Questions & Answers

Is it possible to use the white on a chalkboard?

Yes, but it'd be extremely difficult to remove. Smooth surfaces, such as glass, are ideal for using a grease pencil. Mine sits on top of my Rhinolin desk, saves on scratch paper, and is erased with a tissue.

Is it possible to cover these with paint on glass?

A grease pencil is a type of pencil that is used to remove grease from a surface. It will write on glass, ceramics, and other porous surfaces; however, if you try to paint OVER it, it will act as a resist, and your paint will most likely not stick to the pencil marks because it is an oily substance.

Will a mark I make on a painted aluminum boat for graphic decals wipe off once I've finished aligning the decals?

Markings from grease pencils can be removed from non-stick surfaces. With a magic eraser pad, you can easily erase textured surfaces, and lightly textured surfaces are no problem. The paper wrapping on these China markers, on the other hand, is a pain. Listo Marking Pencil is a better option.

Is this something that can be applied to the skin?

This would not work on skin, in my opinion. It isn't intended for use on the skin. The purpose of this pencil is to write on non-porous surfaces. surfaces that are porous For instance, suppose you wanted to handwrite a price on a glazed piece of pottery or a glass item and then wipe it away.

Grease pencils are useful in a number of situations around the house
5/5

I bought this set of grease pencils to use for writing plant names on plastic plant markers that I use to separate herbs and tomato plants in my container gardens. Because my plastic plant markers were bright blue, I wrote on them with a black grease pencil. The pencil was extremely effective and stood out against the blue background. The words were not washed away by rain or water, nor did they fade. It performed admirably, and I was extremely pleased with it. br>br>In the end, I decided to use the white grease pencil to hang artwork in my home. When you're hanging things by yourself, it can be difficult to keep them straight. Drawing small marks on the wall to save where you have determined the artwork edges should go can help keep artwork straight. Unfortunately, scribbling such notes on the wall with a pen or pencil can irritate landlords and cost you money from your security deposit when you move out. The white grease pencil, on the other hand, allowed me to make the useful marks while keeping my apartment walls looking nice, as the marks are barely visible unless you look very closely; it's a great product for that purpose.

They perform admirably
5/5

These are excellent for a wide range of applications. For plant labels, I primarily use black. They write on anything and everything. The leads are thick and stick well to the surface. However, using white scrubber sponges, it is also simple to remove. When it comes to labeling dark surfaces, the white grease pen is ideal.

It works, but it's a pain to "sharpen
3/5

" It's all right. When the tip wears down, I have a lot of difficulty peeling the paper. In fact, I've resorted to cutting the paper with a box cutter. The paper peel appears to be glued to its own surface. The china marker, on the other hand, works well for labeling glass jars and silicone or plastic lids. To remove the markings on the lids, I simply use a small amount of olive oil or whatever cooking oil I have on hand and leave it on the marking for about an hour, or even less if I'm in a hurry to reuse the lid. With a paper towel or a napkin, the mark can be easily removed.

It's great for labeling food containers at home! Before putting tupperware in the fridge, I bought some stickers to label it with dates
5/5

I bought a white/black combo pack, so one of the colors will inevitably show up on whatever we're trying to write on. Doesn't write on everything, but he does write on the majority of it! Cleaning up is a breeze, though I did have some issues with the textured lids on my glass containers. Only about 90% of the people were able to get away. However, I don't think it's a big deal. That spot may change color over time, and we can then switch to the opposite color.

5/5

This type of pencil had been seen being used to pick up rhinestones, which is why I bought it. For that purpose, it is ideal. I have yet to put it to use for writing.
