Montblanc Rollerball Skipping fix

Hey all. I have been extremely frustrated since using my rollerball. While I prefer the fountain pen Montblanc, I do need the roller ball at work to try to do duplicate form work. Nonetheless, I have felt that the rollerball will periodically clog up and be useless. I came across this video which is fabulous. It explained to me that the problem is that the rollerball refills, which are quite expensive, just run out of ink quickly. This is the cause of the skipping. Rather than continue to pay for expensive refills, it is very easy just to refill your own rollerball cartridge with regular fountain pen ink. Take a look at this video. It is fabulous. I tried it last night on a partially used skipping rollerball cartridge and it worked flawlessly. Hope you enjoy.

Montblanc RB refills are the worst!
