1. Multi-Surface Versatility
POSCA markers are famous for their water-based pigment ink that adheres perfectly to almost any material. This isn't just a felt-tip pen – it's a creative powerhouse:
- Porous Surfaces: On paper, cardboard, and wood, the ink is absorbed and becomes permanent.
- Non-Porous Surfaces: On glass, metal, plastic, and ceramics, the design can be fixed with varnish or wiped away with a damp cloth if the surface is not heat-treated.
- Textiles: Excellent for decorating clothes (ironing on the reverse side is recommended for fixing).
2. Medium Tip for Precision Work
The PC-5M model features a 1.8–2.5mm bullet tip, the most popular choice in the entire POSCA range. This marker pen allows for:
- Outlining: Drawing clear, medium-width lines.
- Coloring: Evenly filling small to medium areas without streaks.
- Durability: The tip is sturdy and holds its shape even under pressure, and can be removed and rinsed with water if needed.
3. Premium Paint Formula
This violet marker uses a non-toxic, water-based pigment ink that mimics the properties of acrylic paint. The color is highly opaque, providing excellent coverage even on dark surfaces.
- Quick-Drying: Reduces the chance of accidental smudging while working in layers.
- Resistance: Once dry, the paint is water-resistant and UV-resistant, ensuring colors don't fade over time.
- Safety: Odorless and non-toxic, making it safe for indoor use and for working with children.
