Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these markers safe for children to use?

Yes, these markers are formulated without Xylene, making them a safer choice for use in educational or family environments. However, adult supervision is always recommended for young children.

How long does the ink typically last?

The lifespan of the ink depends on usage frequency and proper storage. When capped correctly and stored horizontally, they are designed for extended use.

Can I use these markers on glass or other surfaces?

These markers are specifically designed for whiteboard surfaces. While they might mark temporarily on other non-porous surfaces like glass, they may not be easily erasable and are not recommended for use outside of whiteboards.

What is the tip size of these markers?

These markers feature a bullet point tip, providing a medium line width suitable for general writing and drawing.

Do these markers have a distinct smell?

Thanks to the No Xylene formula, these markers have a low odor and are generally not unpleasant to use, unlike markers with traditional solvent-based inks.

Are other colors available in this range?

Yes, the product description mentions that other colors are available from the First Stat range.

How should I store the markers to get the most out of them?

It is best to store whiteboard markers horizontally or with the tip pointing downwards. Always ensure the cap is securely on after use to prevent the ink from drying out.

Troubleshooting

Marker not writing or writing faintly

Ensure the cap was securely replaced after the last use. Shake the marker gently and try writing on a scrap piece of paper. If the issue persists, the marker may be dry.

Ink smudges or doesn't wipe clean easily

Ensure you are using a proper whiteboard eraser or a clean, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, use a whiteboard cleaner solution. Avoid leaving ink on the board for very long periods without cleaning.

Tip seems damaged or misshapen

Handle markers with care to avoid dropping them. If the tip is significantly damaged, it may affect writing quality. Unfortunately, damaged tips cannot typically be repaired.

Pros and Cons

  • Comes in a convenient pack of 12
  • Durable bullet tip for consistent lines

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These whiteboard markers require no setup. Simply remove the cap and they are ready to use. They are compatible with all standard whiteboard surfaces. To ensure longevity and optimal performance:

  • Always replace the cap securely after each use to prevent the ink from drying out.
  • Store markers horizontally or tip-down to maintain consistent ink flow.
  • Clean the whiteboard regularly with a dedicated whiteboard cleaner to remove any residual ink, especially if left on the surface for extended periods.
  • Avoid using abrasive materials to clean the whiteboard, as this can damage the surface and affect marker performance.
  • If ink flow seems reduced, try storing the marker tip-down for a short period.
