Digital BW, The Print

Greg sent me the Glop he had (WJ 824 from Image Specialists, I believe).
The Glop Greg has looks like light beer and smells just like the newer MIS
inks.

I had previously noted that MIS does not sell its new base, and the old base
bronzes very badly when used on gloss paper.

Following up on Walter's suggestions, below, I have now mixed some light
carbon ink using the Glop Greg sent to me.  It seems to print just like the
light carbon from MIS.  So far, there seem to be no problems.  So, it might
make a good base for those who want to dilute MIS inks where MIS does not
sell the dilution you're looking for (like the 50% MIS Light Cyan I
currently have in my 7500).

For background, see below.
