I couldn't find a needle in my haystack, but I did find a thinnish paperclip, which I dipped in the undiluted bottle of Photoflo and then placed into a Lamy ink cartridge that was half-full of Waterman Havana Brown (Absolute Brown now) ink. OK, I did as you suggested and picked up a bottle of Photoflo ($8.99 for 16 fl. I reckon that you'll not invoke an event horizon by doing so. Perhaps individual Members and/or businesses offering ink samples could offer small volumes of P-F. I believe such a method may be quite useful to those using the Platinum mixing inks. I encourage Member/s to undertake the task of going through this or some other repeatable method and post results with documentation, written samples, wet tests, smear/dry times, charts, graphs, etc. Ink-up the target pen, and see how she goes.Go a bit beyond the desired level of wetness, then draw 1 ml of fresh gpi and mix to total in the mixing bottle.If few drops of the P-F 0.5% Solution are required, then it may be advisable to go again using a 0.2% Solution.If all of the 1 ml of the P-F 0.5% Solution is used without achieving desired results, then it may be necessary to go again using a 1% Solution.Label the sample with the number of drops added, and retain that sample.Return ink from pen to the mixing bottle as you progress. Flush pen repeatedly with each new mix before running sample of about 8x8 cm.Run a sample through the pen onto the intended paper after each dosing of say 5 drops are added.From the syringe, add drops of the P-F 0.5% Solution to the gpi, and stir.of the guinea pig ink place that in empty 50 ml bottle. Now comes the tedium, so take notes - at least a tally stick. Stow the bottle 'P-F 5%' safely away from children.Draw 5 ml of the 5% place that in empty 50 ml bottle.Stow P-F bottle safely away from children.Add water to that bottle - bringing volume to about 50 ml.Draw 2.5 ml of P-F place that in empty 50 ml bottle.The relative wetness to the 'target' pen should be known. Pen: Either c/c or Pelikan M-series or similar - with removable nib, piston fill and large ink capacity.Kodak Photo-Flo 200 or Ilford 'Ilfotol'.

I do not intend to derail or shanghai this Thread, so I shall be brief and forego the suggestions for wardrobe & accessories. What amt of photoflow would you add to the ink? Check well before putting any mixture in any of your pens, that this still keeps its consistency. As a remainder, to be on the safe side it is better to play around with inks in a dedicated container. The amount of soap you need is very very tiny. So if you have a pen which doesn't work really well with an ink because it feels too dry, I would recommend this trick in order to adjust the flow to your liking. In addition, because it flows so well, now the amount of ink that goes onto the page is higher, and hence it looks like if you were writing with a more saturated ink. After trying on my Moleskine I saw that, although the wetness and drying time had increased, the final effect was still good for the purpose. That ink now had become a joy to write with. The results couldn't have been more surprising. Following some posts I read about on the forum, I decided to add just a tiny amount of dish soap to the remaining ink in my bottle. I thought it would be nice if one could make that ink a bit smoother and free flowing without worsening much the other good properties it possesses. For instance, I use it regularly for my Moleskine pocket journal which can hardly tolerate any other ink. I like this ink because it works so well with some of my pens and papers. Yesterday night i was writing with a pen filled with Lamy Blue-Black, the 'driest' ink I own. Although their marketing strategy is well thought, still they seem to miss the most important point. We are all used to watch those boring commercials about the wonders and superpower of dish soap.
