Product Information

Full details

The Staedtler Lumocolor 316 WP4 is an essential tool for educators, presenters, and creative professionals who require versatile marking on glossy surfaces, such as overhead projector film, glass, and plastic. These water-soluble markers provide high-brilliance, precise lines that dry quickly to prevent smudges and wipe clean easily with a damp cloth; however, users should be aware that the markings are not moisture-resistant and will smear if they come into contact with water or high humidity.

FAQs

Can these pens be used on whiteboards?

While they will work, they are specifically optimized for overhead film and glossy non-porous surfaces. Standard whiteboard markers may be better suited for frequent whiteboard use.

Are the markings permanent on paper?

Yes, because paper is a porous material, the ink will soak into the fibers and become permanent.

How long can I leave the cap off?

Thanks to Dry-Safe technology, the pens can be left uncapped for up to two days without drying out.

Are the pens refillable?

Yes, they are compatible with the Staedtler Lumocolor refill station 487 15.

What is the tip size?

These pens feature a fine tip with a 0.6 mm stroke width.

Will the ink fade over time?

The ink is designed for superb colour brilliancy; however, as a non-permanent marker, it is intended for temporary use and should be kept away from excessive moisture.

Troubleshooting

The pen feels dry or skips when writing.

Ensure the cap is closed tightly for several hours to allow the ink to re-saturate the tip, or refill the ink using the 487 15 refill station.

Markings are not wiping off easily.

Ensure you are using a damp cloth; if the ink has dried for an extended period, a slightly wetter cloth or a small amount of non-abrasive cleaner may be required on non-film surfaces.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent versatility for use on almost any smooth surface
  • Markings wipe clean effortlessly from non-porous materials
  • Fast-drying ink prevents accidental smudging during use
  • Reliable ink flow ensures consistent line quality
  • Dry-safe cap-off time prevents the pen from drying out prematurely

Cons

  • Not intended for permanent applications
  • Markings will smudge if exposed to water or high moisture
  • Requires professional refill station for maintenance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No specialized setup is required; simply uncap the pen to begin writing. For optimal performance, store the pens in the provided stand-up box to ensure the ink remains at the tip. To maintain the life of your pens, always replace the cap securely when not in use, although the Dry-Safe technology provides a buffer if left open. If the ink intensity fades, the pens can be easily replenished using the Lumocolor refill station 487 15. To clean, use a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with water and gently wipe the surface until the markings are removed.
