Questions & Answers

Is this material stable enough to be used for garden markers in direct sunlight? How far would they go in smearing?

You can count on them to hold up well. If you don't want it to stain, let it dry for a few minutes As far as oil paint goes, it's fine. As soon as it dries, it will not smear and will last for a long time.

There was an empty envelope in my mailbox. In the aftermath of sending emails to both the seller and the reviewer, I was extremely frustrated not to receive an answer. Are you in need of a ?

To contact and deal directly with Amazon, I would do so

The packaging indicates that it is AP sealed and that it is acmi approved. Is the product safe for use by children?

They would not be used by children under my supervision.

What kind of oil-based markers do these use?

In the case of paint markers, oil-based is the default (unless it says water-based), but Sharpies are made of oil, and regular Sharpies are alcohol.

Selected User Reviews For Sharpie - Fine Point Paint Marker [Set of 3], Black, Permanent, Quick drying

This is not the kind of pen you are interested in
3/5

Changing the color of a very small strip of metal was the only thing I needed to do. A black pen was the one I chose after I searched for hours. For about a decade, I had to repeatedly plunge the plunger before I even started seeing paint. I agree with you that this must be a medium-sized point. The paint applied thick, lumpy, and glossy, which makes me think it must be medium in size. This product ruined my project, my clothes, my table, etc. therefore, I don't recommend it. When the plunger just fell out of the pen, it ruined my project, my clothes, and my table.

The product is versatile and well-suited to its intended use
5/5

do an excellent job in that regard. This paint seems to hold up very well, and due to the fine points they produce a nice, legible result. It's too much- This is a thick and non-sticky sheet There's smeary writing on the page. Also, I have used them on a garage sale sign and a piece of In addition to glass (one of Sharpie's suggested uses) I intend to use them on wood as well. Given that it is actually paint, I don't see why it could not be used in any way We will post updates on items that need to be painted black. The pens have a little ball inside them (probably a ball) It looks like balls inside a spray can. Paint cans are a great way to decorate! When you shake the pen briefly to get ready to use it, you can both hear and feel how it shakes. It takes time for the paint to get to the tip of the paint pen, but as soon as you accomplish that, and prime it your first time (by repeatedly pushing the tip against a surface), the paint pen "writes" Paint pens and small glass bottles with touch-sensitive lids make painting so much easier than tiny bottles with touch-sensitive lids in many applications The cap is attached to brushes with an up style.

My order was just as I wanted it
5/5

Despite the long turn-around time, I received the product safely and in great condition. The markers were all packed individually and there seems to have been no damage. One of the three markers has only been opened so far, but it has not given me any cause You have to "prime" the sharpie marker before each and every use, so even the first time for me, I needed to do it. You will need to shake your marker as you would spray paint, and again your going to need to shake it for a while the first time you use it. When you shake between shakings you will notice how the white tip slowly begins to fill with color. Glen fly can be used to see if any paint comes out of your marker by pushing down the tip on a scrap piece of paper. If the marker is fully filled, there should be no problem. If you are using the marker for an extended period of time, you will need to shake it again periodically. When shaking, always put the cap back on to avoid wasting any fluid. Also, you should keep a scrap piece of paper on hand to blot your marker before using it on your project there will be excess paint and this will prevent large blotches from spilling. Please note that this is not the same size as a standard ultra fine point sharpie. It is smaller than the tip of an original sharpie fine-tip paint marker, though still much smaller than the tip of a medium point Sharpie I felt that the product worked pretty well (although I would have preferred if I had found a fine tip in oil based black, it would have worked a lot better for my project) and I'll be getting more when I run out of these. There is no reason to complain about the price I paid just under $9 for all three and I got free shipping, which took 11 days from the time I The most I'd spend if I could locate them in a local store would be about $13 each, but I'd pay between $20 and $35 if bought online from Michaels, Hobby Lobby, etc. If you don't receive a discount, you will pay $13 plus $7+ for shipping.

The fine line between fine and fine is not a fine line
3/5

A lot of smearing occurs Compared to Artline Markers, this is inferior. Since sharpies have been on the market for decades, we have all found them to last longer and be more efficient For the most part, "fine point" paint markers have worked well inside, but they were recommended for garden and plant labels, and they have been found to be substandard. They write poorly and unevenly, the point is not fine, and they do not look professional. I hate the wide, streaky lettering, it takes longer to dry than other brands, smears and flows In fact, we have replaced all the Sharpie Paint Markers with more of the Artline Paint Markers, which we've been using on plant labels. It may be that they work well for certain things, but not for writing clearly or even printing in a small area.

Please do not use a Sharpie mug for this! The goal was to make a DIY sharpie mug out of these
3/5

My research included finding out how to make the ink remain on the mug, bake times, and how long to bake them. The methods I tried for drying, baking, and washing were about ten different ones. Each time the ink washed off or flaked badly after being washed for the first time. The fact that I had to find a replacement was a frustration as I was making Christmas gifts for family and friends. I found these pens to be very good for writing, they aren't super fine tipped, but they are finer than typical sharpies.

It is easy to paint letters with this! The adhesive sheets worked well for making a solid straight outline for my letters before I filled them in with paint for an outdoor hospital sign project
4/5

It takes some shaking every so often to keep the paint flowing but it was very easy to use and I was able to complete six boards of letters with only two.

I appreciate it, but let me give you a These were purchased to have our wedding guests sign our stained board before our event
5/5

I am happy I opened them up ahead of time because they do need to be shaken and things like that before hand. I had to remove the white tip and then reapply it. Shaking them again, I did so. I love the writing on the board, it looks so fresh and great!.

Cotton canvas that has not been bleached works great for this
5/5

Free acrylic titanium gesso] canvas and THEY ARE GREAT! was using Sharpie markers that had to be layered just to get a solid line, and it was not crisp to begin with. This paint pen makes a drastic difference compared to my old brushes - The fact that you can purchase in various colors and points means less time, less effort, less waste. I highly recommend it.
