I finally decided to try a shimmering ink, Colorverse Ham #65 glistening. I inked up my pilot metropolitan with stub nib figuring it would be better than my medium, fine, or extra fine nibs(don't have many choices). After a few hours I tried to write with the pen and when I could get ink on paper I couldn't get even one letter wrote without it stopping on me. I shaked the bottle for a good 10 or 15 minutes before filling the converter with a pipette. Also noticed quite a bit of crud building up on the underside and top of the nib which has never been a problem.

Any tips or advice on what I can do to maybe get better results or anyone that has had problems with metropolitans and shimmering ink. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Matt
