Troubleshooting
Marker not working
Ensure the marker cap is securely closed when not in use. Try pressing the tip down on a scrap surface to restart ink flow. If the marker is still not working, it may need to be replaced.
Lines are faint on material
Ensure you are applying firm, consistent pressure when tracing from the sheet to your material. Check if the permanent marker needs replacement for a stronger ink output.
Tracing sheet is scratched
Minor scratches may not significantly impact tracing. For deeper scratches, consider using a different tracing sheet from the set or replacing the sheet if usability is compromised.
