Frequently Asked Questions

Are Sharpie markers truly permanent?

Yes, Sharpie permanent markers use specially formulated ink that bonds to most surfaces and resists fading, water, and general wear. However, they can be removed from non-porous surfaces using appropriate solvents or alcohol-based cleaners if needed.

Will Sharpie markers work on wet or oily surfaces?

Standard Sharpie permanent markers work best on clean, dry surfaces. For wet, oily, or particularly challenging surfaces, Sharpie Paint Markers or Industrial markers offer superior adhesion and visibility.

How long do Sharpie markers last?

With proper storage (cap replaced after use, stored horizontally), Sharpie markers offer excellent shelf life. Professional-grade Sharpie markers are designed for extended use on jobsites, with larger models featuring substantial ink reserves for hundreds of metres of marking.
