Marabu Permanent Markers - 24 Fine & Ultra Fine Point Permanent Markers for Artists and Everyday Use - Dual Tip

This is my third time purchasing these markers. They work very well and last.

This is the 3rd and best brand of alcohol markers I've bought. They don't run like the other's and the super fine tip is a game changer.

I was looking for alcohol markers that were fine-tipped when I found these. They work great and have great coloring. If you are looking for alcohol markers that are fine tipped then I would highly recommend these.

These markers have incredibly stiff lids/caps, and one completely broke apart (like pulled the ink center out with the cap) so I had to throw it away. It is a great idea for a marker set, and if you can get them apart they are great tip thicknesses for hand lettering, but it's a workout to use them!

There are enough colors in this box to do touch ups on our ceramic planters.

Easy to use. Bold colors.

I just love stationery supplies (pretty paper, pens, markers, etc.). I could not resist this set of markers. This is a good set. I like that you get twenty-four markers. They arrive in a small box with twelve markers right side up and the other twelve upside down. The best way to get the markers out of the box is to dump them out and then store them in something else (a nice pencil case perhaps). I like that the markers are dual point. I get a fine point at one end and a broader tip at the other. I can write or color with these markers. They can be used for fine writing or making a poster. The colors are bright and match the cap color. They write very well. I have not had any problems with ink output except on Light Blue marker (it arrived in a dry condition). The ink dries quickly on surfaces, so you do not have to worry about smearing. The ink is waterproof. The caps have a clip on them which comes in handy at times. The caps on the broad tip end are hard to get on and off. I have to pull very hard to get them off (which is hard if you have arthritis). I could not get the cap off one marker. The markers are comfortable in my hand. They do not have a strong odor (a plus in my book). This is a great set of markers at a good price.

Alcohol ink markers are not the same as regular permanent markers--they are much more versatile. They ARE SUPPOSED to respond a little differently and can be used in many ways that regular markers cannot. Marabu makes an EXCELLENT line of alcohol inks and if you’re interested in alcohol ink markers, I highly recommend these.What you should know:• Alcohol markers are permanent BUT (cool trick), they can be “erased” if you make a mistake: dip a small cotton or sponge swab in rubbing alcohol and carefully dab the mark you want to remove. Make sure you don’t drip alcohol onto the painted/drawn surface and keep away from anything you want to keep. And only try this if you marked on non-porous surfaces that haven’t absorbed the ink into its fibers.• Alcohol ink works best on non-porous surfaces like Yupo paper, glass, thick acrylic paints, resin, and surfaces that do not absorb. Paper, canvas, and wood will absorb alcohol ink, so you would need to prep the surface. If using on paper, opt for heavy, thick watercolor paper.• Since these markers can be blended, you can create the color you want. And you don’t need to purchase huge sets of every color or buy a new set just because you run out of a specific color. These allow flexibility to create multiple palettes of additional colors, shades, and tones using a smaller set of markers. Alcohol markers can be blended with other media like alcohol inks to mix colors and create other effects.• Alcohol ink dries quickly but the markers don’t really dry out. If the alcohol evaporates from the makers, just dip them in household rubbing alcohol and wipe off any excess so it won’t drip. Just keep the markers well sealed. I keep mine capped and inside an air-tight container.****** I rely on unbiased customer reviews for my own purchases, so my reviews are always honest and fair. I hope it helps! ******
