Another round of pen cleaning! FPR Jaipur v2, Majohn A1, and two Jinhao 10s.

None of the capless pen nibs wanted to completely flush even after soaking and a trip through an ultrasonic cleaner. Close enough to be re-inked with a similar color, though.

The FPR had Colorverse Christmas Star in it and what little ink was left had completely dried out & clogged, but eased up after a soak. I still pulled the nib and section because dried shimmer ink was all over inside.

Top-down photo of several disassembled fountain pens. On the left is a glass ramekin with a folded paper towel, inside the folds are fountain pen nibs and converters. Below that is a small rectangular red rubber sheet and a disassembled bulb syringe. Next is an orange disassembled FPR Jaipur v2, then a blue Majohn A1, then a red Jinhao 10, then a brown gradient Jinhao 10. Above the pens on the right is a disassembled spring-loaded converter syringe.
