Re: [Digital BW] Spotting finished prints

2002-02-16 by Michael Kravit

Frank,

Another great method is is to keep a small bit of ink in the little jars
that contact lenses come in. I get these from the place I but contacts from.
I the pour off a bit of ink from the larger jars. Using a 000 or 00 spotting
brush I can spot with inks that match the print exactly.

Mike
