Product Information

Full details

The Edding 51 Paint Marker (4-51-001) is ideal for professionals, artists, and crafters who need a reliable, opaque solution for precise marking on diverse surfaces like glass, wood, and stone. Its primary benefit is a high-quality, permanent finish that remains visible indoors and outdoors, though users should note that its water-based formula may require a longer drying time on non-porous surfaces compared to solvent-based alternatives.

FAQs

Is the Edding 51 waterproof?

Yes, once the ink has fully dried, it is permanent and water-resistant, making it suitable for outdoor use.

Can I use these on whiteboards?

No, these are permanent paint markers. They are not designed to be erased from whiteboards.

Is the ink non-toxic?

The ink is low-odour and designed for professional use, but it should not be ingested and should be kept away from children.

Are these markers refillable?

The Edding 51 is designed as a disposable marker, but its EcoLine status ensures that the plastic casing is recycled, reducing environmental impact.

What is the shelf life of the markers?

If kept capped and stored horizontally in a cool, dry place, the markers will maintain their quality for several years.

Troubleshooting

Ink is not flowing consistently

Ensure the marker has been shaken properly and verify it is being stored horizontally.

Ink looks faint on smooth surfaces

Wipe the surface with a degreaser or alcohol and allow it to dry completely before writing.

Nib feels dry or scratchy

Depress the tip gently on a piece of scrap paper until the capillary action pulls ink into the nib again.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, follow these maintenance tips:

  1. Storage: Always store your markers in a horizontal position when not in use to keep the nib evenly saturated.
  2. Preparation: Shake the marker firmly with the cap on for a few seconds before the first use to ensure the pigment is properly mixed.
  3. Surface Prep: Clean the application surface with isopropyl alcohol or a damp cloth to remove dust or oils, which helps the ink bond more effectively.
  4. Nib Care: If the nib becomes dry, press it gently against a piece of scrap paper multiple times until the ink flows again. Do not force the nib, as this can cause it to fray.
