    i gave up on markers, i just use my kiwi mop. Making your own ink is harder than mixing w/e 2-3 rusto buckets of paint to get the color you want.. add a little paint thiner and a few drops of brake fluid...

    I've been rocking that pink lately... Next up is baby blue i think :p

    Question: I wana make it becoming a silver marker, is it possible to do this? By what way?
    Because as I know lots of silver paint markers contains xylene and only available in metal body markers

    theres not usually any xylene in paint itself.. its the thinner they use.. becuause sometime they cant get some of the ingredients to go through the pump.. but

    <3 posca's.. they are probobly the, or one of the best pump markers ever...

    + the nibs are FUCKING IMMORTAL!!!!

    Yeah i LOVE my posca's... It just sucks cause you need ink to use em. Paint wont work as well, at least for me it didnt. I had to make it super thin but then it wouldnt hold at all, everything would drip and you couldnt read anything.
    The nib is too think for normal paint to go through it completely, so it always comes out super thin :(
    But if you can get really good ink, or make it yourself, then you're golden.

    As for the silver paint, i keet mine for a long time in the same coke bottle and nothing happened to the plastic... So it shouldnt be a prob in the posca.

    it matters how you use it, rough surfaces will eat up the nib. it also depends on what kind if ink you use. if your using some hard staining stuff, it will weaken the nib when it becomes wet.

    acrylic paint does have some nice colors that are more commonly found than oil base...

    Ok, u want to know wat that is? I want a good ink, not just "2/3 paint, 1/3 mineral spirits/thinner" like everyone tells me, that ink recipe just ruined one of my nibs on my best marker lol

    I can ive you a good ink, but you need some shit for it.

    And it ruined your window marker because that was a pump marker, which you shouldn't have put GK in anyway, GK is for mops which you have.

    You got Aim, I'll help you with ink there.
