So, when the exterior gets dirty with fingerprints, dirt, or grime, simply wipe it down with a soft cloth. For tougher dirt, use water and gentle soap if necessary, but harsh cleaners are out of the question.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To clean the interior of a fountain pen, gently run the tip and cartridge under cold water\u2013but avoid flushing the pen&#8217;s body under water. Thereafter, dry the nib and the feeder with a clean cloth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use The Right Ink<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/crrLIaAyH2IgTCb5WzvYBMTi3JPf2EQRAWc3D6l-cdsLfdoGzTTilz9EVXBMPGNCstbhoIziYSxrvNJZodr-8RCRj1gzX3a6w0intUZqy5CdXW3YAdMLS_P03LslZ6QFnAKqdOxJRjDif11K7HI.jpeg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When refilling your pen, try using ink specifically made for fountain pens, and if you can buy the ink from the same brand, even better! In fact, buying refills from Montblanc and Cartier, for example, is actually quite affordable. Using poor or expired ink can clog up your pen because of its high-solid content.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ALSO SEE: <a href=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/10-pensive-facts-about-montblanc-pens\/\">10 PENSIVE FACTS ABOUT MONTBLANC PENS<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make Use of Your Fountain Pen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/mv6jZ5bq18J1lptdI5T_9atmlw6wWMJWV3E_hPG_4x5KTZj21FmSfzfQFjmlFjgw19ohLXVAi-XM8K-UD048Nj71DInGKlvqGWPtF2UiSZy0RBzCtN6GMn1xDVgI0TxCwSfosUjxra271lcssBg.jpeg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The more you use your fountain pen, the more it becomes accustomed to your hand and writing style.

In fact, a luxury pen glides smoothly across the paper, so there&#8217;s no need to apply extra pressure anyway.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you use your pen frequently, remember to replace the nib timeously so that it doesn\u2019t damage the rest of your pen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Changing Ink<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/oBBLtTVZUvnm4F_lr7T7jbBOVUOpqurTNvDZFTLRS3yAQ54PRjb6VCbZleSHkfCp84MdwM5x0sSHSp_ekEMfCmENzEkFSzAx6SKNYmnQUGNSBAbCr8qj4tQWOO9V83Wp0ANCt5OBrw_lTgwKmtA.jpeg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Mixing ink from different brands or mixing different colours can react negatively with each other which can also lead to clogging your pen.
