Easy Wipe Compound is one of the most popular ink additives. Easy Wipe Compound is essentially a tack reducer which does not affect the colour or light fastness of an ink.
Unlike Burnt Plate Oil, Easy Wipe will not materially affect the body of the ink, but allows for great ease in wiping the plate with even the stiffest of inks.
Relief- Modify block printing inks that are very tacky and inclined to stick to the block, leaving an uneven impression.
