Hanco offers a range of bespoke modifiers that can be used across the ink ranges, these modifiers can be used with other traditional ink formulations outside the Hanco ranges.
Hanco Clearset Compound is a gelled linseed oil. It is used to soften and reduce the tack of an ink. Some people prefer to use this instead of standard oil medium because it is easier to handle.
