The use and maintenance of fountain pens: Make your fountain pen more durable: Introduction Fountain pens, as a traditional writing tool, are loved by many for their unique writing experience and long service life. However, to make the fountain pen more durable and maintain its good writing condition, correct usage and maintenance methods are crucial. This article will introduce in detail how to properly use a fountain pen and how to maintain it to extend its service life. Part 1: Using a fountain pen Correctly. 1. Holding the pen properly Holding the pen properly has a significant impact on writing quality. The correct grip should have the palm flat, with the thumb, index finger, and middle finger holding the pen barrel, while maintaining a certain distance between the pen tip and the paper surface. This allows the hand muscles to relax and write more smoothly. 2. Choosing ink Selecting suitable ink is crucial for the writing performance of a fountain pen. Choose ink that is of good quality, bright in color, and not easily fade. At the same time, pay attention to the fluidity of the ink to avoid excessive viscosity or thinness that can cause poor writing flow. 3. Writing with moderate pressure Writing with too much force can lead to tip wear and affect writing quality. Therefore, it is essential to maintain moderate writing pressure and allow the tip to slide easily on the paper surface. Part 2: Maintenance of a fountain pen 1. Regularly cleaning the pen tip After prolonged use, the pen tip may become blocked. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly clean the pen tip to maintain its good writing condition. To clean, soak the tip in warm water and gently shake for a few minutes before rinsing with clean water. 2. Avoiding ink drying due to long-term non-use When not using a fountain pen for a long time, it is essential to empty the ink and clean it thoroughly. Otherwise, the ink may dry up in the pen tube, causing blockage of the fountain pen. 3. Storage environment Store your fountain pen in a dry and well-ventilated place, away from direct sunlight and damp environments. This can prevent rusting or damage of the fountain pen due to moisture. Part 3: Tips to extend the service life of your fountain pen In addition to the above usage and maintenance
