If this is waterproof, how do I clean out my fountain pen? Won't it dry in the nib feed etc? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have not had a problem with this but do use my pen regularly and wash it out from time to time when refilling.It is used for sketching along with watercolour wash. If I was laying the pen up for any length of time I would wash out the pen and reservoir to be on the safe side. I also use this ink with a dip pen and reed/wood pens.

Pls can I confirm this will work in any fountain pen with a converter obviously?

Platinum Carbon Ink can be used in all fountain pens.

Do i need to buy something in order to fill my fountain pen cartridge with this ink?

I don't quite understand the question. I have both the ink and the prn. I love them both.

so based on some of your responses this is like india ink? not sepia?

This is a very black ink and very waterproof
