"Love the Formula 49... the fact that it will almost completely remove ink dye is a reason alone to call it a great product, not to mention how well it works to blend the inks." - Gloria Crane, Gourd Artist and Instructor.

GourdMaster™ Formula 49 is a ‘must have’ item for gourders! Use it to dilute or lighten Ink Dye or Transparent Acrylic colors or even to remove the colors if you’ve made a mistake!

Formula 49 is also perfect for blending colors together for a smooth transition from one color to the next.

Shown above, beautiful gourd art by Sue Sweder! Sue is well-known for her vibrant colors and beautiful carvings incorporated in her gourd art. She is able to achieve bright colors on her carved gourd surface by mixing GourdMaster^TM colors with Formula 49.

Incredible carved and painted Canteen gourd, by Nancy Foster. Thank you, Nancy, for sharing your artwork with us. Here is what Nancy writes in her post:
"I have finally completed another carved gourd project which I started over a year ago. It is a canteen gourd from Welburn. I changed my plans to include deep carving once I had the gourd cut in two pieces and saw how thick it was. I’ve included progress photos.

The color is Gourdmaster ink dyes and transparent acrylics. I had to use a lot of Formula 49 to “water down” the intense colors since the carved gourd surface is so porous. It also has pyrography details. The finish is a spray acrylic varnish. The inspiration is a Trailing Black-Eyed Susan variety called ‘Spanish Eyes’ which actually has multiple colors of flowers (Thunbergia Alata ‘Spanish Eyes’)." - Nancy Foster

"The formula 49 was a great investment. I can’t believe what a difference it made when using the Ink. I will be buying this product again 😉" - W.J.Napioer

Letters from Our Customers

"Hello, I just received the GourdMaster Pro Carver II yesterday – couldn’t wait to try it out – I love it!! I’ve been using the Dremel which has been great, but there’s something about the Pro – so quiet, and the handpiece is much more comfortable, low vibration – it was like carving through butter! I wish I lived closer to a gourd farm - not any in my area - Connecticut Thanks, Kathy"

"OHMIGOSH! I just unboxed my new Pro Carver II and even though it’s late, I decided to give it a 5 minute test run.
Let me say, I was happy when I went from a Dremel to the Proxxon. But there is a night and day difference with the Pro Carver! The hand piece fits my hand so much better, it’s lighter and I can barely feel the vibration!! After carving a couple hours with the Proxxon, my hand ends up tingling afterwards. I don’t anticipate that happening with the ProCarver based on what I just felt. Halllelujah! My hand, joints and titanium shoulder are going to be sooo happy!
I can’t wait to wake up tomorrow and start carving!" - Lori Smith
