Magnesium Carbonate — Magnesium Carbonate is traditionally used to stiffen inks and reduce their gloss level. It works well with both Gamblin Etching Inks and Gamblin Artist's Colors Relief Inks. Once combined, it becomes transparent and will not alter the color of the ink. Only a small amount is needed to increase body, so add it sparingly and mix well.

Tack Reducer — Tack Reducer is a gel made from a very light drying oil. Because it is transparent, it does not alter the color intensity of the ink. Add it in small amounts to efficiently reduce tack.
