The ink is permanent on porous surfaces like paper and wood and removable from many non-porous surfaces such as glass and metal, making the pens useful in studios, classrooms, workshops, and for temporary decoration. Their opacity and metallic finish let designs show up clearly on dark and light backgrounds alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow thick are the PC-5M reversible tips, and what lines will they make?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe PC-5M reversible tip is designed to deliver a medium-width stroke that you can adjust by flipping the nib. Expect line widths in the range of approximately 1.8–2.5 mm depending on angle and pressure. This makes the marker suited for filling areas, outlining, and lettering with a consistent metallic sheen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTip type: reversible bullet\/medium for both controlled lines and broader fills\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTypical stroke width: about 1.8–2.5 mm depending on use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorks well for lettering, accents, and small to mid-size illustrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat surfaces can these silver markers be used on?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eposca PC-5M markers are formulated for use on over 50 surfaces, including porous and many non-porous materials. The water-based paint adheres permanently on porous substrates like cardboard, wood, and canvas, while it can be wiped or removed from many non-porous surfaces if not sealed. This flexibility makes them ideal for mixed-media work and temporary signage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePorous: paper, cardboard, canvas, wood — permanent when dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-porous: glass, metal, plastic, ceramic — often erasable before sealing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlso suitable for leather, fabric accents, and coated surfaces with proper testing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the silver ink perform in terms of opacity and drying?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe metallic silver formula is engineered to be vivid and opaque so it reads well on dark backgrounds. It dries quickly to minimize smudging and can be layered for stronger coverage or special effects. Because the ink is water-based, cleanup is simple while the marker is wet, and the finished result resists fading when used as recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOpaque metallic pigment for good contrast on dark and light surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuick-drying finish reduces smearing during use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLayerable for increased coverage or dimensional metallic effects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow should I store and use these markers for best results?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStore posca markers horizontally and recap tightly after each use to prevent drying. Shake each marker well with the cap on to mix the metallic pigment, then press the nib down on scrap paper until paint flows. For long-term adhesion on non-porous surfaces, consider applying a compatible clear sealant after the ink fully dries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStorage: horizontal to maintain even ink distribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eActivation: shake then depress tip until flow begins\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFinishing: seal on non-porous surfaces if permanence is required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this for?
