I'm sure I could get it locally if I tried but with parking in the city costing £5 it was cheaper to order from Amazon although now I don't want it yesterday, its actually cheaper to buy it on ebay.

The shipping cost is insane for ordering one piece only it actually trippled the price with cod to Germany...
Ive used the Bishop today for lining it went ok for a first try actually it was way easier with the bishop compared to a swiss... I already love the machine very silent consistent action and the needle clip did the job perfectly I want another one for sure...
You ask for it and i tell you !Quote:

Anyways this stuff is great as far as I can tell without any comparison to other products. But I can definitely tell that the Bishop is even more silent than it was before after I applied some of this stuff.
The Bishop is the best thing Ive bought in years its just amazing how this machine works... Im still trying to make it work for me as a liner but all the lines I try to pull of with it turn out a lot thinner than usual, Ive tried a 5 round 0,30(10) liner, a 5 round 0,35(12) liner, a 7 round 0,35(12) liner and a 5 round 0,35(12) shader all longtaper needles so far. I had the best results with the 7 round at 9.9 volts. I went up to 10.5 with the round shader. Maybe I will switch to a larger grouping generally.
Thanks for the heads up, i'll look into it!Quote:

I used to play paint ball for years on high end guns-there lubes are some of the best around for plastics ,rubbers metals etc.Quote:

look at the needle grouping and then the line, standard groupings needle tips are actully very thin if you loop it, we are just used to a coil machine making a bigger line as the needle tends to jig about in the skin causing a fatter line.
Try a bullet tip liner with the bishop/neo tat and you will get a bigger line as the taper is not as thin and sharp,so the tip is just a bit smaller then the shank area.

As long as it's either the same brand, or is meant for the same types of materials, it should be fine, right?

This is safe for tattoo machines and is non-toxic to us, be care with toxic lubes as they can get on gloves etc and transfer to the client.
The Super Lube stuff I bought isnt going anywhere after application so I think this wont be an issue theres nothing running or dripping.Quote:

Ill post a pic of the description which is on the tube but I think its suitable for the machines slider mechanism.
I've looked on the UK Amazon site and i found a product called Super Lube and it was manufactured by a company called Loctite which are well known in the UK for their adhesives.
Super Lube is what Franco recommends to use on the Bishop. I use Super Lube on all my rotaries and use very little, don't use oil for it can get into the motors more easilyQuote:

Maybe its because of the way the needle hits the skin, with a rotary to me it feels like the ink is pushed into the skin while the coil hammers the ink into it... Just a thought...Quote:

i got the same prob with my bishop rca version did u solve it¿?
what are you referring to?
Maybe a polarity issue?
