FAQs

Are these markers safe for very young children?

Yes, the markers are designed with children in mind and are non-toxic. However, adult supervision is recommended, especially for children under three, to ensure proper usage and prevent potential misuse.

Can I use these markers on plastic surfaces?

These markers are specifically formulated for porous surfaces like paper, card, and fabric. They are not designed to adhere well to non-porous surfaces such as plastic, and the paint may rub off easily.

How do I clean up paint stains from clothes?

The paint is washable. For most fabrics, stains can be removed by washing the garment with soap and water in a washing machine. It's best to treat stains promptly.

What is the difference between the pearlescent pack and other Chubbie markers?

The pearlescent pack contains markers with a metallic, shimmering finish. Other Chubbie marker packs may offer standard colors without the pearlescent effect.

How long do the markers typically last?

The Chubbie Markers are designed to be long-lasting, providing a good amount of paint for numerous art projects. Longevity depends on usage frequency and storage conditions.

Can I achieve permanent results on fabric?

No, these are water-soluble markers, meaning the colors are washable. They are not intended for permanent fabric designs.

Do these markers require a brush?

No, the markers are designed to be used directly without any additional tools like brushes. They offer a clean, all-in-one solution for painting.

Troubleshooting

Marker is not dispensing paint.

Ensure the cap is removed. If the marker has been unused for a while, try gently scribbling on a scrap piece of paper to re-activate the paint flow. Check that the tip is not clogged; if so, gently wipe with a damp cloth.

Paint is smudging after application.

The markers are designed for quick drying on porous surfaces. Smudging may occur if the surface is not sufficiently porous or if too much paint is applied. Allow adequate drying time before touching the artwork. Ensure you are using the markers on appropriate porous materials.

Paint is difficult to wash off fabric.

For best results, wash fabric as soon as possible after painting. Use a standard washing machine cycle with detergent. For stubborn stains, try a pre-wash stain remover before laundering. Note that permanent fabric adhesion is not a feature of this product.

Marker appears dry or faded.

Ensure the cap was replaced securely after the last use. Store the markers properly to maintain their moisture. If a marker seems dry, try scribbling vigorously on scrap paper or briefly touching the tip to a damp cloth (avoid soaking).

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly reduces mess compared to traditional paints and brushes.
  • Washable from skin and most common fabrics.
  • Ergonomic design comfortable for young children to hold.
  • Provides a smooth, metallic pearlescent finish.
  • Durable and long-lasting use.
  • Easy to use for quick setup and immediate creative play.

Cons

  • Best performance on porous surfaces; may not adhere well to non-porous materials.
  • Pearlescent finish might not be suitable for all art projects.
  • Requires adult supervision for very young children to ensure proper use.
  • Potential for clogging if not stored with caps firmly on.
  • Colors may not be as vibrant on certain dark or non-white porous surfaces.
  • Not suitable for permanent applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Scola Chubbie Markers are ready to use straight from the pack. Simply remove the caps and begin drawing or painting.

Compatibility: These markers are ideal for porous surfaces such as:

  • Paper
  • Cardstock
  • Cardboard
  • Most untreated fabrics (e.g., cotton, linen)

They are generally not recommended for non-porous surfaces like glass, plastic, or metal, as the paint may not adhere properly or could smudge.

Care:

  • Storage: Always replace the caps immediately after use and ensure they are sealed tightly to prevent the markers from drying out. Store upright or horizontally in a cool, dry place.
  • Cleaning: If paint gets on skin, wash with soap and water. For most fabrics, stains can be treated by washing the garment in a washing machine on a normal cycle. Pre-treating stains with a stain remover may improve results.
