Liquid Extender is used to thin Akua Liquid Pigment if it has become too thick - for instance, it will re-constitute “air thickened” ink. Can be used with Akua Liquid Pigment but not with Akua Intaglio Ink. It - has a thick consistency and is transparent in colour. - Adding water to Akua Liquid Pigment Inks is not advisable as water will cause ink to dry on the monotype plate and prevent it from releasing onto dry paper. Use the Extender directly with the colours on the palette that have become too thick. It can also be added to Akua Liquid Pigment to dilute it and create more transparency without having an effect on the consistency.

This tool is used to prepare metal plates for mezzotints. By repeatedly working the tool over the surface of the plate in a rocking motion, the printmaker can create a smooth carpet of burrs, which will hold ink and show up as a dark area when the plate is printed. This rough surface can then be smoothed with a scraper or burnisher, which will lighten the print in those areas.EC Lyons rockers are known world wide as the finest mezzotint rockers available. Lyons rockers have handles of stained birch and a tool surface of high carbon tool steel.
