| 1st: Clean the inkstone | Push the inkstone too hard or rub it too fast will cause bubbles, which we don't want. | don't add too much or you will soak the inkstone | Pack with oil surface paper, so that it has no contact with air & water vapour. |
| 2nd: add water into the dish | Push the inkstone with a bit force, so that it is easier to get the ink. | Too thick ink will detain the brush. Too light ink will exudate, no style will shown by this kind of ink. | Pack in a plastic bag. |
| 3rd: Rub the inkstone around the dish until the ink is suitable. | Turning around so that we have even ink tone. | Not to use can-ink unless you are in a hurry since its smoke & glue in the ink are not even. | Store it in vacuum. |
