Pébéo Lino Inks - Slow Drying Gel, 80mL
Double Your Working Time. Perfect Your Prints.
Take your time and take greater control of your printmaking. Pébéo Slow-Drying Gel extends the working time of water-based lino inks from approximately 15 minutes to 30 minutes, giving you the freedom to refine your technique without feeling rushed.
Create smoother gradients, seamless colour blends, layered effects, and intricate details with greater precision. It’s the ideal medium for artists who want the extended working time and control often associated with oil-based inks, while maintaining the convenience of water-based lino inks.
More Time. More Control.
Doubles Your Working Time
Slow the drying time of water-based Pébéo lino inks from approximately 15 minutes to 30 minutes. The additional working time allows you to work more deliberately and refine your prints with confidence.
Perfect for Complex Techniques
Create smooth colour transitions, subtle gradients, layered effects, and detailed blends that can be difficult to achieve within the standard drying window.
Preserves Ink Performance
The gel extends your working time without sacrificing the qualities of your inks. Opacity, blendability, and colour richness are maintained, allowing you to focus on your technique rather than the clock.
Compatible With Every Pébéo Lino Ink Colour
Works Across the Entire Range
Use with traditional Series 1 colours as well as duochrome, metallic, and fluorescent Pébéo lino inks. There are no colour restrictions.
Simple to Mix
For best results, mix approximately 50% slow-drying gel with 50% ink directly on your inking surface using a palette knife before rolling.
Combine With Lightening Binder
For even greater creative control, the slow-drying gel can also be combined with Pébéo Lightening Binder to create custom colours with extended working time.
