excellent handling
and blending characteristics with increased open-working time. High
pigment load produces rich, brilliant, permanent colour.

Lascaux Plate-backing resist has been specially designed as part of the acrylic-resist etching system. This new generation acid resist is painted onto the back and the edges of etching plates to protect the metal from the action of the mordant. Lascaux Plate-backing resist is water-soluble, ready to use, non-toxic and suitable for use on copper, brass, zinc, steel and aluminium. This red coloured resist is highly acid-resistant, durable and scratch-resistant. It may be used on unbitten or previously etched (e.g. aquatint, deep open bite) and is compatible with the other Lascaux resists and photopolymer resists such as Photec. The resist may also be used to create a variety of effects on collagraph plates

Pigment info: PV19Series 44oz (118ml) squeeze bottleAkua Liquid Pigment was originally developed for monotype printmaking, but it can also used for other techniques such as Japanese woodcut and painting on paper. The Liquid Pigment contains no chalk, fillers dryers or polymers and the addition of honey give the colours a brilliant, vibrant appearance that dry with a luminous finish. It has a slow drying formula which will allow for an extended working time to create images on a monotype plate. It is thick in consistency which is perfect for both additive and reductive monotype techniques. It can be mixed into Akua Intaglio Inks or the Transparent Base to create new colours, it can also be printed on top or beneath Akua Intaglio inks for multi-plate overlays. All colours are lightfast. The Liquid Pigment is rolled directly onto the plate rather than transferring the ink from a separate slab, saving time and money. The pigment can easily be modified to adjust the sheen, thickness and transparency. It prints beautifully on dry paper as it stays wet on the plate, eliminating the need for prior soaking, blotting, flattening and drying. Where the paper will not stretch or shrink, this means that your print will be registered perfectly. The pigment cleans up easily with just water and a rag. As there are no suspension agents added, pigment can settle at the bottom of the bottle. There is a mixing ball enclosed in the squeeze bottle to allow you to easily mix the pigment.

Japanese synthetic waterstones and slipstones for sharpening lino and
woodcut tools of all types.
A medium, 1000 grit multiform synthetic waterstone from Japan. On one
edge the curved radius changes from 13mm to 3mm over its length. The
opposite edge is tapered at an angle of about 40° making it ideal for
sharpening the inside of V tools. The overall design allows the
sharpening of a wide variety of tools from flat and wide to small
narrow gouges and all V tools.
The 1000 grit can be described as a medium stone and is used to sharpen
to an almost perfect cutting edge. The 4000 grit or fine stone is used
for the final hone and polish and will leave the tool ready for use.
Before use the stones will need to be soaked in water for 10 to 15
minutes. After use the stones are best air dried and wrapped in a soft
cloth for storage.
