Intenze Color Mixing Solution 360 ml

It is a specially formulated dispersion medium (according to the description, based on witch hazel, glycerin, and distilled water) that contains the dispersion agents and stabilizers found in Intenze inks. Unlike plain water, it keeps the pigment uniformly distributed and the dilution stable, so the color remains homogeneous and predictable. It contains no pigment, so it only modifies intensity and viscosity, not the shade.

For economy and convenience. According to the description, the price per ml for 360 ml is about 25-35% lower than for 120 ml, and the large format reduces order frequency. It makes sense for studios with multiple color artists or for an artist who uses a lot. If you dilute rarely, the small bottle might be the better choice to avoid exceeding the shelf life.

Yes. According to the manufacturer's description, it is exactly the same formula; only the quantity, bottle, and price per ml differ. There is no difference in composition or performance between the formats.

It depends on how much you dilute. The description estimates a few months for an active studio and longer for an individual artist. The shelf life after opening is, according to the description, 12-18 months. Keep it sealed, at room temperature and away from sunlight, and dispense it into small sterile bottles if you work in a team.

According to the description, it is formulated for Intenze inks, with which it shares identical dispersion agents and stabilizers — hence the compatibility and consistent performance. It can also be used to reduce the viscosity of a dense color like Snow White Opaque; the description mentions a ratio of approximately 8:1 or 10:1 (ink:solution) to improve flow. For large dilutions, add gradually and test.

Sterilize the small transfer bottles, gently shake the 360 ml bottle, pour the desired amount without direct contact with the bottle mouth, and label with date and batch. Each artist uses their own working bottle and never returns solution to the large bottle.
