Hi all,
For anyone who knows the vintage a88, one of the coolest things about it is the nib. The section unscrews , allowing you to easily lubricate the piston...but this also makes you have to worry about leaking in the section threads. I have taken my 88's section off twice, and i get some small lines on ink on my hands--from the ink leaking very minorly around the 0-ring. There is plenty of silicone grease. But some articles seem to imply that the section should be shellaced on...is this necessary? Can I solve the problem another way?
