Markers

 

The marker aisle catches people out because the wrong one either won't stick or won't come off. The trick is to match the marker to the surface and the job, permanent for labelling, whiteboard for boards you wipe clean, paint for dark or shiny surfaces. Browse permanent, whiteboard and paint markers below.

It will stain the board, but it is usually recoverable. Draw over the dried permanent ink with a whiteboard marker, leave it a moment, then wipe, and the solvent in the whiteboard ink lifts both off. To avoid it, keep the two clearly separated.
A bullet tip is round and writes an even line at any angle, good for general marking. A chisel tip is flat and angled, so you get a thin or broad stroke depending on how you hold it, which suits highlighting and lettering.
Paint markers, including Posca, lay down opaque colour that shows on black, coloured and shiny surfaces where standard ink vanishes. They suit signage, glass, craft and art.
Yes. We carry freezer and laundry markers that survive cold and washing, CD and glass markers, and chalk markers for blackboard-style signage, alongside the everyday permanent and whiteboard ranges.

Match the marker to the surface

Permanent markers use a fast-drying ink that bites into plastic, metal, glass and glossy card and resists water, so they are right for labelling and marking that has to last. Whiteboard markers use a wipe-clean ink made only for non-porous boards, and they should never be swapped for permanent on a whiteboard or the board will stain.

Paint markers lay down opaque, water-based or solvent colour that shows up on dark and shiny surfaces where ordinary ink disappears, which makes them the pick for art, signage and craft. Tip shape matters too: a bullet tip writes an even line, while a chisel tip switches between thin and broad strokes depending on the angle.

Start with the surface

A marker only works if it matches what you are writing on. Permanent markers bite into plastic, metal, glass and glossy card and shrug off water, so they handle labelling and anything that has to stay put. Whiteboard markers use a wipe-clean ink made for boards alone, and the two should never be mixed up on the same surface.

When you need opaque colour

Ordinary ink disappears on dark and shiny surfaces, which is where paint markers come in. They lay down solid, opaque colour for signage, glass and craft, and the bright water-based Posca range has a following among artists and small businesses for chalkboard menus and lettering.

Tips, and the jobs they suit

A bullet tip writes an even line for general marking; a chisel tip switches between fine and broad strokes for lettering and highlighting; a fine liner suits detail. We also carry specialty markers for freezer bags, laundry, CDs and glass that survive cold, washing and handling.

Buying markers for a team or classroom

Schools, warehouses and offices tend to go through whiteboard and permanent markers in bulk, so we stock them in boxes and assorted-colour packs. Buying a large order? Ask for a quote at request a quote and the team will sort sharper pricing. For board cleaner and erasers, see whiteboards and accessories.
