FAQs

What type of ink do these markers use?

These markers utilize alcohol-based ink, which allows for smooth blending and vibrant colors but can also lead to bleeding on thinner papers.

How many markers are included in this pack?

This pack includes 48 individual markers.

Can I replace the ink in these markers?

These markers are designed for single use and are not refillable.

Are these markers blendable?

Yes, the alcohol-based ink allows for blending with other markers from the same set or a dedicated blender marker.

What are the dimensions of the markers?

The exact dimensions are not specified, but they feature a standard round barrel suitable for grip and a transparent storage box.

Is the storage box included with every pack?

Yes, the product description states that the 48 pens come in a transparent box.

Can these markers be used for calligraphy?

While they have a fine tip for detail, they are not specifically designed for calligraphy. The broader tip may offer some brush-like strokes, but dedicated calligraphy pens would provide better results.

Troubleshooting

Marker not drawing ink

Ensure the cap is fully removed and try scribbling on scrap paper to re-activate the ink flow. If the marker has been stored vertically with the fine tip up for a long time, store it horizontally for a few hours to allow ink to reach the tip.

Inconsistent ink flow or skipping

Check that the marker cap was properly sealed. Try scribbling on paper to get the ink flowing smoothly. If the issue persists, the marker may be running low on ink.

Ink bleeding excessively

Use a heavier weight paper or paper specifically designed for markers. Ensure you are not over-saturating the paper with ink.

Tips becoming dry

Make sure caps are securely replaced after each use. If a tip feels dry, try storing the marker horizontally for 24 hours.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers a wide variety of 48 colors for diverse creative needs.
  • Dual tips provide versatility for both detailed lines and broad coverage.
  • Comes with a practical transparent storage box for organization.
  • Comfortable round barrel design for extended use.
  • Good ink flow for smooth application.

Cons

  • Dual-tip functionality may require a learning curve for optimal use.
  • Ink saturation can vary between colors, requiring testing.
  • Markers are alcohol-based, which may bleed on certain paper types without proper precautions.
  • The fine tip may wear down with very heavy, constant use.
  • Not suitable for very young children due to potential ink staining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Simply remove the caps from the desired marker tips. For initial use, you may need to scribble gently on a scrap piece of paper to activate the ink flow.

Compatibility: These markers are generally compatible with most paper types, but perform best on thicker marker paper or cardstock designed to minimize bleed-through. They are suitable for use on paper, card, and other porous art surfaces. Not recommended for use on fabric or glossy surfaces.

Care:

  1. Cap Tightly: Always replace the caps securely after each use to prevent the tips from drying out.
  2. Storage: Store the markers horizontally or upright with the fine tip down to ensure even ink distribution. Keep them in the provided transparent box away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  3. Cleaning: If ink accidentally gets on surfaces, wipe immediately with a damp cloth. For the markers themselves, avoid using water; if the casing is smudged, a dry or very slightly damp cloth can be used gently.
