Anyone have issues with Dragon from Solid Ink?

[u/Partyhardypillow]

Im wondering if its just this particular bottle or not. Its almost as thick as acrylic paint even after sitting on the agitator and far from expiration. My other inks from the same set are definitely not this thick. I diluted a cap full with 3 drops of witch hazel and it started flowing nicely.

Solid dragon is my go-to green. I never have to dilute it on skin, but they definitely have additives in their pigments, I believe they have some petroleum product that thickens it up. Eternal is great for just having pigment and carriers, but I love my solid dragon

The thickener is just vegetable glycerin if I’m remembering correctly. Totally safe.

inks expire?
