Product Information

Full details

This guide is for artists, crafters, and professionals who need a reliable marking tool for various surfaces. The key benefit is the versatility of marking on both porous and non-porous materials without smudging or fading. A minor caveat is that the mark is water-soluble, making it erasable, which might not be ideal for permanent outdoor applications. These Sharpie China Markers feature a fine point for detailed work, are made of wax for clear and easy marking, and require no sharpening – simply peel back the paper wrap to expose more marker. They are resilient, resist fading, and are water-soluble for easy cleanup.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these markers permanent?

No, the marks are water-soluble and erasable with a damp cloth, making them ideal for temporary or adjustable labeling.

Can I use these on fabric?

While they may mark on some fabrics, they are primarily designed for non-porous surfaces like glass, ceramic, and metal. The water-soluble nature might not be suitable for most fabric applications.

How do I get more marker if the tip wears down?

Simply peel back more of the paper wrapping to expose a fresh section of the wax marker tip.

What is the shelf life of these markers?

Stored properly in a cool, dry place, these wax markers can last for several years. Avoid extreme temperatures.

Can these be used for outdoor applications?

They are best suited for indoor or protected environments. Exposure to rain or moisture will cause the marks to wash away.

Is the yellow color opaque?

The yellow color provides good visibility, especially on darker surfaces. For full opacity on very smooth or dark surfaces, a second pass might enhance the visibility.

Do I need any special tools to use them?

No, the peel-off design requires no special tools. You just need your fingers to pull the paper string.

Troubleshooting

Marker tip breaks off during peeling.

Peel the paper slowly and steadily. If the tip breaks, try to carefully expose more marker by continuing to peel.

Mark is smudged after application.

Allow the mark to dry for a few moments before touching it. Avoid rubbing the mark immediately after application.

Marker doesn't write smoothly.

Ensure you have peeled enough paper to expose a fresh tip. If the surface is very slick, try a slightly firmer pressure or a second pass.

Mark is difficult to erase.

Use a slightly damp cloth. For tougher marks, try a mild cleaner like Windex or a gentle soap and water solution. Test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These markers require no setup beyond preparation. To use, simply grasp the paper wrapping and pull the string to advance the wax marker tip. Continue peeling until the desired amount of marker is exposed. Do not attempt to sharpen the marker.

Care:
