    Default Schmidt Inks are a bit too permanent

    I have a wenge Sedona that I use daily at work with a schmidt refil in it. Writes beautifully and the ink clearly flows very well.

    I looked down at my desk this afternoon and there's blue everywhere All over my hands, desk, etc. Didn't notice anything as I'm wearing a dark blue shirt but I'd put the pen back into my pocket with the cap on the wrong end . Maybe there is a case for non-postable pens after all!

    Anyway, took ages to clean up and it's still stuck to everything. At least the stain was about the same colour as my shirt . Might wash it seperately tonight though!

    Cheers,
    Dave

    LOL, good one mate.

    My Sedona Fountain Pen that I use at work every day has Noodlers Bulletproof Black in it. The ink outlasts the paper it's written on. Given the cap seems to have a tendency to unscrew itself in my pocket, I'm always panicking I'll end up with a permanent black mark on my shirt. So far, so good (crosses fingers).

    I have had many a mishap with many a different pen You will need to wash it before the ink dries for the best results, pre-spray with stain remover and had rubbing with nappy stuff or similar also helps.

    Bad luck

    It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
