Detailed blog post on cleaning fountain pens

Ear Syringe: Cleans converter and cartridge pens in 5 easy steps.

The ear syringe is particularly good for cleaning converter and cartridge fountain pens. To do this, a cup is filled with water, which is then sucked up with the ear syringe. The ear syringe is then placed on the grip section of the pen. The pen is now flushed with water until the writing instrument is clean. With regular cleaning, about 5 flushes should be sufficient. This process is best done at a sink. Alternatively, the ink water can also be flushed into a second, empty cup.

Syringe: Enables quick and thorough cleaning of pistons and converters

The syringe can be used to clean various elements of the fountain pen. It is particularly helpful for quick cleaning of pistons and converters. For this purpose, the blunt needle is inserted into the converter and flushed with water. This process is best performed at a sink. Alternatively, the ink water can also be rinsed into a second, empty cup.

Brass Sheets: Effectively and gently removes stubborn ink particles from the nib slit

The brass sheet can be used to remove dried ink particles etc. from the nib slit. This is particularly helpful for fountain pens that have been left unused for a long time and have not become clean by flushing with water. For this purpose, the brass sheet must be inserted between the nib tines. The gap is cleaned by moving the brass sheet back and forth.

Rubber Grip: Ensures a firm hold when removing nibs or opening dried-up fountain pens

The rubber grip is a universally helpful tool for a firmer grip on the fountain pen. For example, when removing a nib or screwing open a dried-up fountain pen, the grip section can be of great use. Attention! Some nibs are pushed on and others are screwed on.

Silicone Grease: Improves the mobility of converters and piston fillers through effective lubrication

Silicone grease can be used to grease older, stiff converters and pistons. For this purpose, a small amount of silicone grease is applied to a cotton swab, which is inserted into the piston or converter. For a piston filler, the nib unit must first be removed. The silicone grease can then be distributed inside the piston. Before new ink is drawn into the piston, it is advisable to twist the newly coated piston open and closed a few times to fully distribute the silicone grease. Depending on use, this process can be repeated every few months.

Microfiber Polishing Cloth: Versatile for effective polishing and cleaning of your writing instruments

A large microfiber polishing cloth is also included in the cleaning set. With this, cleaned writing instruments can be fully enclosed and polished. The large cloth also allows for divided use - for example, the four corners of the polishing cloth can be used with different cleaning pastes or polishing liquids without bleeding into other parts. In addition, thanks to its high density, the polishing cloth can be used on both sides for various purposes.
