Deleter Black No. 4 is formulated for two: to reproduce perfectly and to be waterproof when dry. The carbon black pigment produces a dense, flat matte black that a standard office photocopier or flatbed greyscale scanner reads as maximum black without any graining, ghosting, or uneven density. It also dries fully waterproof — watercolour washes and alcohol-based markers (Copic, Neopiko, Promarker) can be applied over dried Deleter Black No. 4 linework without lifting or bleeding. This combination of photocopy-optimised reproduction and waterproof permanence makes it the highest-quality ink in the Deleter range and the production standard for manga artists who colour digitally after scanning or who add marker or watercolour colour to analogue pages.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe critical warning — not for fountain pens\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCarbon black inks contain carbon particles in suspension. In a dip pen, these particles are harmless — the nib is dipped into the ink and cleaned afterward. In a fountain pen, the particles will settle in the feed channels and clog the pen, potentially irreversibly. Deleter Black No. 4 is for dip pens and brush pens only, without exception. Never use it in a fountain pen. This restriction is stated by Deleter on the product itself.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Deleter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52654439465288,"sku":null,"price":14.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0935\/0709\/2808\/files\/Deleter-Black-4-Ink-Ultra-Matte-Waterproof-Manga-Ink-main.webp?v=1775577297","url":"https:\/\/inkwellartsupplies.com\/products\/deleter-black-4-waterproof-matte-ink","provider":"Inkwell Art Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
