I use to use oil based printing ink as always thought they gave the best print. However I must say the ink is extreme hard to remove thoroughly from rollers and the Lino so thought I would give Caligo safe wash a go. I have to say I wish I had swopped sooner as the ink prints really well and is so much easier to clean up.
