Official Product Highlight
- Extra Fine 0.7mm Tip: Perfect for crisp, clean lines, detailed drawings, technical work, and illustrations – unmatched precision for fine detail work
- 48 Vibrant Colors: Rainbow spectrum of bright, quick-flowing, permanent colors that eliminate dullness and show up rich on any surface
- Revolutionary Pump-Valve System: Unique 0.7mm tip with optimal flow control – vary stroke pressure to create thin or thick lines; transparent barrel lets you see remaining ink level
- True Artist-Quality Acrylic: Highly pigmented, lightfast, waterproof, and permanent acrylic paint that dries quickly – no long waits for artwork to be ready
- Low-Odor & Safe: Water-based acrylic ink is xylene-free, solvent-free, and odor-free – use indoors without worrying about fumes
- Refillable Design: Transparent marker body allows for easy assessment of remaining ink; markers can be refilled to extend their life
- Multi-Surface Versatility: Works beautifully on wood, plaster, foam, walls, paper, terra cotta, canvas, fabric, ceramic, and glass
Art Technique Note: To prime a new marker (as shown in Grabie's video tutorial), pump the tip gently on a scrap surface until ink flows. Vary pressure for line variation – light pressure = 0.7mm fine line, heavier pressure = slightly thicker stroke. Store horizontally to keep the tip primed. These extra fine tips are ideal for journaling, mandalas, intricate patterns, and adding fine details to mixed media work. The transparent barrel is great for tracking ink levels so you never run out mid-project.
