FAQs

Are these markers permanent?

Can I refill these markers?

Yes, these markers are designed to be refillable, extending their lifespan.

What surfaces can I use these markers on?

These markers work well on paper, card, ceramic, wood, and more. Test on a small area first to ensure compatibility.

How do I store these markers?

Store the markers horizontally to ensure even ink distribution and prevent them from drying out. Always recap them tightly after use.

What should I do if the tip dries out?

Try gently re-wetting the tip with rubbing alcohol or a marker revival solution.

Are the colors lightfast?

The ink is highly pigmented but color permanence can vary depending on the paper type and exposure to direct sunlight. It's best to store artwork away from direct sunlight.

What is the difference between the chisel and bullet tip?

The chisel tip is wider and ideal for filling large areas and creating broad strokes, while the bullet tip is fine and perfect for detailed work, outlining, and fine lines.

Troubleshooting

Marker ink appears faded or light.

Ensure the marker is capped tightly when not in use. If the tip is dry, try gently re-wetting it with rubbing alcohol.

Ink is bleeding through the paper.

Use thicker paper or cardstock. Apply lighter pressure when coloring. Place a sheet of paper underneath your work to prevent bleed-through.

Colors are not blending well.

Use blending techniques like layering colors and using a colorless blender pen. Allow ink to dry slightly before blending.
