Posca Paint Markers are famous for their versatility, but what really sets them apart is the specific formulation of the “ink” inside. Technically, it is a water-based pigment paint, not a traditional dye-based ink.
The paint is highly concentrated and dries to an opaque, matte and vibrant finish. The colours are UV resistant. The paint is mostly odourless and non-toxic making them fine to use indoors.
The paint is blendable while still wet and can even be diluted to create watercolour effects. Once dry Posca paint is waterproof and can be sealed to be made wear resistant.
Why Artists & Makers Love the PC-5M:
Unmatched Multi-Surface Versatility: Works seamlessly on canvas, wood, glass, metal, plastic, terracotta, paper, cardboard, textiles, and stone.
Opaque & Layerable: Dries quickly to a vibrant, matte finish. Once dry, you can layer lighter colors directly over darker ones with zero bleed-through.
Reversible & Washable Nib: If the tip gets dirty or worn, simply pull it out, rinse it under warm water, or flip it around for a brand-new point.
Non-Toxic & Water-Based: Odorless, solvent-free, and lightfast—safe for studio work, home projects, and classroom use.
