Thank you all so much for your help and suggestions. I want to apologize for singling out a single company. It turns out, upon further examination, that we have inks from at least three different companies. TBS is actually the least problematic of the whole bunch. I won't mention who makes the others.

Orange is very thick, so is green. I'm being a bit lazy here, but I was wondering if anyone else is going this? Do you use water, alcohol or H2O2? Any direction would be helpful.
