Not all markers are permanent. Some are designed to be temporary, while others are meant to be permanent. The type of marker you use will depend on the project you're working on and your personal preference.
Yes, you can color with permanent markers. They are great for coloring in large areas and for adding bold colors to your project.
Permanent markers are designed to be long-lasting, but how long do they actually last? The answer depends on the type of marker and the surface it's used on. Some permanent markers will fade over time when exposed to sunlight or other UV light sources. Others may start to fade after a few years, even when stored in a dark place. Permanent markers are also more likely to fade on absorbent surfaces like paper or cloth. On non-absorbent surfaces like metal or glass, permanent markers will last much longer. So, while permanent markers

I've always adored Sharpies, especially the fine and ultra-fine point varieties. On some surfaces, the writing or marking you make needs to be left to dry for a relatively short period of time because else you risk smearing it and being unable to remove the smeared or screwed up area. On other surfaces, however, it sets immediately. In either case, once it's decided, it stays decided. I have items that I scribbled on with a Sharpie many years, if not decades ago that are still in excellent condition or may just show minor signs of wear. Naturally, I'm not referring to simple writing on paper, in which case it goes without saying that. However, I'm referring to materials like rubber or specific kinds of plastic that are difficult or impossible to write on with "normal" pens at all. These materials were simple to use a Sharpie on, and whatever I wrote or drew on them stayed there for as long as I'd ever need (probably until after I die, after decades of being very useful and dependable!).I haven't had any of these spill on me either, which is something I've experienced with several regular ink pens over the years, occasionally destroying items like a shirt I really liked. I'm glad to announce that no Sharpie has ever done that to me. These were also placed in suitcases for longer international trips and longer flights within the country when the flying altitude was rather high and, at least occasionally, I presumed the baggage compartments were not pressurized. However, they have consistently endured admirably, never even rupturing or leaking. Maybe I've just been fortunate, but if so, I've been fortunate a lot, and I feel very safe using Sharpie products. I also feel that if any ink pen is going to write on a surface (without being a "paint" type pen that's much more expensive and typically unnecessary), then these will do the job, and they last long enough to make me feel like I got my money's worth.Finally, it's important to remember that in this situation, "name brand" status can really make a difference—and for a very, very small amount of money (it's not like you're purchasing a Rolex when you spend a few cents more on Sharpies than a budget brand!). Even though I've never brought up this aspect in a review of anything before, I thought it was important to note here because it may be simple to overlook if you're seeking for a deal on a cheap item like markers. When it comes to markers, it's possible that part of the reason is the fact that you can buy the greatest name-brand product for relatively little money. The Sharpie is most commonly used because it has a long history of being recognized in a variety of professions as THE (and actually THE ONLY) "professional" marker, one that ALL TRUE PROS in that particular field use without fail. In actuality, no one in my previous area of work ever requested a marker. Everyone always just said, "Hey, do you have a Sharpie?" regardless of the firm or client involved or where we were on a cross-country trip (at least in the USA, but possibly elsewhere as well; I'm just not prepared to say for sure what the situation is in other countries). or "I'd like a Sharpie, thanks." It just goes to illustrate how much the accepted standard is what jumps out when it is broken. Sharpie was used in place of the word "marker" even though it was the most natural and typical thing to say. That example, if someone requests a Sharpie (i.e., a marker) and you give them anything else, they WILL notice that it isn't the typical, premium marker they were hoping for.I'm aware that Sharpies are the industry standard, however the job I had required me to work in production and/or tour management for a variety of popular music genres (e.g., various types of "rock," pop, etc.). Working in a number of music industry professions, I frequently encountered situations when I had to be able to offer a musician (artist) a marker so they could use it to sign a fan's request for an autograph on a wide range of possible surfaces. Sharpies were always well-stocked in the production case (and if I hadn't, someone else would have inevitably and only used Sharpies), not only because they could do the job and do it well no matter what unusual items fans wanted signed or what different surfaces the production crew might need to write on, but also because, although it's unpopular to admit it, it was the right thing to do.Fine point is the industry standard for autographs and marking objects like boxes, btw. This was done both for the benefit of the fans and to ensure that our business partners, such as the local production companies (if I were touring) or the touring crew (if I was doing local production), knew they were working with professionals. Like anyone who takes their career, the careers of those they work with, and the success of their organization seriously, I'm sure you want to be seen as a pro for a variety of reasons, including letting those with whom you do business, your customers/clients, those who you buy from, etc. feel confident that working with you will put them in contact with true pros who are at the top of their game and offering the best products or services available in your field. When people observe you employing the industry's best tools—in this case, Sharpies for permanent markers—it inspires confidence in them. Any other brand simply does not convey the message "I'm a pro" way a Sharpie does. Even worse, it may give the impression that you are a "want tobe," someone who is merely inexperienced in their field and ignorant of how things work, or even a failure, who is more concerned with saving a pitiful sum of money or cents than with delivering the highest quality possible of whatever it is you offer. Of course, when it comes to this problem, it's not even about the pens. But something as seemingly unimportant (but actually not) as the type of marker you use can have an impact on the impression you project about yourself. I don't think that is true regardless of the paper or staples brand you use. I'm not arguing that everything is this important. However, Sharpies have long been the standard marker among professionals, and perhaps in your industry as well, for whatever reason. As strange as it sounds to hear myself write these words, I don't normally think this way, and I wouldn't say this about most things I'd use in my business activities. However, the way you present yourself and your company to anyone who sees that pen—even if you aren't actually using it—can translate into more than enough additional money you make as a result of being perceived as a dependable pro as you could possibly save by purchasing any other brand.But it's also true that, in my experience, Sharpies are just as excellent as or better than any other marker I've ever used (and I have occasionally used other brands of markers that other people gave me to use). "Image" shouldn't matter in this situation; if you simply want the best, most dependable permanent marker available, you'd get a Sharpie anyhow.And just to clarify, I have no financial interest in the Sharpie firm, if that's what they're called, nor do I have any other personal reasons for suggesting these pens.

