FAQs

Are these pens suitable for left-handed people?

Yes, the quick-drying, smear-resistant ink makes them an excellent choice for left-handed writers who typically struggle with smudging.

Can I leave the pen tip exposed between writing?

It is recommended to retract the tip when not in use to prevent the ink from drying out and to protect the fine 0.5mm nib.

How should I store these pens?

Store them horizontally at room temperature and avoid placing them in extreme heat or direct sunlight.

Does the ink bleed through thin paper?

While the gel ink is quite stable, bleed-through depends on paper quality. It performs best on high-quality notebook paper.

How many pens are in the set?

The set includes 10 pens in an assortment of unique vintage-inspired colors.

Troubleshooting

Pen is skipping while writing

Ensure you are using the pen on a flat surface and try scribbling in circles on scratch paper to redistribute the ink.

Ink feels too light or faint

Check if the pen has been stored in direct sunlight or heat, and allow it to sit at room temperature for several hours before use.

Retractable button is stuck

Check the clip area for any debris and gently press the click mechanism again to disengage the internal spring.

  • Fine tip is excellent for intricate details
  • Unique color selection is great for color-coding

Cons

  • Requires horizontal storage for optimal ink flow

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your WRITECH pens last as long as possible, always retract the pen tip when not in use to prevent the ink from drying inside the nib. Store the pens horizontally; this prevents ink from settling at one end of the cartridge, which can lead to skips or inconsistent flow. Keep them away from radiators, sunny windowsills, and hot car interiors, as extreme heat can thin the gel ink and cause leaks or premature drying. If a pen has been stored vertically for a long time, try scribbling on a scrap piece of paper for a few seconds to 'prime' the ink flow back to the tip.
