Brutus Monroe Ink Test Lab - Part 3: Clay, Foil, Tile, and Wood

Brutus Monroe Ink Test Lab - Part 3: Clay, Foil, Tile, and Wood

I wanted to test the Brutus Monroe Chalk Inks on various surfaces to see if the ink would stay on clay, foil, tile, and wood.  I also did the same tests on a variety of other inks in my Brutus Monroe Ink Test Lab Part 3.

So for these tests I did a video to show how they all compered against each other.  Brutus Monroe is offering an amazing deal for all Chalk Ink Pads plus Chalk Ink Re-inkers for the next couple months - a 20% off your ink purchase

Plus here is the best part, you have a chance to win a set in mini chalk inks for just subscribing to my YouTube Channel, full details are on my channel, but there will be 4 winners, each receiving one set of 4 mini chalk inks!!  Amazing!!! Here is my video.

The inks I tested were Brutus Monroe Chalk ink in Wagon, Ranger Distress ink in Fired Brick, StazOn in Pumpkin, Dare 2B Artzy in Red, Studio G Chalks in Red, Colorbox Fluid Chalk ink in Tangerine, Prima Quick Dry fluid chalk ink in Brick Wall, and Prima Resist Chalk Edger in Rose Bud.  I kept all the color as close as possible in the range of red and oranges.

Test 1 - Air Dry Clay

I tested each of the 8 inks on a Makin's Clay rolled of sheet of white clay and let it air dry for about 2 hours.  I tested if it smeared when it was first stamped and how well it heat set.  For results please see the video.

Test 2 - Rinea Foil Paper

I tested each of the 8 inks on a sheet of Rinea foil in silver.  I tested if it smeared when it was first stamped and how well it heat set.  For results please see the video.

Test 3 - Tile

I tested each of the 8 inks on a section of white tile.  I tested if it smeared when it was first stamped, how well it heat set, and if it bled when water was sprayed on it.  For results please see the video.

Test 4 - Wood

I tested each of the 8 inks on a section of untreated sanded pine wood.  I tested if it smeared when it was first stamped and if it bled when water was sprayed on it.  For results please see the video.

I will say that the Brutus Monroe inks were amazing for all these tests.  I loved that they held up too different kinds of surfaces and are holding up tho the name of an all purpose ink!!  Amazing inks!!
