Dye ink dries very quickly but most of it is not very moisture resistant. Pinkment inks, once dry, are considered almost waterproof but take a very long time to dry and will smudge. Each has its advantages; each has its disadvantages. I tend to use pigment because I can get little Cat's Eyes that don't take up much room and I can travel with lots of colors in my backpack. But I do also take along tissues or paper towels to try to blot as much excess ink as possible before closing a log book. I don't use my pigment ink on a page that is facing someone else's stamp image. Hope this helps a bit.Memlili

use dye-based ink pads rather than pigment-based? There were dye-based ink
pads on sale for a really good price at Roberts this weekend, but I'm not
sure if the quality will be very different.
