FAQs

Are the pens refillable?

No, the Sakura Pigma Micron pens are disposable.

Can I use these pens on fabric?

While the ink is permanent, it is designed for paper. Results on fabric may vary and are not guaranteed.

How long will the ink last?

The ink is archival quality and designed to last for many years, provided the artwork is stored properly (away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures).

What kind of projects are these pens best suited for?

They are ideal for detailed illustrations, manga art, technical drawing, scrapbooking, journaling, and creating archival-quality artwork.

Are these pens waterproof?

Yes, the ink is waterproof.

What is the difference between the different tip sizes?

The different tip sizes allow for a variety of line weights. The finer tips (005, 01) are for very fine details, while the thicker tips (05, 08) are for broader lines and filling in areas.

How should I store these pens?

Store the pens horizontally in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Pen not writing or skipping

Ensure the tip is clean and free of debris. Try gently pressing the tip on a piece of paper to encourage ink flow. If the problem persists, the pen may be dried out.

Ink bleeding through paper

The paper may be too thin or absorbent. Try using a heavier weight paper or a paper specifically designed for pens.

Smudging after erasing

Allow the ink to dry completely before erasing. Using a lighter touch when erasing can also help prevent smudging. Use a soft eraser.
