Full details

The Marxman Standard Professional Marking Tool is designed for tradespeople like electricians, plumbers, and builders who need to quickly and accurately mark surfaces for drilling. Its key benefit is the ease and speed of marking, even on challenging materials, up to 45mm deep. A potential caveat is that the pigment is removable, which may not be ideal for permanent marking needs.

How many marks can I expect from one Marxman tool?

What surfaces can the Marxman tool mark?

It can mark a wide variety of common construction surfaces including brick, metal, wood, pebbledash, porcelain, and ceramic.

Is the marking permanent?

No, the fluorescent green pigment is designed to be removable. This is useful for temporary guides.

What is the maximum depth the tool can mark for?

What color is the marking pigment?

Do I need to do anything to set up the tool?

No, the Marxman tool is ready to use immediately. Simply press it against the surface you wish to mark.

How should I store the marking tools?

Store the tools in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the pigment.

Troubleshooting

No mark appears on the surface

Ensure the tool is pressed firmly against the surface. Check if the tool has run out of pigment; each tool provides over 250 bursts. Try marking on a different type of surface to test functionality.

Faint or weak mark

The tool may be nearing the end of its pigment life. Apply more pressure when marking. Ensure the surface is relatively clean and dry for best results.

Mark is difficult to remove

While designed to be removable, some porous surfaces may retain pigment longer. Use a slightly stronger cleaning agent or a scrubbing brush on durable surfaces. Always test cleaning methods in a small, hidden area first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick and easy to use with a single push.
  • Marks a wide variety of common construction materials.
  • Provides clear, visible markings.
  • Suitable for marking depths up to 45mm.
  • Removable marking is convenient for temporary guides.

Cons

  • Pigment is removable, which may not suit all permanent marking requirements.
  • The CDU (Counter Display Unit) contains 30 tools, potentially too many for individual users.
  • Color is limited to fluorescent green.
  • Not designed for fine detail marking.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Marxman Standard Professional Marking Tool requires no setup. It is ready to use straight out of the CDU. Simply hold the tool against the surface where you need a mark and press down firmly. The pigment will transfer to the surface.

Compatibility: This tool is designed to mark a wide array of surfaces including, but not limited to:

  • Brick
  • Metal
  • Wood
  • Pebbledash
  • Porcelain
  • Ceramic
  • Painted surfaces
  • Concrete

Care: To maintain performance, store the marking tools in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the tip is clean before use to prevent accidental marks on unintended surfaces. If the tool becomes dry or the mark is faint, this may indicate it is nearing the end of its pigment supply (approximately 250+ bursts).

Cleaning Marks: The fluorescent green pigment is removable. For most surfaces, a damp cloth or standard cleaning solutions will suffice. Always test cleaning methods on an inconspicuous area first.
