INTENZE Products is proud to present a new black & grey tattoo ink set formulated by legendary tattooist Mark Mahoney, the "founding father" of black and grey tattooing. This is the formula and shades of black & grey that Mark Mahoney himself uses while he tattoos. The result is an unbelievable black & grey system of tattoo ink ideally suited for black & grey portraits, lettering, religious tattoos, and Cholo artwork made famous in Southern California. 

Mark Mahoney is a tattoo icon and the purveyor of the Shamrock Social Club on Hollywood's sunset strip in Los Angeles. He came up with the old-school ways of tattooing and broke boundaries with his unique style and impact on the California tattoo scene, which has influenced the entire world.

After honoring Mark Mahoney in the INTENZE Never Fade campaign in 2010, the company jumped at the chance to continue to work with Mr. Mahoney on a tattoo ink product. The first step was a limited edition Shamrock Green tattoo ink released on St. Patrick's Day in March 2011 that paid homage to The Shamrock Social Club, Mr. Mahoney's tattoo shop. But INTENZE Products and their customers wanted to learn more about Mark's legendary Black & Grey tattoo style, which led to the release of Mark Mahoney's Gangster Grey Tattoo Ink.

INTENZE Products and Mark Mahoney began the scientific approach of replicating Mahoney's black & grey tattoo ink formula. After months of testing, developing, and tattooing, the procedure matched INTENZE Products' and Mr. Mahoney's standards. Mark Mahoney is quoted on the product box saying, "Dis here is my secret recipe. I have been using this stuff since 1983. I hope it does for you what it's done for me. Respectfully, Mark Mahoney.

This set includes four black shades of ink, one white ink, and Mr. Mahoney's Miracle Water distilled mixer, along with the box set.

All our pigments are vegan, cruelty-free, and made in the USA.
