FAQs
Are these pens suitable for very young children?
Yes, the ink is non-toxic and washable, and the caps are ventilated for safety. However, supervision is recommended for very young children.
How many colors are included in the pack?
The pack contains 144 pens in 12 assorted bright colors.
What is the tip size of these pens?
The tip width is 2.8 mm.
How easy is it to wash the ink off?
The ink is water-based and easily washable from skin with soap and water. It can also be machine-washed from fabric at 40°C.
What is the packaging made of?
The pens come in a Bio Plastic tub, which is an eco-friendly packaging material.
Can these pens be used for detailed drawing?
The 2.8mm tip is best suited for coloring and broader strokes. For very fine detail work, a pen with a smaller tip might be more appropriate.
How long will the pens last?
The nibs are described as long-lasting and super-resistant. Longevity also depends on usage and proper cap replacement after each use to prevent drying.
Troubleshooting
Pen not coloring or appears dry
Ensure the cap was properly secured after the last use. Try leaving the cap off for a few minutes to rehydrate the nib. If still dry, the ink may have evaporated.
Ink stain on clothing
Act quickly. Pre-treat the stain and wash the garment in a machine at 40°C using a standard program. For stubborn stains, repeat the process.
Nib appears damaged or bent
Reduce pressure when coloring. If the nib is significantly damaged, the pen's performance may be compromised.
Ink transfer to unintended surfaces
Be mindful of the surfaces you are working on. Use protective paper underneath your artwork. Clean any accidental marks immediately.
