Dear Readers and Members, The forum has been down for over 6 months because the domain name (www.stamforum.com) lapsed and it is no longer available to re purchase. Although this forum is now defunct (it has morphed into several whatsapp groups), I have had many requests to put it back online because it contains so much information (over 1,800 posts and thousands of comments in the discussions, on a wide range of topics related to STa"M). I have therefore put the forum back online at blogger, so the address is www.stamforum.blogspot.com. The forum lasted for a decade...not a bad effort! It was pretty popular back in the days before whatsapp and managed to receive over a million hits in it's short life. It was one of the only organised forums in the STa"M world and definitely the largest in it's heyday. I would like to thank all those who cobtributed over the years, particularly the early members who helped build it up. Thanking you all, Eli
I am unsure as to the answer to your question however I used your ink (Dyo Lonetzach) to write a kesubah on shiny paper and with handling parts of the ink peeled off almost like it was a rubber coating on the paper.Is this because of the paper or is this normal for the ink? The paper was very shiny.
ReplyDelete1. Shiny paper has a coating on it to make it shiny. Some coatings behave like an oily coatings - nothing can stick to an oily coating, unless the ink soaks into the paper.
ReplyDelete2. Dio lanetzach dries in stages. After initial drying, the adhesion of the (dry) ink to the paper is still not cured. So, it can peel off. It takes a few days of drying to develop full-strength adhesion. Before making strength experiments on the ink I wait 3 weeks for complete drying and curing.
Ok, Thanks for explaining
