Full details

These markers offer exceptional blendability and consistent, streak-free color, making them perfect for tasks ranging from manga creation to scrapbooking; however, users should note that the alcohol-based ink is permanent and will bleed through standard, thin sketchbook paper.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these markers refillable?

Winsor & Newton Promarkers are generally designed as disposable professional tools; they do not have a standard manufacturer-supported refill system.

Can I use these on canvas?

While they can mark canvas, the ink is designed for smooth, non-porous or high-quality paper surfaces and may bleed or spread on raw, absorbent canvas fabric.

Do these work with other brands of markers?

Yes, they are generally compatible with other alcohol-based marker brands, though blending results can vary depending on the chemical composition of the other inks.

Are the colors lightfast?

Like most dye-based alcohol markers, they are intended for design and illustration work and may fade over time if exposed to direct, intense sunlight.

What is the best way to clean mistakes?

Because the ink is permanent, mistakes are difficult to erase; however, a color-less blender marker can sometimes help lift or move the wet ink.

Troubleshooting

Marker tip feels dry or streaky

Ensure the cap is tightly replaced and store the marker horizontally for 24 hours to allow the ink to flow back into the tip.

Ink is bleeding through the back of the paper

Use heavier weight marker-specific paper or place a protective barrier sheet underneath your current page.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent blending capabilities for gradients
  • Versatile dual-tip design for broad and fine work
  • Works on non-porous surfaces like glass and plastic
  • Consistent, high-pigment color output

Cons

  • Ink can bleed through thinner paper types
  • Permanent ink requires care to prevent staining
  • Limited to three specific blue tones

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your markers, always store them horizontally to keep the ink evenly distributed between the two nibs. When working on paper, place a piece of scrap cardstock or a dedicated bleed-proof marker pad underneath your work area to prevent the ink from marking your desk surface. If you are using these on non-porous surfaces like glass or acetate, allow extra time for the ink to cure fully before handling to avoid smudging. Always replace the caps tightly until they click; this prevents the alcohol-based solvents from evaporating and drying out the nibs.
