Is it a No-No to mix oil and rubber based inks?
I bought oil-based but want to switch to rubber. As I am slowly transitioning can I mix oil colors with rubber colors?
Also, I was adding Base Extender to ink over the weekend and when I printed in left little oily beads on the paper. Did I use too much? Is Base Extender the same thing as transparent white?
Thanks for any advice!

I have added a touch oil based opaque white to rubber based colors (I was in a pinch and I don’t have any white that is rubber based). I did not mix up a bunch or anything just added a teeny tiny bit to lighten a color.
I mix them all the time and it works for me.
Doesn’t anyone understand ink compostion and use? What next? Food coloring for that oh-so-special tint?
Thanks everyone! And, no, I don’t really understand ink composition and use…that’s why I’m asking questions.
