These are our 1st generation Soap (V1). All BRAND NEW but have cosmetic imperfections such as marks or discolouration. (See photos for examples). The actual functionality of the ink stirrer is unaffected.

The difference between the V1 and V3 is the power of the motor:

V1: spinning speed is 600rpm-900rpm. If you need to mix powder ink like Pearl Ex, V1 is perfect. If you need to mix thicker ink like Dr. Ph. Martin's Bleed Proof White, V3 is better.

V3: spinning speed 900rpm-3600rpm. Perfect for mixing all kinds of ink. (Soap V3 available here )

We have a very limited quantity of Soap (V1) left.

Instructions

Insert 2 x AAA batteries into the battery compartment.
Place ONLY ONE stir bar within the ink inside the jar. The minimum ink level needs to fully cover the stir bar.
Place jar on top of the ink stirrer. Slide on the thumbwheel located on the side of the Soap slowly to set the desired speed of spinning.

Tips

The big stir bar generates stronger stirring action, good for stirring thick ink, like acrylic ink or mixing metallic powdered ink, the small stir bar generates smoother action for stirring light ink.
The stir bar jumping inside the jar instead of spinning quietly in the middle indicates the speed is too fast. Turn the thumbwheel to the left to slow down the spinning speed, or turn it off and on again.

Caution

This is not a real soap bar, do not put it underwater!
Contains small parts. Choking hazard.
