NeoTat Vivace Standard Stroke lining problem

[blue]

ok so i just picked you a neotat vivace and i set my needle up like i always do but when i stared lining the ink was blowing out under the skin any ideas ?????

Slow it down, might be running too fast. There is no give so if you push too much it will blow out quickly.

It will blow outlines in thin skin areas too if you're not careful. Underarm skin is particularly prone to it. I mainly use mine for packing and shading.

I find that they hit very hard even at low volts(just hits slower) you to really have to pay attention to needle depth/angle when lining.To me lining with a neo feels like you have a sowing machine in your hand.But i think great for solid color fields.(althoe it seems are fearless leader Alie K can do it all with them, she has alot of patience.)

I have only used the medium strike original neo to line with and for a few months it was almost all I used. I had no problems but I had to run off the tube more and move slower. Also I notice that voltage was deceptive an it lined better at 8.5 than over 9V

What volts, lining configurations, and pigment are you using? Sometimes something as simple as changing your lining ink can make all the difference.

i use Sumi Ink for lining, but i picked up some eternal lining black and that's what i used on this tattoo with the neo. i run 7 liners and the machine was at 10.2v i had it at 9v but it didnt seem to keep a solid line........... ill try using the sumi and lower the volts an ride the tube and see if that helps.

Eternal black can be a problem too. Do a search on here an you will hear it a bunch of times that lots of people have had color creep issues with eternal blacks

Indeed ! I have to sort out a blow out with eternal next thursday
