Product Information

Full details

Designed for artists, hobbyists, and calligraphers, these B&Q Dual Tip Brush Pens offer exceptional versatility for illustration, hand lettering, and adult colouring projects. The key benefit of this 12-pack is the dual-tip design that allows for both broad strokes and fine detailing in a single tool, though users should note that the water-based ink is not permanent and may bleed on very thin or non-absorbent paper.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these pens permanent?

No, these are water-based watercolour pens and are not permanent or waterproof.

Can these be used for watercolour painting?

Yes, because the ink is water-soluble, you can use a wet brush to pull the pigment and create wash effects.

What is the smallest line width available?

The fine tip provides a 0.4mm line width for detailed work.

Are the pens refillable?

No, these pens are designed as disposable instruments.

Are they safe for children?

The pens are non-toxic, but adult supervision is recommended for younger children due to small parts (caps).

Can I blend the colours?

Yes, you can touch two nibs together to transfer colour or use a plastic palette to mix them with a small amount of water.

Troubleshooting

Pen tip feels dry or skips

Cap the pen and store it horizontally for 24 hours to allow the ink to re-distribute to the tip.

Ink bleeding through the paper

Use thicker, higher-gsm paper designed for water-based markers to prevent saturation and ghosting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Dual-tip functionality saves space and reduces the need for multiple tools
  • Water-based, odourless ink is comfortable for extended use
  • Flexible bristle tips allow for excellent line variation
  • Non-toxic formula makes them suitable for hobbyists of all ages

Cons

  • Not waterproof, meaning the ink will react to moisture
  • Limited to 12 colours, which may require blending techniques for more complex palettes
  • May bleed through very lightweight printer paper

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These pens do not require special setup; they are ready for use immediately upon opening. For optimal performance, always replace the caps tightly after each use to prevent the water-based ink from drying out. Store the pens horizontally to ensure even ink distribution to both tips. They are best compatible with mixed-media paper, cardstock, or high-quality drawing pads. Avoid using these pens on glossy or plastic-coated paper, as the ink may not absorb properly and could smudge.
