Default extender vs retarder

i have read that when using speedball perm acrylic ink (wb) the extender base will SPEED UP the drying time of the ink. there is not a retarder offered in this line. does anyone have any tips on slowing the ink drying time to avoid ink drying in the screen?
thanks, travis

yes, they make retarder. small blue bottle. stuff dries so slow you won't need it anyway.
