Thanks. To me, using conventional equipment with India ink presents obvious problems; i.e., throwing the ink off the polishing device.
I wonder if it would work with something like a rotary cup buff used at _very_ low speed, perhaps using a good bit of pressure as a substitute for speed...
It's feasible if you did it inside of a blasting cabinet. I'm thinking that if you totally submerged a loose cotton wheel in this stuff, to the point that it was sloppy wet, you could keep an adequate amount of ink particles in contact with the surface by periodically adding more pressure and squeezing more out of the buff as if you were wringing out a wet mop. (The wringing effect would continue to get easier as you continued to dilute the ink with distilled water.)
