Speedball 16-Ounce Pen Cleaner

The liquid has a faint smell. It works well and i believe it lubricates the fountain pen too. It however couldn't get rid of some stains. I had to use a brush to achieve the end result. Overall it's a great product for the price.

Very good to thoroughly clean the inside and nib of my fountain pens. I have a very nice collection and I’m not gonna trust my fountain pens just any cleaner. I’ve used the stuff for years to help cleanmy fountain pens.

I am new to calligraphy and am just learning the ins and outs of liquid ink and dip pens so I don’t have a ton of experience but this is such an awesome product. I can not say enough good things about it. If you need a way to get stuck on waterproof ink off or your mind/pens this is definitely the product to use. Makes my life so much easier

I have a fairly large fountain pen collection. I love writing with all of them and regularly change pens and inks. The challenge is always how to clean them. I use a water flush to start and that usually does the trick. If the ink has been sitting a while or is a tenacious color I have a small ultrasonic tank. But sometimes even that will not work. So I ordered a bottle of this product. There are three main benefits to using this pen cleaning solution: 1. It works! I soak the nib & reservoir for 20-30 minutes, flush, then repeat. This works every time. I usually use a small glass (shot glass) for this. I haven't even needed to put it in the ultrasonic cleaner yet, that's how good it is. The ink gets removed and the metal looks wonderful. 2. The product is nontoxic! That's a great benefit as I'm not worrying about retaining the fluid, worrying about pets or kids getting into it, etc. The fluid is colorless and odorless. 3. A little goes a long way. I've cleaned about a dozen nibs and have used maybe 10% of the bottle. I plan to order another bottle when this one runs out. Overall a great value and a great product!

Probably cheapest fountain pen cleaner out there that does the job. I use water resistant ink in my fountain pen and it had no trouble removing the ink without damaging the plastic body.

If you write with India ink you can use water to clean your nibs but this cleaner does it more efficiently and quickly. If you use India ink frequently this container of cleaner is worth the price. When I purchased this bottle it was $22.99. A 2 oz bottle of the same cleaner at a major craft store is currently $4.49. No craft store I've found sells pen cleaner in this size bottle.
