Are these pencils lightfast?
These pencils provide high-quality pigments suitable for hobbyists and students, though they are categorized as an artist-grade set rather than archival museum-grade.

Troubleshooting
Lead keeps breaking during sharpening
Ensure your sharpener blade is sharp; a dull blade will pull and snap the lead. If using an electric sharpener, avoid applying excessive downward pressure.
Colors are not blending smoothly
Ensure you are using appropriate drawing paper. Heavily textured paper may require more pressure or a colorless blender pencil to achieve a smooth finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Deli Finenolo set, store the metal tin in a cool, dry place to prevent core softening or wood warping. When sharpening, use a sharp, high-quality blade to prevent the lead from breaking inside the wood casing.
These pencils are compatible with most standard manual and electric sharpeners. To maintain the best performance, avoid dropping the tin, as significant impact can cause the internal leads to fracture despite their break-resistant engineering. Clean the inside of the tin occasionally with a dry cloth to prevent graphite or pigment dust from accumulating.
