Professional Rinse Cup for Cartridge Cleaning, Stowing and Blackout Work
The TattooINC Plant-Based Rinse Cup is designed specifically for professional tattoo artists who require controlled cartridge rinsing and efficient workstation management. Unlike large disposable cups that waste water and increase clean-up material, this rinse cup is optimised for low-volume use while maintaining functional depth for cartridge immersion.
It allows artists to rinse pigment from cartridges during colour changes, temporarily stow cartridges between passes to prevent ink from drying inside the tip, and it can also be used as an ink cup for large cartridge groupings during blackout work.

Why Proper Cartridge Rinsing Matters
Ink begins to dry inside cartridges when left exposed. Once pigment starts to solidify, flow rate changes, saturation decreases, and line consistency can be affected. A dedicated rinse cup keeps cartridges active, reduces clogging risk, and supports consistent performance throughout the tattoo procedure.
