Does anyone know if there are Puff Inks that will pass child safety testing for kids ages 4+?

Thank you!

What do you mean by child safety testing?  CPSIA? Some brand RSL?

  QCM has a puff additive that is good for CPSIA testing.

One Stroke 680 series. Assuming you mean CPSIA, they supply 3rd party test results and Certificates of Compliance for all of their inks, including this series.

For the ink: http://onestrokeinks.com/special-effect-ink-page-2.html
For the documentation, click on the "compliance" dropdown menu, and choose Test Results or COCs, then look up the 680 info.

(The fact that they provide CPSIA documentation is what introduced us to One Stroke.)

Okay, here we go again with that pesky CPSIA, and the way I understand its confusing descriptions.
In a nutshell, 12 and under, it pretty much banned lead, which really wasn't common for a long time in our inks anyway.
3 and under is where it got fuzzy with "sleepwear" and phthalates but most modern plastisols went this route across the board as well.

I'd be more concerned with puff inks possibly being more likely to flake off if chewed, or even after normal wear and tear and numerous launderings.
