Pentel Permanent Marker, White, Broad Point, 1 Pack (100W)

We live in an area where we have to put our trash cans all together with our neighbors so we all have to write our numbers on them so we don’t take ones that aren’t ours. Long story short, we got a new trash can and needed to add our number to it. This worked great and has held up great! Our can are stored outside (and has had a ton of rain on it) and it’s been a few months since I’ve written our number on it and it looks just like it did when I first wrote it.

Mmmmmnh smells good hahaha small and nice

Pretty well on writing home address on garbage can. But it just hard to get ink out. You need to pretty much shake it a long time and get the ink out.

It works

The product works exactly as described. Love it. Marked my trash cans, recycle bins and everything else I needed to mark and is water proof as the trash cans are out in the rain, markings still held up. Great product and would recommend friends and family.

I'll make it short and simple. These little pental shorty's are top quality. Whether you use them for business or pleasure, these truly are one of the most legendary little permanent paint makers on the market. If you're still debating on purchasing this. Do yourself a favor. Buy the 6 pack. They really are that good. They make a fun little fidget toy as well if you find your hands constantly fidgeting. They dry fairly quickly and the color is genuinely opaque, let's not forget how simple and easy they are to use. Shake, prime and enjoy. Superb product Superb ink.

This is a classic marker that kept getting mentioned around me. Finally got around to getting one for myself to see what all the talk was about. It is a nice size, fits in pocket easily and feels solid. The fat barrel makes it more comfortable to work with than others I have tried. That's about all the good I can say about it though. The ink is a bit watery, not nearly as opaque as I had hoped. You need to shake it up like a paint can so it can be noisy to carry. The nib needs to be depressed to prime it before using, and the tip size is pretty small. The point of having a pocket marker to me is to be able to whip it out and use it quickly at any moment, and have it be discreet and reliable. With the shaking, priming, and thin ink it just doesn't live up to the hype. True, you can razor the nib up but I can also get a empty pocket mop for half the price and not have half these issues either.

This is a commercial grade marker, so it can take a little patience and effort to get this thing flowing. I suspect the people quibbling about the marker being too opaque didn't bother to shake it vigorously and then work the tip a little bit until it is primed with the fluid mixed. Some of the clear comes out at first after shaking vigorously, then work it through and it works just fine.These markers need to be "primed" because they are old school, and they are heavy duty industrial use markers, not hobby markers.It doesn't take that long and you have a great permanent marker. For those who can't figure out how to get a commercial/industrial grade marker working, please stick to Sharpies® that take zero user effort to use.I had marked some sanding blocks with my name, and so far (two weeks) of constant sanding and being submerged in buckets the marking show zero wear. Try that with a Sharpie®. So far so good!
