Waste Inks

[player]

Is there a use for waste inks?

I have a big jar full, must be worth hundreds...

idk about the actual ink, but you can get $2 store credit per used cart at staples. Limit turn in is 10 per month however.

The looks I get when I take back a box of 440cc carts is priceless.

Not sure about Canada but in the states I wouldn't mess around. Contact your local hazardous waste handlers and send them them msds on all your inks. They will tell you about disposal. most likely your uv, solvent, and ecosolvent inks are hazardous material and need to be disposed as such. Typically a 55 gallon drum that may take years to fill but better than getting hit with a huge EPA fine.

Does staples Canada give $ for empty carts?

Ideal for your neck tatts I hear.
