Received versafine instant dry pigment today, but was disappointed with the embossed results. are the newer clair pads better with embossing powders?

Versafine Clair Nocturne is a stepped up, more wonderful iteration of Versafine Onyx Black (I will stick with these color comparisons for this answer.). Clair Nocturne is just a tad more intensely black than regular Versafine Onyx. It stamps equally fine lines, doesn’t smear, doesn’t stain photopolymer stamps and has the added unique quality that it can be heat embossed for an extended time after stamping. Don’t ask me how this Clair ink can do all those things, it’s near magic! Highly recommend the Versafine Clair Nocturne, and it’s a good idea to pick up a reinker at the same time because they can be difficult to find.

Is this ink waterproof? Using it on suede leather as a tag on a beanie hat. I want to make sure that the ink doesn't run if rained on or washed.

Label says “Perfect for using watercolors to color stamped images.”

Just opened up the versafine Clair in 2 different colors and noticed the ink pad was not inked all the way to the bottom of the pad. Is this normal?

I store my ink pads upside down so the ink is always at the top when you use it. I just labeled the bottom with the color. I didn’t really notice that the ink wasn’t all the way through when I first bought them. I have had mine for at least 2 years and the colors are still vibrant.

Can it be used on wood? plywood for example?

Yes it can but if the wood is rough you might have trouble
