Since it appears that I'm not the only person who fights with (and often
loses to) my B-72, I thought I'd pose another question.  We recently
purchased a new supply of clear B-72 from University Products, and it has
an extremely thin consistancy and also wipes off the black ink that has
been used to apply the number to the object.  We use ZIG "Millenium" pens,
which, according to them, are "pigment ink, Acid-free, Archival Quality,
Lightfast, Waterproof, Fade-Proof, Non-bleeding."  I assumed that there
was too much acetone in the solution, so we tried leaving the top off the
bottle for several hours, and when that had no effect, we left the top off
over night.  By this morning, half of the bottle had evaporated, but it is
still very thin and is still wiping away the ink.  Any suggestions?

Thanks!
