Experience the renowned quality of Charbonnel Aqua Wash Etching Inks, specially formulated to offer the performance of traditional oil-based inks with the convenience of water wash-up. Suitable for all forms of intaglio, relief printing, lithography, and monotype, these professional-grade inks provide rich colour, excellent coverage, and exceptional print quality.

With a viscosity comparable to Charbonnel’s classic solvent-based inks, Aqua Wash inks handle beautifully and soften slightly when mixed, allowing for smooth blending and easy colour modification. They dry at a similar rate to conventional inks, giving printmakers ample working time while maintaining the depth and character expected from traditional formulations.

Unlike standard etching inks, Aqua Wash inks require less dampening of paper for intaglio processes and can be cleaned up easily without harsh solvents. Available in a range of intermixable colours, they are ideal for artists seeking a more convenient and environmentally conscious approach to printmaking without compromising on professional results.

Suitable for:

• Intaglio and etching
• Relief and block printing
• Lithography
• Monotype printing
• Colour mixing and custom shades

Perfect for studios, workshops, and home printmakers alike, Charbonnel Aqua Wash Etching Inks combine traditional quality with modern convenience.
