I need some advice... I love refilling my fountain pens with a different ink without flushing them, so there is a gradient effect when I write. So far it works... do you think this could be bad for the pen? #inktalk

@distel should be fine as long as you're mixing water-based with water-based

@noiob I think in fountain pens there's only waterbased.. ah, maybe you mean the waterproof inks that are now available? that makes sense not to mix them with the others!

@distel idk, Wikipedia mentions alcohol-based inks once and never again

@distel sounds like it'd smell pretty bad while writing
