Gone ... all dried up and no re-inkers to be found.
Does anyone recall Nick Bantock inks -- beautiful dye stamping inks -- the Nick Bantock brown separated into such lovely colors -- I mean it started great, but it a bit of water hit it, the ink separated and was really very pretty!
I'm going through some inks -- after two moves to different extreme climates -- KCMO, to Pensacola, Florida - now in Albuquerque, New Mexico -- 3 packing up so they haven't been used in a while .... so many are dried up.
Sigh ... A Nick Banktock VanDyke brown re-inker -- anywhere?? anyone???
Do you have some now gone favorites?

Try Ranger Essentials Ink Refresher or put a few drops of glycerin in a spray bottle with distilled water and spritzed it.

I don't use dye inks, but recall the popularity of the Nick Bantock Van Dyke Brown & Ranger/Jenni Bowlin inks.

Try Ranger Essentials Ink Refresher This works so well, definitely try it! And I feel you, that brown was perfection. I wish I still had it.

Thanks for the recommendation about the Ranger product. I've ordered some. I don't know how it will work on the Nick Bantock -- we will see -- and I have some other inks for which it might be helpful.

There appear to be some Nick Bantock inks on Etsy and eBay. I'm not sure if there are refills for sale, but it might be worth a look.
