Markal Quik Stik solid paint marker, Fluorescent Orange 12-pack — twist-up, fast-drying, weather-resistant

Markal Quik Stik is a twist-up, solid paint marker that leaves a fast-drying, weather-resistant fluorescent orange mark on almost any surface.

Designed for industrial, construction, hobby, and everyday use, the Markal 61043 Quik Stik delivers bright, durable paint in a convenient solid-stick format. Its twist-up holder and snap-on airtight cap prevent mess and extend shelf life, while the formulation dries quickly and resists UV and weathering. The marker performs from -18°C to 60°C (0°F to 140°F) and will mark metal, glass, plastic, wood, cardboard, paper and many other substrates—wet or dry.

How quickly will the fluorescent orange mark dry and hold up outdoors?

The Quik Stik paint dries to the touch in about 5–7 minutes under normal conditions and forms a weather-resistant line that tolerates outdoor exposure. UV resistance helps preserve colour intensity, while the solid stick format resists smearing once dry.

• Fast-drying: typically 5–7 minutes to touch-dry
• UV- and weather-resistant formulation for longer outdoor life
• Works across temperature range -18°C to 60°C

What surfaces and conditions will this marker work on?

Quik Stik is formulated to mark virtually any surface, including wet, smooth, rough or hot materials. It reliably writes on metal, glass, plastics, wood, cardboard and painted surfaces, making it suitable for construction, fabrication, maintenance, and creative projects.

• Effective on metal, glass, plastic, wood, cardboard and paper
• Performance on wet or rough textures and at elevated surface temperatures
• Portable solid stick avoids dripping and splatter common with liquid paints

How does the twist-up design and cap protect the product in the field?

The Quik Stik’s plastic twist-up holder advances and retracts the paint stick smoothly, preventing breakage and unnecessary exposure. The snap-on airtight cap locks in place to keep the paint fresh and stop residue from transferring to pockets or toolboxes.

• Turn-to-advance stick for controlled application and retraction for storage
• Durable outer shell shields the stick from impact and abrasion
• Airtight cap prevents drying and keeps surroundings clean

How do I use and store these solid paint markers for best results?

Use a firm, steady pressure for consistent lines; retract between uses and replace the cap immediately to maintain freshness. Store markers horizontally or upright in a dry place away from extreme heat to preserve performance and prevent deformation.

• Advance a small amount before marking; don’t over-extend the stick
• Snap cap on after use; store at room temperature when possible
• Pack of 12 ensures spare markers for busy jobs or different crews

Who is this for: The Markal 61043 Quik Stik fluorescent orange pack is ideal for tradespeople, surveyors, construction crews, maintenance teams, fabricators, landscapers, and hobbyists who need visible, long-lasting marks on diverse materials.
