That's encouraging! Thanks for letting us know the results of your experiment. I guess the lesson here is to let the ink soak in a bit after the initial re-inking, and not to use too much.

I suppose re-inking is the next logical step in typewriter madness. I have a Corona 3 with the little ribbon spools that I will need to rewind by hand. If the ribbon hadn't been so beat up at the antique mall a re-ink may have been called for.

I wonder if vintage Quink would work on a ribbon? Perhaps I will try a sample on a dead one and see what happens.
