Ink Review #2238: Dominant Industry Romania Red
/Today’s ink is Dominant Industry Romania Red. Thanks to Yoseka Stationery for sending this ink over for review!
*For my swab cards I use a Col-o-ring by Skylab Letterpress, a medium Pilot Ishime and a Mabie Todd Swan.
Swabs:
In large swabs on Tomoe River paper the ink has some brown sheen.
Writing samples:
Let's take a look at how the ink behaves on fountain pen friendly papers: Rhodia, Tomoe River, and Leuchtturm.
*For my writing samples I use:
Vintage Mabie Todd Swan (flex nib)
Taroko Enigma notebooks (68gsm TR)
Dry time: 40 seconds
Water resistance: Low
Feathering: None
Show through: Medium
Bleeding: None
Other properties: low shading, medium brown sheen, and no shimmer.
On 20 lb copy paper the ink had just a little bit of feathering and a few dots of bleeding.
Comparison Swabs:
Romania Red is just a little bit lighter than Robert Oster Sedona Red. Click here to see the red inks together.
Longer Writing:
I used a TWSBI Eco Blossom Red with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink had an average flow.
Overall, this is a nice Christmas red color, and well behaved. This ink would be great for Christmas and holiday cards.