CORRECTION: I changed to 5 stars since, unlike the first marker I used, my issue below regarding the tight cap definitely DOES NOT apply to ALL of these markers. Today I had the thought that the one I had been using might be a "LEMON," and sure enough, it was. In order to be fair, I'm repeating my evaluation because I didn't test all 11 of the additional markers, only 3 or 4. None of those tests revealed any issues.The hue is a deep, vivid crimson that spreads easily. I appreciate that if you desire a thinner line, you may write with the pointy tip. Cap quickly and securely latches back on to prevent drying out the ink. However, the OVAL SHAPE OF THE FIRST ONE I USED MAKES IT HARD TO REMOVE THE CAP. I was cautious when removing the cap since I didn't want to inadvertently paint PERMANENT red ink onto my hand or shirt as it suddenly popped out, which was annoying and took 5–6 seconds. Even though I have strong hands, I believe the plastic cap's slickness is to blame (maybe some TEXTURE would help?). mixed with the SHAPE of the cap, which is ALL CURVED with extremely smooth contours, makes it HARD TO GET A GOOD GRIP (maybe modify the OUTSIDE cap curves to add an angle or two?).Sharpies can write on practically anything, but use caution when using them on surfaces that are not absorbent.I put this one on a plastic bag and it took the ink several minutes to dry (it usually dries very quickly), so the wet ink moved to another surface and ruined it. Therefore, wait until it has had plenty of time to dry before placing it on or adjacent to anything that you don't want any ink on.

I need a few of those Sharpies, please. Last week, my sister questioned me. "Definitely NOT!" I replied angrily. She retorted, "What are you going to do with 24 Sharpies?" "I'm not sure. Just realize that none of them are yours to possess.That was a genuine conversation, indeed. I am a hoarder of pens and markers and enjoy having a variety of writing tools. I recently purchased the 24-pack of Sharpie Color Burst Permanent Markers, and I adore the hues. They are permanent and bold, which I adore. They haven't even begun to dry out, yet I hardly ever use them. I merely enjoy having them. I've started using them to name various objects, and I've even used them to color a few little pictures in an adult coloring book. I intend to use them to keep a journal, but they usually only let me use one side of the paper. Although they don't go through, they nonetheless leave a mark.When you want beautiful, lasting colors, these are fantastic for crafts, coloring, school projects, creating posters, identifying various products, and pretty much anything else. It takes a very long time for the ink to fade. Even fabric can be treated with them.Given that my sister and I are in our 50s and no longer quarrel like teens, I felt horrible that I wouldn't share with her, so I purchased her a complete set. She won't approach mine in that case. Ha! For 24 Sharpies that last a long time and have gorgeous colors, the cost is excellent.

