will this work in fountain pens?

In my experience no. It clogs the pen easily. You can easily wash it off with warm water and it will peel like a skin but I have had zero luck when it comes to fountain pens and this ink.

If I erase will it smear

I'm my experience, no, but I do a lot of inking on blue line or with a light pad. When I do ink over pencils I tend to wait at least ten minutes before erasing. If you want an ink that is sure to not smear when erased, I think the DELETER black no. 2 is the one you want.

Can this ink do ink washes?

Yes, it's as good if not better than any other India ink.

What is everyone using to apply it? This is cheaper than ones with applicators. A small brush maybe? Recommendations?

Yeah a small brush works, on its own it's too thick to use with anything else but you can dilute it with water in order to use it with pen nibs or as fade effect on watercolor as well, bare in mind this is a VERY white tone so if the paper you're using is yellowish it will look a bit out of place
