Paintmarker POSCA 186817 set — various colours, 20 pieces

POSCA 186817 set — assorted colours, 20 pieces includes twenty water-based paint markers that deliver opaque, pigment-rich ink suitable for a wide range of surfaces. Each marker produces a matte finish and consistent coverage, making the set useful for illustration, crafts, school projects, DIY decor and mixed-media artwork. The pack contains 20 different colours, offering a practical palette for both detail work and larger colour areas.

Advantages

The markers use an opaque, water-based pigment ink that adheres to paper, cardboard, wood, metal, glass and ceramics while remaining lightfast and resistant to smudging when dry. The multicolour range in a single set simplifies colour matching and layering across different materials. The matte finish ensures low glare and a uniform appearance on finished work.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

Because the ink is water-based pigment, it is not intended for marking food-contact surfaces or items that require specialized food-safe coatings. Results on very glossy, oily or untreated non-porous plastics may be less durable and could require surface preparation or a compatible primer to achieve long-term adhesion.

Key specifications

How to use

Shake each marker well before use to mix the pigment. Press the nib gently on a scrap surface to start ink flow, then apply in steady strokes. For best adhesion on smooth non-porous surfaces, clean and dry the surface first; multiple layers may be applied after drying between coats to increase opacity. Store markers horizontally when not in use to maintain even ink distribution.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

For best results, test a marker on a small area before applying to the final object. Allow each layer to dry fully before overpainting. Use on clean, dry surfaces and keep caps closed when not in use to prevent nib drying.
