Troubleshooting
Marker not writing or ink flow is weak.
Ensure the marker was shaken sufficiently and the tip was properly primed before first use. Press the tip down on a surface again for a few seconds to restart ink flow. Check if the cap was left off for an extended period, which might require re-priming.
Ink is smudging after application.
Allow the ink to dry completely; drying time can vary with surface and application thickness. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before application. Avoid touching the marked area until fully dry.
Tip appears damaged or clogged.
Gently try to clean the tip with a damp cloth if any debris is visible. If the tip is significantly damaged, the marker may need replacement. Avoid pressing too hard on rough surfaces.
