FAQs

Is the ink waterproof?

The ink is designed to be permanent and resistant to water, but extreme or prolonged exposure may affect its integrity depending on the surface.

Can this marker be used on fabric?

While it can write on fabric, the permanence and resistance to washing will vary greatly depending on the fabric type and weave. Test on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the line width of the bullet tip?

The bullet tip provides a line width between 4.00mm and 4.55mm.

How long does the ink typically last?

With the cap properly replaced after each use and stored correctly, the marker should last for a significant period. Actual lifespan depends on usage frequency and surface types.

Can this marker be used for fine art or detailed drawing?

Due to its bullet tip shape and line width, it is best suited for general writing, labeling, and bold marking rather than highly detailed or intricate artwork.

Will the ink fade in sunlight?

The ink is formulated for permanence. While designed to resist fading, prolonged exposure to intense UV light may cause some gradual fading over time.

Troubleshooting

Marker not writing or ink flow is weak.

Ensure the cap was replaced properly after the last use. Try scribbling on a test surface for a few moments to reactivate ink flow. Store the marker tip-down.

Ink smudging shortly after application.

Allow more drying time for the ink to set, especially on non-porous surfaces. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before marking.

Tip appears damaged or frayed.

Permanent marker tips can wear down with heavy use on rough surfaces. If the tip is significantly damaged, the marker may need to be replaced.
