Anyone know if I can use regular Nazdar ink ti print onto TIN blanks?

The idea for using Tin as the substrate is that it would be closer to historical accuracy...we are using it to male reproductions of warranty plates for John Deere Freight Wagons, circa 1880....

Will Nazdar work on TIN?

Thanks,
Barry

I'm assuming you mean the 5900 enamels.
I don't see why not ... but sure way to find out is to test.
If it doesn't work (don't know why it wouldn't) you might try the epoxy.

I agree, the 59000 should work. I'd strongly recommend testing first. If it doesn't work, I'd try the epoxy inks.
