      Most inks that come with kits need to be put straight in the bin

      I don’t mean to be rude but that’s a very unprofessional answer… I think he’s got a good point, especially if he is going to use them on himself at the very least… But no I don’t believe they can be sterilized after cracking open the bottle… Once it is open it can become contaminated very easily so watch your sterilization techniques… Best to buy ink off reputable companies but most of them only sell to professional artists… I’ll admid I buy crappy ink to use on myself but only if it’s sterile… Off a reputable company but it’s cheaper than quality inks, so use only good quality (sterile) inks on other people and be careful not to contaminate the bottle otherwise it will need to go straight in the bin

      While inks aren’t regulated by the FDA they are required to be sterile or you can be assured that there would be a recall and a ban on the products. Even the majority of the so-called quality inks are made in China due to the cost effectiveness of it. There are numerous companies that will sell you good quality ink no matter if you’re a professional tattoo artist or not. I’ll link a few reputable tattoo suppliers that have good customer service and are usually competitive when it comes to pricing.

      Boiling water isn’t enough. It can’t get above 212 degrees. An autoclave pressurizes the chamber, allowing the steam to approach 600 degrees. The pressure and steam kills pathogens, and denatures (melts) viral agents, as well as usually burning off any residual chemical traces.

      You could probably find most of the tattoo kit when you are suppose to buy it just check it out.

      the only kit ink i would use on skin is Radiant. if it is chinese or scream throw it away buy eternal waverly starbrite moms dynamic kuro sumi voodoo Irezumi ane get them from a reputable dealer or from the manufacturer if possible Intenze has been having a problem with people putting their labels on scream ink bottles so be careful most reputable inks will come sterilized I cannot say the same for chinese inks. be careful poor quality ink can cause severe reactions in people with allergies or sensitive skin also they will heal badly and dull so you will have to touch up over and over so extra pain for yourself or client . I would also recommend you practice with the ink you will be using in skin on fruit as inks have different consistencies and you will get a better results if when you go to skin you are already familiar with the characteristics of the ink needle and tube setup you are using if you are going to use disposables practice with them and leave ebay alone as far as ink needles tubes check out http://www.tattoomachineequipment.com
