Uni Posca Extra Fine Marker, White (PC-1M)

Love these Uni-Posca Paint Pens! I bought the travel case set with various colors and sizes of paint pens. The colors are so vibrant and look great on any kind of surface. I use them for just about everything! It’s acrylic paint in the pens and you can get super precise with all the various tips! any mistake you make, you can fix it easily by going over the area with any color. It makes painting way less intimidating! If you make a line mistake, it’s more than easy to correct. Just make sure to shake the markers for at-least a minute before each use so the paint will flow correctly from the tip!

Best paint markers ever!

I have used many different types of paint markers and they all have seemed to work well when I first open them. Unfortunately shortly after their first use, they either leak and make a mess of what I am working on or just don’t put out enough ink and they have to be thrown away. I have watched many videos online of sign making and saw the podcast brand used. I decided to try them out! All I have to say is wow! I went back to Michaels and used my coupon and bought another set with a different tip size. It makes my sign making much easier not to have to spend more time trying to get the ink on my board, and play around the with the pen to make it work properly! Posca had definitely helped to make my designs more enjoyable! Thank you POSCA!

Does the job with a few quirks.

I’ve used these markers a few times on designs and signs that I have created on wood panels, Mainly for outlining and small text or graphics when a brush isn’t practical. They do the job but have a few quirks one needs to watch out for. Occasionally they will drop a blob of paint and flow quickly, sometimes they will “flick” a fine spray when drawing and they are not the best for a second coat as the marker occasionally will remove paint from the previous coat and then cake and leave dry pieces. It’s best if you can use it for just one coat. I have used polycyclic spray over finished pieces with no issues.

Doubting my markers

I never thought it would be such a good marker. I was looking for a marker to write on black business cards and was actually looking for a different brand. One of the associates at Michael’s was very helpful and guided me and showed me these new markers; I said “ok I will give it a try”. I bought two thinking I will try one and if it doesn’t deliver, then I will return the other one unopened. Well, far beyond my expectations! I loved it ! We are using both and planning to buy some more for the rest of the office and other projects I have in mind.Thank you Michael’s!!! You guys rock!

Faulty pen nib

Have been using POSCA paint pens for years and I absolutely love them! I create a lot of intricate details in my artworks (usually achieved with POSCA pens). Unfortunately the black pen I received has a faulty nib, it keeps splintering as I draw and tiny fibres have been falling off. These fibres are getting caught under the nib and dragging paint in unwanted places. I can’t see the fibres until they fling away from my drawing line. It’s quite annoying, but I know POSCA pens are usually fantastic so haven’t given a lower rating as it’s likely just a fault of the pen I received (not a common issue).

Good but could be better.

They are great for finer lined projects, and adding dimension. However, you have to keep a little pressure on them / shake as they have a tendency to dry at the tip and spray a little. It’s usually manageable but something to be aware. The Mr series maybe a better fit if you’re not work on surfaces you can easily re-touch or if you’re more particular. This particular takes more go-overs to be noticeable.

Posca Black Paint Pens

I enjoy painting 'Kindness' Rocks and on the reverse side of the rock I usually add our Rock Painting facebook pageso need something durable to use. I had been using a waterproof Laundry marker, but find these often blurr whenthe sealer is applied. The POSCA pens are ideal. Perfect for what I needed.

Versatile paint pen, nice solid orange colour

I have been using POSCA paint pens for a few years now and they are incredibly versatile! I’ve had success using them on canvas, all types of paper, on resin (cured), on fabrics, on glass, over watercolours, on metals snd I’m sure there are plenty of other ways to use them that I am yet to discover. The pens basically draw like regular markers but keep their colour/opacity and can draw on a greater range of surfaces. You may need to seal the pen to ensure it doesn’t rub off or scratch, this really depends on the surface you apply it to. I think they may have improved the pen designs as these nibs were much nicer than the ones I purchased years ago, the nib is more precise (so creating intricate designs is much easier), the paint flows better and it’s easier to prep ... MoreI have been using POSCA paint pens for a few years now and they are incredibly versatile!

The pens take a small amount of prep to use for the first time which involves shaking the pens to get the little metal ball rolling, you press and hold the nib against a hard surface to get the paint flowing and then you are basically good to go. Pens can go dry over time and may simply require a few good shakes and to press the nib against a hard surface again, or you may need to remove the whole nib to clean it before it will work again.
