When to choose it
Choose this tube if a print edition uses the same black throughout, such as a series of one-color cards. The nominal five-fluid-ounce size gives more black than the small tube in a multicolor set. Proof the image and paper before estimating how much of the tube the run will use.
Speedball lists this ink for paper block printing with soap-and-water cleanup. Its separate fabric ink is the one to compare for a textile you plan to wash. If you need a black key block plus several accent colors, compare the four-color set.
