Does Pearl Ex "get old"?? I'm in the midst of a huge wedding project & today, I cannot get the Pearl Ex to flow. I've mixed it per the recipe (4 parts Pearl Ex, 4 parts distilled water, to 1 part gum Arabic) & it just will not flow. I've made 3 different batches. Usually, when I have this happen, if I add about 10 drops of distilled water, the ink flows nicely. However, I've added a huge amount of water (about 5 drops at a time) & still it will not flow. I've added more Pearl Ex and more gum Arabic & nothing changes. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've been at this 1 1/2 hours & I am extremely frustrated! My friend, Google, doesn't have any suggestions.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
