Posca Paint Art Markers, Set of 15 5M Medium Acrylic Markers with Reversible Tips, Artist Recommended Paint Pens for Gifts, Decorations, Fabric, Metal, Windows, Wood and Canvas Assorted Assorted
Overview
Posca PC-5M paint markers are a 15-color set of medium, reversible-tip acrylic pens designed for artists, crafters, teachers and sign makers who need bold, opaque marks on multiple surfaces. Each 5M tip (about 2.5–3 mm) delivers a dependable mid-width line ideal for lettering, outlines and filling small areas. The water-based pigment ink is highly opaque on dark and light backgrounds, dries quickly, and becomes water-resistant when dry — permanent on porous surfaces like paper and wood and removable from smooth glass or metal if needed. These non-toxic, versatile markers are useful for mixed-media projects, customizing fabric (with heat-setting), rock and glass painting, and creating vibrant signs or gifts. Shake and press the tip to prime paint flow before use.
Key Features
- Set of 15 assorted colors — broad palette for layering, lettering, and accents

- Versatile adhesion: permanent on porous materials (paper, wood, canvas) and removable/cleanable from non-porous surfaces (glass, metal) before curing
- Activation system: shake marker to mix pigment, then press the tip to prime flow; low-odor and non-toxic formulation
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Opaque, highly pigmented water-based ink that covers dark surfaces well
- Reversible 5M tip (~2.5–3 mm) offers consistent mid-width lines and longer nib life
- Works on many surfaces: paper, wood, metal, glass, canvas, plastic, plaster and fabric
- Non-toxic, low-odor formula that dries quickly and resists water once cured
- No bleed-through on paper (unlike alcohol markers) — good for signs and craft projects
Cons
- Requires shaking and tip-priming (pressing) to start paint flow, which can be messy for beginners
- Not easily refillable — markers are consumable and tips will wear over heavy use
- May need heat-setting or sealing for long-term durability on frequently washed fabric
- Paint can chip on flexible substrates or bend points if not sealed or used sparingly
Recommendations
- Hand-lettering and sign-making — bold, opaque strokes are excellent for short- to medium-term outdoor or indoor signs
- Mixed-media art and illustration — use on canvas, paper, wood and for layering with other acrylics
- Crafts and gifting — ideal for rock painting, personalized tumblers, glassware (not dishwasher safe unless sealed) and holiday decorations
- School and classroom projects — non-toxic formula and easy-to-use medium tip make them suitable for teacher-led crafts and student use
