Materials: brush, water, clip, pen wash or bowl, bottle.
1 First of all, the most basic misunderstanding is that you need to open a pen before using a new pen, and you can't write directly with ink. For a new brush, you need to put the new brush in the brush cleaning or bowl, so (cold water or warm water) will make the whole nib disappear.
2. Flying brush and medium and large brush can be screwed by hand and belong to universal brush. The way to start a pen is to gently twist the nib with your fingers: from the nib to the root, the bristles need to be completely dispersed.
3. After all brushes are turned on, remove the floating hairs in the nib.
4. Soak the new pen with cold water or warm water, and avoid scalding with boiling water. Put it in a pen wash (or other container), the depth of water should make the pen tip immerse, and the pen tip should not touch the bottom of the container.
5. Use clips (long tail clothespins, etc.). ) Clip the brush to the side of the bottle so that the pen tip is suspended in the bottle. Be careful not to let the nib press against the bottom of the bottle.
6. After washing, gently squeeze out the glue to seal the pen, straighten the pen and hang it up.
7. Never put the wet pen tip up. If the pen tip that is not completely dried is placed upward, it is easy to pour the residual ink into the pen holder, causing the pen tip to fall off and the pen holder to crack.
8. Ink injection: Immerse all pens in ink. Without ink, it will be too dry and the operation will not be free. If there is too much ink, the waist will be soft, and neither will do. When you have a lot of ink, you can lick the pen along the edge of the ink bowl and step off the excess ink.
9. When using the brush for the first time, put the nib in the ink for a period of time, and let the nib absorb enough ink before using it. Especially for large pens, the soaking time is longer, so that the pen can absorb enough ink.
Matters needing attention in opening a new brush are as follows:
1, cold water pen.
Some people think that soaking in cold water is slower. So someone boiled water. Although this method is faster, the first disadvantage is that high temperature is easy to hurt the pen. Secondly, the top of the pen is easy to wet the fixing glue. Later, in the process of using a writing brush, it is easy to cause hair loss and baldness, which is fatal to using a pen in the future.
Step 2 soak slowly.
Soaking the brush in cold water for a long time, just like boiling the brush, will make the glue at the root of the brush lose its viscosity and cause dispersion. When cooking in cold water, we must pay attention to one problem, that is, we should not soak it for too long, which will make the brush depilate.
