We use 50% vinegar to set our ink.  Works well and doesn't smell as bad as
acetic acid or bouins.

Subject: Setting ink on tissues


> Hello!  Question for the netters:  Who or when or how did it come about to
use a dilute glacial acetic acid solution to help set ink on tissues.  This
is used in place of dunking in Bouin's.  Anybody know?
