Sharpie Fine PointS Permanent Marker

This is a review of the sharpie fine points permanent marker pen. I must say, I am a big fan of pens in general. My adoration of pens borders on the obsessive so I think I'm well placed to write this review. People at work call me 'Pauline' after the League of Gentlemen's Job Centre woman (really a man dressed as a woman*) who has a box of 'Pauline's pens' that she is fiercely protective of. Watch out anyone who tries to nick my pens! The Sharpie Permanent Marker is a mixture between a felt tip and a marker pen. Its outcome is permanent and it writes on virtually everything. They are particularly good when writing on CDs. You can buy ...  Read the complete review

I have used Sharpie fine point Marker Pens for the last few months after seeing them at work. This made a pleasant change in the normal non-brand named stationery order that comes in every few weeks. After using a Sharpie Marker for a few weeks at work, I subsequently found and bought a pack for £1.99 in The Works (who seem to have a whole range of these from miniature ones in bright colours such as turquoise, lime green and pink to the standard fine point markers in black, red and blue etc). A miniature sharpie marker pen can be picked up in Wilkinsons for 59p too. They seem to be one of the few "fine point" Permanent marker pens ...  Read the complete review

I have to use permanent markers a lot at work for client files and have a big issue with some of them. My main gripe is that they are sometimes too thick and go all fluffy making writing with them a chore as if you push to hard you get a big smudge and they make writing details look very messy and unsightly if your writing small. Another of my moans is the fact that the lids magically disappear after two seconds and you are left with a pen that is now useless because they dry out quickly without the lid. So on looking around (in the stationary catalogue at work) I noticed this great looking little pen and thought I would give it a try. The Sharpie ...  Read the complete review

I have alway used sharpie markers and I use them for just about everything as I am yet to find a non-shiny hard surface that they wont write on permantently. My dads drawers are aways full of Sharpies as they are so useful and he uses them for work sometimes, so there are alwayss a few about to long-term-loan, however they were on offer a while back at tesco, £2.50 for 5 blacks so I bought some for myself. this variety lets you draw a pretty nice line and is thin enough for writing too so I often use one for birthday cards etc when it looks good and really stands out. I have never known a sharpie run out unless the lid was left off in which case ...  Read the complete review

Sharpies are great little permanent markers. They come in a wide range of colours, they're not too expensive and their ink is of pretty good quality. The ink will pemanently stick to most surfaces although it does struggle with certain very smooth, non porous surfaces. This I have found completely depends on the surface technology being used. I find items like CD's they have no problem at all adhering to and things like plastic bottles again pose no problem. For me the problem came when trying to mark a fly fishing line. These lines are made of high-tech plastics in order to create a waterproof plastic that is also incredibly smooth. The Sharpie ink would not ...  Read the complete review
