When to choose it
Choose this tube for a longer black relief run when you prefer the working feel of an oil-based ink. It contains 150 ml, twice the size of one tube in the six-color starter set. Proof the block and paper first so you can estimate ink use for your actual image.
Cranfield specifies liquid soap and cold water for cleaning the ink from tools. The formulation is intended for relief printing. Compare a fabric-labeled ink for a garment that will be washed, or the six-tube set if you need process colors and extender.

Questions about this product
Will the same cleanup work as for Speedball's water-soluble paper ink?
Use the Cranfield directions. The maker specifies working in liquid soap before rinsing with cold water.
How can I estimate whether 150 ml is enough?
Print a small trial using the final block and paper. Coverage and ink left on the plate affect how much the edition uses.
Can I add the Safe Wash extender separately?
Cranfield lists its transparent extender for adjusting color strength. Compare the set if you also want other colors.
