Ink Review: Diamine Peach Haze

[Chrissy]

Today I'm reviewing Diamine Peach Haze ink.

Diamine Peach Haze is a saturated orange dye based ink with a slight pinkness about it. It’s a well-named peach or apricot colour and is from Diamine Inks standard range.

Peach Haze is more orange than Diamine Coral, Noodler’s Dragon’s Napalm and P.I. Fuyu gaki, but more pink than Diamond Orange, Noodler’s Operation Overlord Orange and P.I. Yu yake inks.

I found it flowed well in the pens I used it with, although it felt slightly dryer than Coral. Lubrication was reasonable, but I would have liked more. No shading or sheen noticed.

• Flow Rate: Good. Felt slightly dry in the pen & paper combinations I used.
• Lubrication: Not bad - I would have preferred more.
• Nib Dry-out: Not noticed.
• Start-up: Immediate.
• Saturation: Saturated ink
• Shading Potential: No shading seen.
• Sheen: None seen.
• Show-Through:
  
  • Hobonichi Techo
  • Rhodia Clic Bloc
  • Silvine Notebook
  • Field Notes
  • Tomoe River 52gsm
  • Generic 80gsm lined pads
• Spread / Feathering / Woolly Line: Not seen, even on Field Notes.
• Nib Creep / “Crud”: Not seen, even after over 1 week in the pen
• Staining (pen): Not seen after several days in the pen - easy clean-up with water.
• Staining (hands): Easy clean-up with bar soap.
• Clogging: Not seen. Seems unlikely.
• Water resistance: Not sold as waterproof and has no water resistance.
• Availability: Available from Diamine Inks web-site and many other outlets.

Did you have any staining issues?

It stained my converter in a dark pen. Wondering if anyone else has seen this.

I used three converters. One Parker and two Lamy. It didn't stain any of them. It's only been in these converters for about a week though. Not long term. I cleaned them all out in soapy water then rinsed them out with plain water.

(Just a helpful hint, when quoting a post that has big images on it, what I tend to do is to delete the images as they aren't needed again on the very next post and take up a lot of room on the page. It's just a case of clicking on an image and deleting it on my mac but it may be different for you. )

I’m not in a mac. I’m on a phone. I didn’t realize it quoted images. Thanks.

Yes it does. It duplicates everything. Do you have an Edit Post button to delete them? Or does that not appear on the mobile version?
