✨ Between Ranger and Jacquard Piñata, my MUCH preferred ink now is Piñata! It is more concentrated, more vibrant, more lightfast AND less expensive! It is easily thinned and blended for endless colors. If you watch later alcohol ink videos of mine you’ll see that I use a new NON-TOXIC alcohol ink brand called Kielty Ink even more. They are low in odor, more lightfast, and more concentrated. I hope you’ll have a chance to learn about them.✨

The price of isopropyl alcohol (also called "rubbing alcohol") is exorbitant online ... I was unable to find a reasonably priced listing to add for you here.

Ceramic tile prices were equally, or more, "just wrong" online ... $15 for 10 4x4 inch tiles?!? There should hopefully be no need to pay that. Home improvement stores, some hardware stores, tile shops, recycle/reuse shops, and more, carry them for much less.

If you'd like to seal your alcohol ink paintings, I use a museum quality spray by Krylon. Unlike most spray varnishes and acrylic sprays, it will not react in any way with the alcohol inks ... so, even the most tiny details will remain crisp and unchanged when sprayed.

I hope this was of help in getting you started.
