It's so funny. Every pen you said wouldn't work actually did work quite well. Great video.

This was exactly the information that I needed. Thanks.

Great video, thank you for demonstrating these different brands, saves me from having to buy each of them!

Thank you for posting. I agree with your take on the Molotow - - super expensive and limited use. Dried out quickly and as you showed in the video. If you try and shake to dispense it, it bleeds and leaves a glob.

Very useful video. THank you for sharing your thoughts & showing us how the pens performed.

You don’t need the scissors, just twist the cap and it breaks the plastic. I love these paint markers as well.

So helpful, thanks so much! I was looking for an acrylic pen to sign my recently completed acrylic painting of my favorite neighborhood cat, Felix. I'm buying the Uni Posca Paint Marker Extra Fine (0.7mm) now. Colors are a bit limited but I can use the black or gold for the signature. thanks so much. PAINT ON!!!

How fast does the paint dry? Is it possible to mix colors?

What’s the difference between acrylic and mat paint pens??? I’m just starting out and don’t know the difference

[goku-pkzr]

Twist the cap and it will open. No need to use any sharp object

I can’t see the gold on the blue background why is that??
