Once acrylic paint is dry, it is generally permanent and difficult to blend. For blending, work quickly while the paint is still wet, or use layering techniques.
When stored correctly with caps tightly sealed and kept horizontally or tip-down, the acrylic paint in the markers should remain usable for at least 1-2 years.
While the markers are non-toxic, adult supervision is recommended, especially for younger children, due to the permanent nature of acrylic paint and the precision tips.
These markers are not intended for use on skin and may cause irritation. They are designed for artistic applications on various surfaces.
Removing dried acrylic ink can be challenging. On non-porous surfaces, soaking with rubbing alcohol or a specialized art cleaner may help. On porous surfaces, it is often permanent.
Acrylic markers use water-based acrylic paint, providing opaque, vibrant, and permanent coverage. Alcohol markers use alcohol-based ink, offering translucent, blendable colors often used for illustration and smooth gradients.
Sealing is recommended for longevity and protection, especially on surfaces like canvas, wood, or fabric, or if the artwork will be exposed to handling or environmental factors. A clear acrylic sealant spray or varnish is suitable.
Ensure the pen is shaken properly. Prime the tip by pressing it down on scrap paper until ink flows. If still not working, try gently tapping the tip on a hard surface or submerging the tip briefly in warm water.
Shake the pen more vigorously. Ensure the cap has been sealing properly to prevent drying. Clean any dried ink from the tip using a damp cloth.
For non-porous surfaces, try to wipe the mark immediately with a damp cloth or soap and water. For porous surfaces, smudges may be permanent once dry.
Acrylic markers provide opaque coverage, but a base coat of white acrylic paint or gesso on dark surfaces can enhance the vibrancy of subsequent colors.
Setup: Before first use, ensure the pen tip is fully saturated. Gently shake the pen with the cap on, then press the tip down on a scrap surface a few times until the paint flows evenly. Some pens may require repeated priming.
Compatibility: These markers are designed for use on porous and semi-porous surfaces including paper, cardstock, canvas, wood, ceramic, glass (may require sealing for permanence), and most fabrics. Test on an inconspicuous area first, especially on delicate materials.
Care: Store pens horizontally or with tips pointing down to maintain paint flow. Keep caps tightly sealed after use to prevent drying. Clean any accidental marks on non-porous surfaces immediately with water and soap. For fabrics, allow the artwork to cure for at least 24 hours before washing, and hand-wash gently in cold water.
