Here's how to use them:

 ✅ What You’ll Need:

* A fountain pen that accepts standard international cartridges
* Jacques Herbin cleaning solution cartridge
* Paper towel or cloth
* Water (for final rinse, optional)

 🧼 Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Remove the Ink Cartridge or Converter

• Unscrew the barrel of your fountain pen.
• Take out the current ink cartridge or converter and set it aside.

2. Insert the Cleaning Cartridge

• Take one Jacques Herbin cleaning cartridge from the tin.
• Insert it into the pen as you would a regular ink cartridge.
• Press firmly until you feel it puncture and seat correctly.

3. Flush the Pen

• Hold the pen nib-down over a paper towel or sink.
• Gently squeeze or write with the pen to push the cleaning solution through the feed and nib.
• Continue until the solution flows freely from the nib (you’ll usually see it clear or slightly cloudy, depending on ink residue).

4. Let It Sit (Optional)

• For a deeper clean, let the solution sit in the pen for 10–15 minutes.
• This helps loosen any stubborn ink build-up inside.

5. Flush with Water (Optional but Recommended)

• Remove the cleaning cartridge.
• Rinse the section (nib and feed) under cool water until it runs clear.
• You can use a bulb syringe or converter to help flush the water through more effectively.

6. Dry the Pen

• Gently blot the nib with a paper towel.
• Let the pen air dry completely before inserting a new ink cartridge or refilling.

💡 Tips

• Don’t reuse  a cleaning cartridge once it’s empty — they’re designed for one-time use.
• If you use multiple ink colours or shimmer inks, clean your pen regularly to prevent clogging.
• Ideal frequency: once every few weeks or between colour changes.
