What do Tattoo Pigments do under the skin after the Tattoo is healed?
-
Remain liquid
-
Harden
-
Dye the fat cells
Correct Answer
A. Remain liquidExplanation
After a tattoo is healed, the tattoo pigments remain liquid under the skin. This means that they do not harden or solidify. Instead, they continue to exist in a liquid state, allowing the tattoo to maintain its color and appearance. The pigments do not dye the fat cells either, as they are contained within the skin layers and do not penetrate deep enough to reach the fat cells.Rate this question:

How deep does the Tattoo needle go into the skin?
-
2-3 mm
-
4-5mm
-
6-7mm
Correct Answer
A. 2-3 mmExplanation
The tattoo needle typically goes into the skin at a depth of 2-3 mm. This depth ensures that the ink is deposited in the dermis layer of the skin, which is more stable and less likely to fade over time compared to the epidermis layer. Going deeper than 2-3 mm can cause excessive bleeding and damage to the skin, while going shallower may result in the ink not being properly retained.Rate this question:

What is the difference between a weaved Mag. needle and a stacked Mag. Needle?
-
Stacked mags are bigger
-
Weaved mags have 4 rows of needles
-
Stacked are smaller because the needle are closer together
Correct Answer
A. Stacked are smaller because the needle are closer togetherExplanation
The correct answer is that stacked Mag. needles are smaller because the needles are closer together. This means that the individual needles in a stacked Mag. needle are spaced more closely compared to a weaved Mag. needle. As a result, the stacked Mag. needle has a smaller overall size.Rate this question:

What is the standard size of a tattoo Grip?
-
1/2 inch
-
1/4 inch
-
2 inch
Correct Answer
A. 1/2 inchExplanation
A standard size for a tattoo grip is 1/2 inch. This measurement refers to the diameter of the grip, which is the part of the tattoo machine that the artist holds onto while tattooing. Having a grip with a 1/2 inch diameter provides a comfortable and secure grip for the artist, allowing for better control and precision during the tattooing process.Rate this question:

What flows through the coils causing them to become magnetized?
-
Oil
-
Electricity
-
Gas
Correct Answer
A. ElectricityExplanation
Electricity flows through the coils causing them to become magnetized. When an electric current passes through a coil, it creates a magnetic field around the coil. This magnetic field causes the coil to become magnetized, attracting or repelling other magnetic objects. Therefore, electricity is the correct answer as it is the flow of electric charges that generates the magnetic field and magnetizes the coils.Rate this question:

What metal is not suggested to be used for making coils?
-
Copper
-
Iron
-
Aluminum
Correct Answer
A. AluminumExplanation
Aluminum is not suggested to be used for making coils because it has a lower electrical conductivity compared to copper and iron. Copper and iron are commonly used for making coils due to their high electrical conductivity, which allows for efficient transfer of electrical energy. Aluminum, on the other hand, has a higher resistance to electrical flow, resulting in lower efficiency and potential overheating of the coil.Rate this question:

Where does the yoke go on a tattoo machine?
-
Under the coils
-
On top of the coils
-
In the tube vise
Correct Answer
A. Under the coilsExplanation
The yoke on a tattoo machine is placed under the coils. The coils are an essential part of the machine that generate the electromagnetic force needed to move the needle. The yoke is responsible for holding the coils in place and ensuring their stability during operation. Placing the yoke under the coils allows for a secure and efficient setup, ensuring that the machine functions properly and the needle moves smoothly.Rate this question:

When choosing an armature bar for a liner tattoo machine, would you choose a lighter or heavier one to make it run faster?
-
Heavier
-
Lighter
Correct Answer
A. LighterExplanation
A lighter armature bar would be chosen to make the liner tattoo machine run faster. This is because a lighter armature bar requires less force to move, allowing it to move more quickly. The lighter weight reduces the resistance and allows for a faster and smoother movement, resulting in faster tattooing.Rate this question:

If you are bending your front spring, what degree of angle will give the best results?
-
90
-
35
-
15
Correct Answer
A. 15Explanation
Bending the front spring at a 15-degree angle will provide the best results. This angle is likely to offer the optimal balance between flexibility and stability, allowing the spring to absorb shocks and vibrations effectively while still providing enough support for the vehicle. A 90-degree angle would be too rigid and could result in a harsh ride, while a 35-degree angle might be too flexible and compromise the stability of the vehicle.Rate this question:

If you take a part your machine for cleaning, what should your machine be cleaned with?
-
Water
-
Hydrogen peroxide
-
A disinfectant solution
Correct Answer
A. A disinfectant solutionExplanation
The machine should be cleaned with a disinfectant solution because it is important to ensure that all parts of the machine are thoroughly cleaned and free from any bacteria or germs. Water alone may not be sufficient to remove all contaminants, and hydrogen peroxide may not be suitable for all types of machines. A disinfectant solution is specifically designed to kill harmful microorganisms and sanitize the machine effectively.Rate this question:

What is the optimal percentage of a duty cycle?
-
50-55%
-
25-30%
-
65-70%
Correct Answer
A. 50-55%Explanation
The optimal percentage of a duty cycle is 50-55%. This means that the active portion of the duty cycle should be around 50-55% of the total cycle time. A duty cycle is commonly used in electronics to control the power output of a device. It represents the ratio of time that the device is on (active) compared to the total time of one complete cycle. A duty cycle of 50-55% ensures a balanced distribution of on and off time, allowing for efficient operation and minimizing stress on the device.Rate this question:

What is the most common chemical used in the tattoo process?
-
Bleach
-
Witch hazel
-
Green soap
Correct Answer
A. Green soapExplanation
Green soap is the most common chemical used in the tattoo process. It is a type of soap that is specifically formulated for tattooing and is known for its antibacterial properties. Green soap helps to clean the skin before and during the tattooing process, removing dirt, oils, and bacteria. It is also used to dilute tattoo ink and to clean the tattooed area after the process is complete. Its gentle and effective formula makes it a popular choice among tattoo artists worldwide.Rate this question:
