The Pentel Maxiflo Medium Dry Wipe Markers & Magnetic Eraser Set is designed for professionals and educators who need reliable, vibrant markers for white or porcelain boards. Its key benefit is the unique pump-action system that revives dried-out markers, ensuring longevity and consistent ink flow. A potential caveat is that the pigment-based ink may require thorough erasing on older or porous boards.

The Maxiflo system uses a unique internal mechanism. When the tip is pressed down, it allows ink to flow from the reservoir to replenish the tip, effectively reviving a marker that has started to dry out.
These markers use vivid, pigment-based liquid ink, which provides high opacity and vibrant colors.
While they are primarily designed for whiteboards and porcelain boards, they might write on glass temporarily. However, they are not intended for permanent marking on other surfaces and may be difficult to remove.
With proper storage and the use of the Maxiflo system, these markers are designed for long-lasting performance. Actual lifespan depends on usage frequency and board surface.
The ink is designed for dry erasing and is not formulated for blending like alcohol-based markers. Attempting to blend may result in smudging or poor erasability.
The medium bullet tip provides a stroke width ranging from approximately 2 mm (for finer lines) to 2.5 mm (for broader lines).
The product description specifies a 'Magnetic Eraser Set', indicating that an eraser is included with the markers.
Activate the Maxiflo pump system by pressing the tip down firmly on a piece of scrap paper several times until ink flows consistently. Ensure the marker is stored horizontally.
This is uncommon with the Maxiflo system. Ensure the cap is securely replaced after each use. If the problem persists, try the pump action to replenish ink.
Ensure you are using a suitable whiteboard surface. Try erasing sooner after writing. Use a dedicated whiteboard cleaner if dry erasing is insufficient, but test in an inconspicuous area first.
The bullet tip is designed for durability. If it appears damaged, try to gently realign it. If the tip is significantly worn or broken, the marker may need replacement.
Setup: These markers are ready to use straight out of the pack. For initial use or if the marker has been stored for a long time, you may need to activate the Maxiflo pump system. Press the tip down firmly on a piece of scrap paper a few times until ink flows smoothly.
Compatibility: Designed for use on standard whiteboards and porcelain enamel surfaces. Not recommended for use on porous surfaces such as paper, fabric, or unsealed wood, as the pigment ink may stain permanently.
