Product Information
Full details
The Q-Connect Permanent Marker is designed for professionals and students who require a reliable, versatile tool for labeling, signage, and general marking tasks across multiple surfaces. Its primary benefit is its long-lasting, waterproof, and quick-drying ink combined with a robust aluminum build; however, users should be aware that the permanent nature of the ink means it is not intended for use on surfaces where temporary or erasable writing is required.

FAQs
Can I use this marker on whiteboards?
No, this is a permanent marker and will not erase from standard whiteboard surfaces. Use dedicated dry-erase markers for that purpose.
Is the ink lightfast?
Yes, the ink is formulated to be lightfast, meaning it will not easily fade when exposed to light over time.
Is the ink non-toxic?
Yes, the Q-Connect marker utilizes non-toxic ink, making it safe for general office or school use.
Can I use this marker on fabric?
While it can mark fabric, it is a permanent marker and will not wash out; it may also bleed depending on the material type.
How long will the marker last?
The marker is designed to provide over 300 metres of writing length under standard conditions.
Troubleshooting
The tip appears dry or the ink is fading during use
Store the marker with the tip pointing downward for 15-30 minutes to allow gravity to pull the ink into the fibre tip.
The cap has been left off for longer than 4 hours
Try lightly dipping the tip into a tiny amount of isopropyl alcohol for a few seconds and then recap it for an hour to re-saturate the fibre.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No technical setup is required for this product. To ensure maximum longevity, keep these guidelines in mind:
- Storage: Always store the marker horizontally when not in use to maintain even ink flow to the fibre tip.
- Cap Management: Replace the cap firmly after each use. While the marker features a 4-hour cap-off time, keeping it capped will significantly extend its total writing length.
- Surface Compatibility: This marker is optimized for use on paper, plastic, glass, metal, and wood. Note that on extremely smooth, non-porous surfaces, the ink may require extra seconds to fully set.
- Cleaning: If marks need to be removed from non-porous surfaces, use a solvent-based cleaner or rubbing alcohol, as the ink is permanent and waterproof.
