Review: Great value, easy to use, brilliant white. - Good product! Great value. It's practically solid, so I needed to water it down. Really bright white ink that stands out. I use it for adding white accents to watercolor.
Review: New Favorite - The best thing about this white ink is its opacity. Great coverage that you won’t be able to see through. You do need to mix or add water as it is not fluid. This allows you to control the consistency. It has not dried or got crusty over time as other brands I’ve used. I will be keeping this on my art table always.

## Features

- [WHITE INK] ZIG White ink is water-based pigment and highly opaque. Ideal for highlights or corrections, the white ink covers other markings well, and shows up distinctly on dark surfaces. Easy to use with a brush or dip pen.
- [HIGH QUALITY] Since its founding in 1902, Kuretake has cultivated its ink-making technology. This product is based on this technology as well as decades of experience, improving and maintaining quality. As Kuretake white ink is made using fine pigments, it dries quickly, is permanent, water-resistant, and does not clog. These features make it ideal for a variety of techniques.
- [USABILITY] This ink was developed by incorporating the thoughts and techniques of professional Japanese cartoonists with the experience of Kuretake ink making. It works great for drawing lines, adding highlights to your illustration or manga, calligraphy, lettering, outlining, and other crafts. It can also be used as correction fluid to white out mistakes.
- [STORAGE] The rich, white opaque color is formulated to solidify when not in use and return quickly to liquid form upon stirring. Water may be added to reach desired consistency. Replace cap firmly when not in use, store at room temperature, and avoid direct sunlight. Please store properly to prevent drying, and clean your nib bens and brushes after each use.
- [CERTIFICATION] Xylene-free, conforms to ASTM D 4236, ACMI-certified for safety, registered AP mark for sale in the United States. MADE IN JAPAN.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Covers mistakes beautifully and makes a great highlight as well. Great value for the price!
*by M***O on July 4, 2021*

This is a fabulous product!! I use it a lot while drawing, painting, etc. This is like they emptied out a whiteout bottle in a jar. And you can just dip something tiny in it to correct a mistake,. And you don't see through it at all! I was drawing a really pretty picture and I messed it up with permanent ink and I was disappointed and I thought I had to throw it away and start over. This stuff came to the rescue and covered it all up and then I just drew on top of it and no one would ever know but you! You can also use it as a highlight too!