I purchased the Sharpie Pro King Size ink pen to label boxes, tools, and to remove shipping labels. Compared to the Pro Chisel and the Pro Magnum, I think this Sharpie is the most adaptable. With this marker, you can write both fine and thick letters on any surface.The King Size marking is a little larger than your typical size. The marker is made of aluminum with a plastic top, increasing its toughness. This marker might dent if you tread on it, but it won't likely break as a plastic one would. The only drawback is that, if used in cold weather, aluminum will get cooler than plastic and, in my opinion, become more slick when wet or oily. However, the finish is quite smooth when it is dry. What I appreciate is that because it is sparkly, if you were using this outside and dropped it, you could readily see it.The Sharpie Pro King Size is made with a flat bottom so you can stand it up on its end. If you are careful, you may write as thinly as 1/16 of an inch and as thickly as 1/4 of an inch. In contrast to the Pro chisel tip, which has a finer and more precise chisel tip, the Pro King Size chisel tip looks like a typical felt tip marker. Nice and dark ink is used. It effectively conceals letters and other objects. I did have trouble getting the ink to write on wet objects, but it did perform better on wet porous materials than wet non-porous ones. For optimum results, wipe off any extra moisture from the object you want to label. Both dry and wet applications of the ink result in rapid drying. Even though I tried to rub the ink off of glass and plastic, it is still durable.My preferred chisel tip size is the Sharpie Pro King Size. In addition to blacking out sensitive material, it can be used to write notes or mark items in thick or thin type. I took away a star because I was dissatisfied with the performance on damp surfaces. What you would anticipate from a permanent marker in terms of size, shape, and performance. If you require greater coverage, I advise purchasing the Sharpie Pro Magnum.[Photos: #1 displays the thickest and thinnest writing the Sharpie Pro King Size is capable of producing, #2 contrasts the thickest writing produced by the Sharpie Pro Chisel, Sharpie Pro King Size, and Sharpie Pro Magnum, #3 compares the sizes of the three Sharpie Pro markers, and #4 displays the size and shape variations between the three Sharpie Pro Markers writing tips (Left:Magnum; Middle:King Size; Right: Chisel Tip)

The pens are fantastic. So great in fact that as soon as my wife and daughter arrived, they took them, leaving me with nothing. Once again, I am broke, sad, and impoverished. I hope to try buying another bundle of these pens again someday, but this time I'll be much more sneaky about it. Sincerily, a disclaimer should have been included in the product description. I won't be angry with them for it.

For my needs, these have taken the place of "Industrial" Sharpies. In the past, "Industrial" was UV resistant and excellent for garden tags, but about a year ago, I discovered that my most recent purchases were fading quite quickly. Then they released "Extreme" and boasted about its UV resistance, which made me carefully examine the label of the "Industrial" sharpies and notice that they had been reformulated. For outdoor use, I so far like the "Extreme" ones... If my plant tags have faded, I'll let you know in a year and update this post.Even after two years, I still choose these for outdoor use. Labels that have been written on vinyl window blind pieces outside in the sun are still legible. They also receive favorable remarks from other gardeners (I buy in bulk and offer them at our swaps). The silver metallic Sharpie pens are also excellent for writing on dark surfaces, such as plastic nursery pots, I should add. After a year, the silver holds up fairly well, and two to three years later, you can still see the silver.

Everything in this set is as you would anticipate. Most individuals certainly wouldn't require as many Sharpie colors, but hey, color makes everything better! My daughter was working on a craft project where she created and painted a cup, so I ordered these. She even completed one as part of a group project, but she didn't quite seal it so most of the colors peeled off. She went back and rebuilt her cup now that we had all the colors we could possibly desire. She corrected a misspelled word from the previous attempt, making it even better this time. So far, the color has persisted and the second time has proven to be the charm.The markers have a typical fine tip; it's neither very thick nor thin; just typical. The correct caps were even on the right colors, and they all functioned as you would expect them to. That might not seem like a big thing to some of you, but I thought I'd mention it nonetheless.

