If your using black a lot on a tattoo should you rinse in between? As in does the ink dry on the needle during work?

There is another way that works really well. When you dip the tip of your cartridge into the rinse cup let the grip rest against the lip of the cup but, not in the water. It turns the rinse cup into a ultrasonic cleaner sending vibrations through the cup and cleaning the cartridge faster and more efficiently. Give it a try and let me know what you think. Thanks for the vids Bro!

I know your comment it super old but I saw this to make sure using paper towels was fine. I was scared of the micro materials getting into the needle, but anyway! LOL I loved your comment, it makes so much sense. I will be trying that method from now on! Thank you 😀

Can distilled witch hazel be used to spray in the cartridge for the rotary pen???

I love watching all of your videos! but I do have a question about this one. it’s OK that the needles are going into the napkin fiber? those won’t transfer into the skin at some point?

Hey man, just curious do the tattoos create any lint on the needle when you do this to get the ink water out?

Do you buy assorted needles or singles packs if so do you have links please thanks bud I'm testing out a rotary pen just wanna know what needle packages you get !

Does this work for white too?

thanks for create video like this please can make a video how use and when to use liquid blue soap and form blue soap entare you tube dont have any video how to use and when use this thank you

if your machine is always running , and you do black n grey tones - if that machines runs all the rime and you dip several times lets say little in the dark tone and then one dip in your lightest tone to get a different grey in between , would that muddy up the tones quick , lets say after 5 hours every tone would be the same and heal in just one grey tone ?

Hey brother, have to ask, what type of machine are you using?? I have a coil, it's been a pain, not sure if it's me or the gun, it's like it's trying to tattoo leather sometimes, always readjusting it, and recalibrating it.. Love some pointers as well... Thanks in advance

is purified water the same as distilled ?

Great video!!! Distilled water is the same we use on ironing board?? 😛

@ArtSomething

I dont know if thats the same water or not. I always just put any water in the iron lol i guess i have been using an iron incorrectly for a lot of years lol. SOrry I dont know the answer to that.

Question: does it have to be stencil Water o can be Also Rins Water?

When you clean it how do you stop it getting caught on the paper, and what does it mean if you try and clean it but it still has a lot of black stuck up in it, could it also mean im dipping ink wrong or too much.

@ArtSomething

4 жыл бұрын

Sometimes you can get A&D or Vaseline in your tube with the ink and that can be a pain to get out. SO every so often I will clean my needles prolly only once during a 4 hour tattoo. but its good to try to keep the needle and tube clean as you work. And if you have the machine at a nice angle the needles should not penetrate or really hit the towel to much. Just enough to let the needles push the ink or water out of the tube. Well I hope this makes sense and I thank you for watching and supporting the channel!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘

What gun?

Thank you for your service. I'm a fellow tattoo artist/veteran myself. May I ask what is the name and make of your machine? I would love to try one.
