FAQs
Are Pilot FriXion Light Highlighters truly erasable?
Yes, the ink is specifically designed to be erasable using the friction from a FriXion eraser. This allows you to remove highlights without damaging the paper.
What is the best way to store these highlighters?
For best results, store the highlighters horizontally or tip-down. Always replace the cap securely after each use to prevent the tip from drying out.
Can I use these highlighters on any type of paper?
They work well on most standard paper types like those in notebooks and textbooks. However, on very thin or porous paper, there might be some ink bleed-through.
What happens if the highlighter is exposed to heat?
Exposure to high temperatures can cause the FriXion ink to fade or disappear. It is best to store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
How long does the ink typically last?
Ink longevity depends on usage frequency. With proper storage and regular capping, the ink should provide consistent performance for an extended period.
What colors are included in this pack?
This pack includes four colors: Blue, Green, Yellow, and Purple.
Troubleshooting
Highlighting is faint or skipping.
Ensure the cap has been securely replaced after the last use. If the highlighter has been unused for a while, try scribbling on a scrap piece of paper to revive the ink flow. Store horizontally or tip-down.
Ink does not erase cleanly.
Ensure you are using the correct FriXion eraser. Friction from the eraser generates heat, which causes the ink to disappear. Check that the paper has not been exposed to excessive heat, as this can make the ink permanent.
Tip is damaged.
Avoid pressing too hard or using the highlighter on rough surfaces. If the tip is significantly damaged, the highlighter may need to be replaced.
