We found the following characteristics while reviewing Robert Oster Motor Oil ink that you may find helpful:<\/p>\n
Testing Factors<\/h2>\n
We used Rhodia dot pad paper with a French made glass dip pen by J. Herbin<\/a>, which has a tip similar to a fine fountain pen nib.<\/p>\n Robert Oster Motor Oil ink comes in the standard plastic\u00a0Robert Oster 50 ml. ink<\/a> bottle. The clear, environmentally friendly bottle is simple, with a smaller ribbed lid containing a white label identifying the color of the ink inside\u00a0and\u00a0a small color swab. The simplicity of the ink bottle helps keeps the cost down for this imported ink.<\/p>\n Robert Oster Motor Oil ink is a mid-priced ink, retailing for $17.00 in the United States. This is a reasonable value, considering that each bottle is handcrafted in Australia and then imported to America.<\/p>\n Robert Oster Motor Oil ink had a dry time of approximately 7-8 seconds during our review. This is not super quick but reasonable enough for use as an every day ink color. What do you expect for Motor Oil?<\/p>\n We did not notice any bleeding during any part of our review of Robert Oster Motor Oil ink.<\/p>\n We did not experience any feathering during normal use with Robert Oster Motor Oil ink. However, during the water test, we did notice some feathering and line distortion, but only at the wettest points of the test.<\/p>\n Robert Oster Motor Oil ink is not waterproof, but held up pretty well during the water test. During this test, we ran a wet cotton swab over a dried ink sample of Robert Oster Motor Oil ink. We found significant color smearing, which is not unusual for a dark non-water proof color. There was some slight feathering at the wettest points, but no additional bleeding or real line distortion.<\/p>\n Robert Oster inks in general are known for their shading. Robert Oster Motor Oil ink however is a unique color and we were not sure how much shading would be noticed. We were able to achieve some unique shading though using Robert Oster Motor Oil ink. The ink varied from a light brown\/gold color to a dark black-brown-green color. We did notice some slight blue sheening as well at the wettest points of the cotton swab test. This sheening would also be more prevalent using certain paper such as Tomoe River.<\/p>\n Robert Oster Motor Oil ink is a common name, but unique color from Robert Oster Ink Company<\/a>. It has nice characteristics such as shading, reasonable dry time and is dark enough for use as an every day ink at the office or home. It’s crazy to think that you might just put \u201cmotor oil\u201d into your favorite fine writing instrument, but highly recommended! Happy Writing.<\/p>\nBottle Sizes<\/h2>\n
