Hi Holly, thanks for another great tip. Will the acrylic stain work for oil based inks and inks like Caligo Safe Wash. I can imagine that the oil based won't have a problem with the acrylic transferring during the printing process but just wanted to check about the Safe Wash as well. Logically, it makes sense that the acrylic "stain" won't transfer but have you tested it please? Otherwise, I'll do so myself (just being lazy really and checking whether you've done it already!!).
