Fine-Tune Ink Viscosity with Gamblin Burnt Plate Oils
Gamblin Burnt Plate Oils are essential tools for printmakers looking to adjust the flow and handling of their inks. Made from high-quality linseed oil, these low-viscosity mediums help reduce ink thickness without compromising print quality—when used sparingly.
There are two options to suit different printing needs: Burnt Plate Oil #000 has less tack and works best for modifying Gamblin Relief Inks, while Burnt Plate Oil #2 has a higher tack and is used as the primary binder in Gamblin Etching Inks. Both oils allow for precise control over ink consistency, helping you maintain sharp, detailed prints.
