Permanent Paint Marker, Fine Point [Set of 3]

I like these, they are a bit expensive but they work and last very well over time. The liquid flows a bit too easily even if you have taken a lot of time shaking them. Try it on something else before you put it on a proper surface but it endures pretty well when dry.

The pens are great. The color is a true black and they are perfect for the small details on my crafts. I recommend them.

Apparently not meant for windows. They don't write on a vertical surface like you would expect a Sharpie to do. More or less paint on a stick instead of a brush. I bought these to make vertical lines on our windows to keep birds from crashing into them. Guess I'll try something else. UPDATE: I tried again to use these pens to write on our windows. The first pen dried up after three vertical lines. The other two would not make a single mark. I expected much more from a Sharpie.

If you have not used these Fine Point Paint Markers [Set of 3] Color: White, here is an introduction to this handy pen. When they come they are usually tightly wrapped and sealed with a plastic cover. Cut around the removable lid and it comes right off with a pull. The contents needs to be shaken, like a paint spray can and when doing so you can hear the bead inside rattle. After a few shakes, don't despair if it doesn't mark. You need to push the tip until it unseats from its mounting seal. This will start a flow of ink onto (into) the tip and you may begin using the pen. It will mark on plastic, metal or most solid surfaces. Not really all that great for wood, but it will paint paper. They last through a pretty good amount of use and are permanent. Goo Gone will take them off. I ordered the White to mark voltage and amperages on my assortment of wall wart transformers I have accumulated, for easier identification. So far about 20 and they dried quickly. After that I had some sinkers, for fishing, of different weights, which are stamped into the bottom. I inked/painted these stamped numbers for easy reading in low light. Nice. In general, there are numerous uses for a white, black or colored use and I like them their versatility. I am glad I've discovered this paint marking pen, for too long I've just tried to use lesser tools for this.

I had bought previous sharpie oil-based markers to fix some dents on a steel traveling mug. And when my daughter's steel water bottle started to fade away. I ordered this pack due to the previously purchased package did not come with white. And it works great!!! I managed to color in hello kitty again. ***** TIP, when doing a project like this, you would want to press on the tip onto the surface for a short sequence. Because if you press down for more ink to come out, you will get a big glob, and it dries a little bit quicker. Resulting in bumpiness. If this happens, it’s better just to let it dry and do it again with a little bit of a big glob and spread it around with the tip of the marker.

I have used this brand and style of paint markers for many years, with great success and consistent experience and quality of ink/paint, as well as robustness of the applicator tip. I see many reviews here that claim the ink was dried up, or did not flow consistently, or various other purported defects. Those criticisms are unmistakeably from naive/new users who are unfamiliar with the conventional limitations of this product. Larger markers (with a larger applicator tip) of this brand and type are less susceptible to a fundamental characteristic of these paint markers: the flow can be interrupted from periods of disuse, any (perhaps unseen) contaminant/film on the surface to be painted, as well as the pressure of the user’s technique and the angle of attack. The finer/thinner the applicator tip, the greater the degree of these KNOWN limitations. Probably, anyone with experience in traditional India ink “dip-pens” or fountain pens is accustomed to the need to test-stroke a “nibbed” pen across a scrap piece of paper/surface in order to prime it. Also, the directions to initiate ink flow need to be repeated during the lifetime of the pen (that is, the directions may be misinterpreted to mean that the “setup” operation of pumping the tip is required only for the first use, but the fact is that I often repeat this exercise when starting each session). It’s a good product, but if you want the fine-line application that these provide, there are accommodations to be made to prime the product for each use.

Okay, so I've never used an oil based pen before. Be sure to read and follow the instructions so it will work. Shaking the capped pen a lot, then removing the cap and using something between your finger and the tip as you press down to let out the compressed air, and then use is a must. Otherwise you might be like me and want to simply throw it away as a lost cause. But once I figured it out, I've been using it on all kinds of plant labels (but really like it best on the metal labels and because it's a fine point so can fit more on the labels) in my home gardens and that of two professional gardens that I tend. Thus far they have been easy to use on the labels, easy to read, haven't faded and decent value. It's with all of this in mind that I can recommend this item.

First, a quick tip that I've found with these: leaving them stored in a pen cup CAP DOWN seems to keep them 'primed' and ready to write...most of the time...which leads me to my review... These markers are great and just what I need to write on dark surfaces. But many times when I go to use them, they will not write. I will shake the crap out of them for a couple minutes and press the tip repeatedly and leave it depressed for several seconds. Sometimes it will get going again, sometimes just for a few lines before it stops again. Sometimes it will just work. Sometimes I can not get it started after minutes of trying. The inconsistency and frustration has led me to look for more reliable alternatives. Going to try the Sharpie fine point silver. It's a classic marker that doesn't need shaking.

I use these to draw thin white lines 4 in apart onto my picture window in the living room to prevent birds colliding with my window. The pen needs a little shaking and priming before it works, then it works well using a 2x4 plank as a ruler. The lines stay put through rain and weather but need to be redrawn after window washing. However, this has been an effective and cost effective way to protect birds from window collisions for me.

Great for rock painting!!!

0 star. They were all dry. Can’t use them and can’t return them.

Nice
