Complete guide: Ring cap with sponge Black
The black sponge ring cap is a single-use accessory that replaces classic ink caps placed on the work surface. It is worn directly on the finger, like a ring, and has a compartment with an absorbent sponge that holds the ink or pigment, providing quick access to the material without interrupting your work. It is designed for artists working in microblading, micropigmentation (PMU), and microneedling who prefer to have the ink 'at hand' rather than on the table.
How to use
- Wash and disinfect your hands, then put on your gloves according to your usual working protocol.
- Open the individual packaging of the cap just before the session to maintain product hygiene.
- Put the ring on your preferred finger — usually the index or middle finger of the hand that does not hold the tool — and check that it sits securely without restricting your movement.
- Pour a moderate amount of ink or pigment directly onto the sponge; there is no need to saturate it completely from the start.
- Soak the needle or tool directly from the sponge whenever needed, without stopping to go back to a separate work surface.
- If the sponge dries out during the session, add additional ink gradually, in small amounts.
- At the end, discard the cap together with the other single-use consumables, following the clinic's protocol for waste from tattoo/PMU sessions.
- Do not keep it for later reuse — it is designed strictly for a single client.
Tips from us
- Test the stability of the ring on your finger before starting actual work, so it does not slip during the session.
- Add the ink or pigment gradually, in small amounts, especially if working with denser formulas — this prevents the sponge from drying out in the middle of the procedure.
- Keep a few spare pieces on hand for long sessions or multiple clients in the same day.
- Store unopened caps in a clean, dry place, away from moisture, until use.
- Use it together with other single-use protective barriers in the clinic (gloves, films, covers) for a complete hygiene protocol.
Warning: This is a single-use product: do not disinfect or reuse it on another client. After each session, discard it together with the rest of the used consumables, following the clinic's rules regarding waste from tattoo/PMU procedures. Before opening, check that the individual packaging is intact; if it appears damaged, use another piece.