I am devoted to Sharpies. They are used in my artwork, which consists primarily of pen and pencil drawings. I use these pens with ultra-fine points since I perform a lot of minute detail work. With the exception of these limited-edition 24 packs that they occasionally release, Sharpie has good color consistency. The "80's Glam Color" applied to this particular order. For want of a better term, when they release these specialized series, they essentially give you nineteen of the standard pen colors while exchanging five of those colors for five brand-new color introductions. The speciality colors for the "80's Glam Color" series are as follows:- Jet Set Jade, Power Pink, Racy Red, Super Sonic Yellow, and Brilliant Dove.I've simply been using Sharpies because that's how I started out. I still have a few complaints with the Sharpie brand. I wish they would either label or code the colors on their pens. Because some of the colors are so similar as you go between pen types (for example, from fine point to ultra-fine point), you cannot utilize the cap's color to match colors. You have to use a scrap of paper to make sure you are choosing the exact matching hue because there is neither a name nor a number. This causes you to look away from the artwork you are creating. Additionally, I would have liked to see a level of pens smaller than the ultra-fine point added. There is still a lot of ink on the paper from the ultra-fine point. The ultra-fine tip pen will puddle if you let it sit still for even a brief period of time. Actually, they are only useful for drawing because they easily bleed through ordinary college rule paper.

I recently posted a review on a power strip on Amazon with an image attached. An understanding Amazon user recognized from the image that I had labeled my numerous cords plugged into the powerstrip using Kableflags KFA001 Cable Identification Tags (DIY Blank Pack). He suggested that I name my power bricks with this item instead. Brilliant. Although I still use Kableflags for cords without power bricks, these markers are fantastic for those that do (as Kableflags, while excellent, CAN occasionally migrate up power cords or get flipped around, making them harder to find/read). So, I'd like to thank the kind reviewer who got in touch with me. They're excellent.

To begin with, this Product is excellent for the price you pay, to be quite honest. Permanent markers come in 24 distinct colors and are half the price of name brands.99% of the time, the colors are brilliant and accurate.The hot pink and light brown were the only colors were I struggled with color accuracy. The colored marker caps didn't appear to show those two colors. The hot pink was acceptable, but the light brown was so faded out that it practically gave off a grayish impression to me. The benefits, in my opinion, outweigh the drawbacks.In comparison to Sharpie, it dries quickly and smears less, which I appreciate. In comparison to the sharpie, which is still preferable when trying to scratch it off plastic, it can still be removed off plastic with ease.For reference, I also created a color swatch on sketch paper.
A permanent marker is a pen that is used to write on surfaces that are not easily erased. The ink in a permanent marker is usually made of pigments that are insoluble in water and other solvents, making it difficult to remove.
Yes, permanent marker is waterproof.
A marker is a writing implement used to produce a visible mark on a surface. There are a variety of different types of markers, each with their own uses. Permanent markers are designed to write on surfaces like glass or metal, and can be difficult to remove. These are often used for labeling or writing in places where the mark needs to be long-lasting. Dry-erase markers are made for writing on whiteboards or other non-porous surfaces. The ink from these markers can be easily erased with a dry cloth or eraser. Chalk
There are three types of markers: permanent, semi-permanent, and temporary. Permanent markers are used for writing on non-porous surfaces such as glass, metal, and plastic. Semi-permanent markers are used for writing on porous surfaces such as paper and cardboard. Temporary markers are used for writing on surfaces that will be erased or removed, such as whiteboards and chalkboards.
A marker pen, also known as a felt-tip pen, is a pen with a tip made of felt. The ink is generally waterproof and is quick-drying. Marker pens are available in various colors, widths, and tip sizes. The most common type of marker pen is the permanent marker, which is used for writing on hard surfaces such as glass, metal, and plastic. Permanent markers are available in a variety of colors, but the most common color is black. Another type of marker pen is the whiteboard marker, which is used for writing
