FAQs
How many colors are included in the pack?
The Bic Velleda Marker 1701 Assorted pack contains 48 different colors.
What types of tips do these markers have?
These markers feature dual tips: a fine tip for precise lines and a chisel tip for broader strokes.
Are these markers suitable for children?
Yes, the markers have a non-toxic formula, making them safe for use by children under adult supervision.
Can I use these markers on glass or plastic?
While they can mark on non-porous surfaces, the ink is not permanent and can be wiped off. They are best suited for paper and porous materials.
How should I store the markers to ensure they last longer?
Store the markers horizontally or tip-down to maintain optimal ink flow. Always cap them tightly after use.
Does the ink smudge easily?
The ink is designed to dry quickly, which helps to minimize smudging. However, on certain surfaces or with heavy application, smudging can still occur before the ink is fully dry.
What is the primary use for these markers?
These markers are versatile and can be used for a wide range of tasks including drawing, coloring, writing, presentations, and general creative projects.
Troubleshooting
Marker not writing or skipping
Ensure the cap was securely replaced after last use. Gently scribble the marker on a scrap piece of paper to revive the ink flow. If the issue persists, the marker may be dry.
Ink bleeding through paper
Use thicker, higher-quality paper. Apply lighter pressure when drawing or coloring. Ensure the ink has fully dried before touching the surface.
Cap is difficult to remove or reattach
Ensure there is no ink residue around the cap or marker body. If the cap is stuck, gently twist and pull. If it's loose, ensure it's fully seated to create a seal.
Color appears lighter than expected
Shake the marker gently before use. Some colors, especially lighter shades, may require multiple layers or a darker base color for vibrancy.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These markers are ready to use straight out of the package. Ensure the cap is removed before the first use.
Compatibility: The Bic Velleda Marker 1701 is designed for use on paper, cardstock, and other porous surfaces. While they can be used on non-porous surfaces like plastic or glass, the ink may not be permanent and can be wiped away. They are not specifically designed for permanent applications on smooth surfaces.
Care:
- Cap Tightly: Always replace the cap securely after each use to prevent the ink from drying out. Store markers horizontally or tip-down for optimal ink flow.
- Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Store markers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Cleaning: If ink gets on skin or surfaces, use soap and water. For stubborn marks on surfaces, a mild cleaning solution might be necessary, but test in an inconspicuous area first.
- Tip Maintenance: Avoid pressing too hard on the tip, as this can cause damage. If the tip becomes frayed, it may affect line consistency.
