Sharpie Oil-Based Paint Marker, Medium Point

Yes, the oil-based ink is permanent, water-resistant, fade-resistant, and abrasion-resistant once fully dried.

While it can mark fabric, it is not specifically designed for fabric and may not withstand washing. It performs best on harder, non-porous surfaces.

For fresh ink, use a damp cloth or a solvent like mineral spirits. For dried ink, it may be difficult to clean, and you might need to try scraping or using a stronger solvent.

For most applications, the marks are durable on their own. However, for added protection on high-wear surfaces or items that will be frequently handled or washed, applying a clear sealant is recommended.

These markers are AP Certified and Xylene free, but they are not intended for direct food contact. Use them on the exterior of containers only.

With proper storage (horizontal, tightly capped), the ink can last for a significant period, often a year or more, depending on usage frequency and storage conditions.

Yes, it works well on most painted surfaces, including wood, metal, and plastic. Ensure the paint is fully cured before applying the marker.

Shake the marker vigorously, then prime the tip by pressing it firmly onto a suitable surface until ink flows. Ensure the cap was sealed properly when stored.

Allow more drying time. Ensure you are not touching the freshly applied ink. Work in a well-ventilated area, as proper drying can be affected by humidity.

Gently try to clean the tip with a damp cloth or a solvent like mineral spirits. If severely clogged, the tip may need replacement or the marker may no longer be usable.

Ensure the cap is always replaced immediately and securely after each use. Store markers horizontally.
