Supplied as a pack of twelve, they fit standard Markal no. 101 and no. 102 holders for controlled application and reduced hand fatigue. The formulation performs in a wide temperature span and is designed for high-visibility layout, inspection, and colour-coding tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Paintstik perform on rough or dirty surfaces?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe solid paint core is dense and durable, so it transfers reliably across textured, greasy, or wet materials where pens and liquid markers fail. Its body lays down a generous, opaque stroke that resists smearing and stands out under industrial lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarks through oil and light water contamination for clearer lines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOpaqueness hides substrate colour and texture for consistent visibility.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGood adherence to metal, concrete, plastic, and wood.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFluorescent pigment increases visibility in low-light and inspection settings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the fluorescent red show under black light and typical shop lighting?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the Paintstik’s fluorescent pigments react under ultraviolet light for a bright glow, while remaining highly visible under standard workshop and daylight conditions. That makes it useful for QC checks, night work, and marking inspection points that need quick identification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGlows under black light for easy UV inspections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-visibility colour under fluorescent and natural light.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConsistent appearance across varied lighting scenarios.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I use the Stick and holders for best results?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInsert the Paintstik core into a compatible Markal holder (no. 101 or 102) to stabilise the stick and control stroke width.
