Usage
The Uni POSCA PC-5M paint markers are designed for creative work on a wide variety of surfaces, including paper, wood, glass, metal, plastic, and fabric. Ideal for art projects, crafts, and customization tasks in studios or at home.
Advantages
- Water-based pigment ink is non-toxic, odorless, lightfast and water-resistant when dry[2][5].
- Medium bullet tip (1.8–2.5 mm) enables both precise lines and solid colouring on diverse surfaces[1].
- Works on more than 50 materials including porous and non-porous media such as stone or plastic[5][1].
- The reversible tip extends the marker’s lifespan by allowing cleaning or replacement[1].
- Pigment dries quickly; colors are mixable and layerable without smudging—a minor limitation is that marks can be removed from some sealed surfaces[2].
Specifications
- Design features a black barrel with a rounded bullet tip made from durable fiber; paint is acrylic-based with water as the solvent.
- The ink is acid-free and xylene-free; conforms to safety standards for educational use in schools or homes[2].
- Nip size: Medium (1.8–2.5 mm). Pack contains an assortment of sixteen colors (including metallics and fluorescents). Marker dimensions per piece: approximately height 1.54 in (39 mm), width 0.81 lb for full pack of sixteen markers.
- Main differentiators: Reversible tip system for extended use; suitable for both indoor art pieces and weather-exposed signage due to high opacity pigmentation; removable marks on non-porous surfaces like glass allow temporary decoration.
How it works
Shake the marker vigorously before use to remix pigments inside the airtight barrel. Press down the nib several times until paint flows evenly into the tip—then write or draw directly onto your surface of choice.
