All-purpose paint markers can be handy when you have many projects to complete and don't want to spend an outrageous amount of money. Deco Paint markers are these types of all-purpose art supplies. They can draw on almost any surface, come in several sizes of tip size for broad coloring jobs and fancy calligraphy jobs, and come in a variety of colors to suit any palette needs.
Function
Deco Paint markers are specifically designed to handle many artistic projects, such as craftwork, sketching and coloring over large surfaces.
Types
Deco Paint markers come in many palette options, including metallic colors, primary colors and glitter paint colors. They are also available in a variety of tip sizes such as fine point, broad point, extra fine point and a calligraphy-style tip. You can also find them in many different packaging sizes, including packs of three, six or sold individually.
Features
These paint markers are built with a pump action valve for control over ink flow. They come in a variety of 30 colors, including brown, copper, dark brown, rosemary, rosewood, cream yellow, blush pink, blue, black, crimson lake, gold, yellow gold, green, pink, plum, red, and white. They are made with solvent-based paint so they dry very quickly, and they are also weatherproof and lightfast (fade resistant, especially to ultraviolet light). Deco Paint markers are intended for multiple uses and are therefore also able to be blended with other colors for a full opaqueness.
Identification
Deco Paint markers are manufactured by the Marvy Uchida company. All of the markers in the series have a DecoColor label, as well as the Marvy logo.
Effects
Deco Paint markers work on multiple surfaces including signs, posters, treated fabrics such as backpack material, shoes, skateboards, glass, metal, porcelain, stone, wood and even leather. On some surfaces they are permanent, such as on fabric, but on others (such as glass) they can be removed with a turpentine solution.
Warning
These markers contain Xylene, a solvent that can cause headaches, dizziness and confusion from prolonged exposure and inhalation. This prolonged exposure can also cause irritation of the skin, eyes and throat. The markers should not be used by children and should only be used in well-ventilated areas. Some surfaces, such as plastics and fabrics, can have a negative reaction to the paint chemicals from the markers, so you should read the label on the marker packaging carefully before use to make sure you can use them on your intended surface.
