FAQs

How many colors are included in this set?

This set includes 6 vibrant colors.

What is the tip size of these highlighters?

The markers feature a 5mm chisel tip.

Are these highlighters suitable for left-handed users?

Yes, the quick-drying and smear-resistant ink is beneficial for left-handed users to minimize smudging.

What is the length of each pen?

Each pen measures 132mm in length, designed for a comfortable grip.

Can I use these highlighters on glossy paper?

These highlighters are best suited for standard paper. While they are quick-drying, performance on very glossy or coated paper may vary, and ink might take longer to dry, potentially leading to smudging.

How should I store these markers to ensure longevity?

Store the markers horizontally or tip-down to maintain consistent ink flow. Always recap them tightly immediately after use.

Is the ink permanent?

The ink is designed to be quick-drying and smear-resistant for highlighting purposes, but it is not specified as permanent. It is intended for marking documents rather than archival purposes.

Troubleshooting

Marker not working or ink flow is poor

Ensure the cap was securely replaced after the last use. Try gently scribbling on a scrap piece of paper. If the issue persists, the marker may be depleted or the tip may be clogged. Try cleaning the tip gently with a slightly damp cloth.

Ink is smudging despite being quick-drying

Ensure you are waiting an adequate but brief drying time. Smudging may occur if the paper is very glossy or if excessive ink was applied. Allow a few extra seconds for drying. Test on a different paper type.

Tip feels rough or damaged

Avoid using the markers on abrasive surfaces. If the tip is damaged, performance will be affected. Store and use the markers as recommended to prolong tip life.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile 5mm chisel tip for different marking styles.
  • Quick-drying and smear-resistant ink for clean results.
  • Comfortable pen length for prolonged use.
  • Comes in a pack of 6 vibrant colors.
  • Suitable for a wide range of users including students, professionals, and artists.

Cons

  • May not be suitable for very glossy paper where ink may take longer to dry.
  • Tip might wear down with aggressive use on rough surfaces.
  • Ink color may bleed through very thin paper.
  • Set contains only 6 colors, which might be limiting for highly complex color-coding systems.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-use markers. Simply remove the cap before the first use and recap immediately after to prevent drying.

Compatibility: Suitable for use on most standard paper types, including notebook paper, printer paper, and cardstock. Avoid use on non-porous surfaces. While the ink is designed to be smear-resistant on most paper, it's always best to test on a small, inconspicuous area first, especially on coated or glossy papers.

Care:

  1. Recap Tightly: Always replace the cap firmly after each use to maintain ink freshness and prevent tip drying.
  2. Storage: Store the markers horizontally or tip-down to ensure consistent ink flow.
  3. Cleaning: If the exterior of the pen becomes dirty, wipe it gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not immerse the pen in water or use solvents, as this can damage the marker.
  4. Tip Maintenance: Keep the chisel tip clean from paper debris or ink buildup to ensure optimal performance.
