    Default Dominant Industry Milky Way Blue and Diamine Polar Glow

    The two inks are quite similar. Tough to tell the difference.

    Nice one It seems Milky Way is slightly lighter. The shading seems more extreme in Polar Glow

    Thanks, Bob! Both of these shade beautifully. They're probably too blue for me, but of the two, I like Polar Blue better. Love the quote!

    Diamine Polar Glow originally came from the Blue Inkvent calendar then became one of the Blue Edition inks that followed it. It has the added benefit of having one of those 50ml bottles with little feet.

    It's also similar to two exclusive editions: A Night in Jodhpur and Jalur Gemilang.

    Thanks for expressing what I was having trouble figuring out - shading, sheen ... ?

    Yes, I was looking for something lighter and not as purple as Diamine Iridescink Philip to use in the M800.

    Do you think Dominant Industry Lapis lazuli would be even closer to Polar glow?
