Product Information

Full details

The Posca Brush Marker PC-5BR set is an essential tool for artists, illustrators, and crafters who need a versatile, expressive medium that performs across a wide variety of materials. Featuring a semi-flexible brush tip capable of line widths from 1mm to 4mm, these water-based pigment markers allow for significant creative control in calligraphy and mixed-media projects, though users should note that permanent results on non-porous surfaces require post-application heat or varnish treatments.

FAQs

Are these markers non-toxic?

Yes, Posca markers use water-based pigment ink that is non-toxic and odourless.

Can I use these on clothing?

Yes, they work on fabric. Once the ink is dry, iron the fabric (on the reverse side) to set the ink for better wash resistance.

How many colours are in this specific set?

This set contains 8 colours: Coral, Orange, Beige, Grey, Light Pink, Brown, Violet, and Aqua Green.

Do I need to prime the markers before the first use?

Yes, shake the marker well, then gently press the tip onto a test surface until the paint begins to saturate the nib.

Will the ink bleed through my sketchbook?

Posca markers are formulated not to bleed through most standard paper types, making them ideal for journaling and illustrations.

How do I store these markers to make them last longer?

Store your markers horizontally to keep the ink distributed evenly and prevent the tips from drying out.

Troubleshooting

The ink flow is dry or inconsistent.

Ensure the cap is tight and shake the marker again. Press the tip against a scrap surface multiple times to re-prime the nib.

The brush tip has become frayed.

Avoid applying excessive pressure. Ensure the cap is replaced immediately after use to prevent the tip from drying out.

Ink is wiping off a non-porous surface.

The ink requires a sealer. Bake the item in an oven or apply a clear spray varnish to fix the pigment permanently.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, shake the marker with the cap on to mix the internal pigment. Press the tip down on a scrap piece of paper several times until the ink flows into the nib. For long-term storage, keep markers in a horizontal position to ensure even ink flow to the tip. To clean the tip, simply wipe it with a damp cloth if paint builds up. If you are applying ink to non-porous surfaces like glass or metal, allow the ink to dry completely, then bake the object in an oven (if heat-safe) or spray with a clear acrylic varnish to ensure the artwork remains permanent.
