What can you use instead of stencil magic?
One of the best things that you can use is called Dettol Soap which is an antiseptic grade soap, much like Green Soap but it quite a bit more effective than the latter and it keeps the stencil on there nice and clean throughout the tattoo. Some people cut their solution with a little bit of distilled water, but a lot of artists just use it straight. Not cutting the solution can sometimes make the residual stencil hard to wipe off entirely even after the tattoo is done, so you may want to use a mixed solution until you get the feel for it. Other than Dettol, you can use green soap, and even just regular distilled water to apply the stencil, but it is important to note that if you just use distilled water that the stencil will wipe away rather easily, so you must take care when tattooing.
What is the best way to wipe off excess ink while tattooing without wiping off the stencil?
Kitchen MagicianWell, I reckon it would depend on what type of stencil transfer you were using......And what type of skin cleanser you are using, but I dont reveal this type of information to just anyone as all must pay their dues in some respect. These are basics that any tattoo apprentice would be taught in the very beginning.........So check with the persons who sold you the starter kit...WHAT AN IDIOT AND DUMB ANSWER
What is the best stencil solution for applying stencil to the skin green soap stencil pro or speed stick?
The industry standard for applying stencils is Tincture of Green Soap. Stencil Pro works well, though it needs a few minutes to dry thoroughly after application of the stencil from my experience. The best advice is to use petroleum jelly or A&D ointment only in the precise areas you are tattooing. In other words, don't cover the entire stencil with either before you begin the tattoo. Only use it and wipe it on as you move along. That will preserve stencils much longer. Also, only use water to gently wipe away excessive ink during the lining process. Finally, yes it works, but throw the speed stick away or only use it to keep your underarms tolerable. Green Soap works MUCH better. I do indeed agree with the above answer, but a better solution than green soap is what is known as Detoll soap. It works much better than green soap for keeping the stencil on the skin no matter how much you have to dab and or wipe the excess ink away, but this is also sometimes a problem because depending on how strong the solution is, because a good deal of the stencil may still be there after you are done with the tattoo. In any event though, for this solution, you will mix 1 equal part of Detoll soap with 7 equal parts distilled water and the end result should have the solution an amber color and it will smell slightly like Pinesol. Speed stick is not advisable since most of them carry trace amounts of aluminum in them, and therefore is bad to be pushing in the skin.
What is better to use green soap or deoderant?
Of the two...green soap. But I use neither for stencil purposes, as I'm sure that's what you are asking this for. Instead, it is better to use a stencil solution. A good solution will keep the stencil on the skin for the duration of the whole tattoo, even if you are constantly wiping (which really you should dab the puddle rather than wipe). Find and buy an antiseptic disenfectant called Dettoll, it is sold in most drug stores and pharmacies, and mix 1 part of Dettol to 7 parts equal distilled water. Voila! Great and easy solution.
