Liquitex Professional Wide Paint Marker — Brilliant Purple 15mm | Opaque, Replaceable Nib

Liquitex Professional Wide Paint Marker in Brilliant Purple is a 15mm water-based acrylic marker engineered for bold, permanent, artist-grade coverage across almost any surface.

This paint marker pairs a proven ball-and-pump valve system with a wide, replaceable 15mm nib to deliver consistent flow, versatile line widths and highly pigmented colour that matches Liquitex’s paint spectrum. Formulated for compatibility with Liquitex Heavy Body, Soft Body and Spray Paint, the Brilliant Purple shade offers opaque, lightfast pigment ideal for studio work, mixed-media pieces, signage, murals and craft applications.

How does the 15mm nib adapt for different marks?

The flattened 15mm tip will produce a broad stroke when held flat and narrower lines when tilted or used on the edge, giving you multiple mark widths from one nib. Nibs are replaceable so you can maintain crisp edges and consistent performance over time.

• Line width: approximately 8–15mm depending on angle and pressure
• Replaceable nibs for long-term precision
• Ball-and-pump valve for steady paint flow without sputtering
• Use flat for fills, on edge for sharp outlines

Will this marker integrate with my existing Liquitex paints and varnishes?

Yes — the marker’s water-based acrylic formula is designed to be compatible with Liquitex Heavy Body, Soft Body and Spray Paint, and it responds well to Liquitex varnishes for a finished, bleed-resistant surface. This compatibility helps preserve colour consistency across media on mixed-media projects.

• Matches Liquitex colour spectrum for predictable results
• Works over and under Liquitex acrylics and sprays
• Varnishable for a durable, permanent finish
• Suitable for layering, glazing, and touch-ups

How lightfast and opaque is Brilliant Purple?

Brilliant Purple in this Professional line uses artist-grade pigments engineered for good permanence and opacity. It is labeled opaque with a lightfast rating that meets professional standards, giving dependable colour retention for art and display pieces.

• Opacity: Opaque for strong coverage
• Lightfastness: Rated II (Very Good) in the Liquitex system
• Uses high-quality pigments for stability over time

On which surfaces can I use this marker and how durable is the finish?

The water-based acrylic formulation accepts adhesion to many substrates, including canvas, paper, wood, metal, glass and primed surfaces. When sealed with a complementary Liquitex varnish, the finish becomes more resistant to abrasion and environmental exposure, helping maintain colour integrity and preventing bleed.

• Works on porous and nonporous surfaces when allowed to cure
• Durable, permanent mark after proper drying and varnishing
• Recommended to test on sample material before final application
• Compatible with mixed-media techniques and overpainting
