Default Does Adirondack work for watercoloring images?

I am so used to using Ranger's Adirondack ink - I completely forgot that someone asked me for some images in Staz on so she could watercolor them. I used Ranger ink - will they run?

Yes. Adirondack inks are dye inks, so they are water-based. As a matter of fact, I just watercolored an image this week using my Adirondacks and a blender pen.

Does anyone know if you can watercolor with the Adirondack markers? Are they dye ink too?

I'm pretty sure the Adirondack markers are pigment based.

If you stamped the image in Adirondack ink, it will run with watercoloring. That's what you're asking about, right? not watercoloring using the Adirondack inks...?

I was told that you can use the Adirondack pitch black for stamping, then coloring with the copic markers, but not to color with water based markers, as the black ink will run.
I use staz-on for stamping before coloring with the regular markers.
