Can you draw on this with a regular marker? Will it destroy the marker fast? Is it easy to write on? (use - guest sign in for wedding)

I'm not sure because I haven't used a marker on mine. However, the wood is really smooth. I would try using a permanent marker rather than a water-based crayola type. It would probably work fine.

I have not tried to draw on this. I will tell you the surface is smooth and I would think it would work drawing with a good marker.

don't think you can write on the Notes app only type. You can get an app like WritePad that let's you right. I haven't had any problems with these on any of the apps I have that are specifically made for writing or drawing.

Yes You can Use a marker, like a sharpie or something with smooth tip just soft enough not to scratch the surface.

sure you can write on it with a sharpie. you will have to tape it or attach it somehow to a box though ~ hope this helps!

The advantage to this pen is that is does bleed when I wet it. It does not bleed through when I apply it. I use it for sketching. It draws a nice neat line. Then I wet a brush and go over the pen lines to shade the drawing. Once this has dried, it is relatively permanent. Only the yellow top Razor Point has this characteristic. The others are meant to make permanent marks. I am usually working on paper that is a little heavier than printer paper and the pen doesn't bleed through on it.

I'll keep my eye open and let you all know. I tried using different crayola markers from color explosion and they don't work very well. So if you have those try it out until you get the refills. Has anyone out there tried other markers or know where to purchase the refills.....

Only the first sheet (a little heavier paper than the rest) has the writing on it. It is a notepad, not sticky. I had custom pencils made with the bride and grooms name and wedding date on it. Than I took some tulle and tied the pencil to the pad. It was beautiful! I used it for her bridal shower, but you can use it for the wedding too. I loved them! If this is what you are looking for, it is perfect for how I did it!

The pen/marker says 1.2mm. The color is definitely solid, though I colored a solid glass. I don't see how it would show through clear glass. Also, you can go over what you draw/color - making it so light is sure not to come through if this is what you are looking for. I'm not too sure what your 3rd question is. The maker is thick enough to not be overwelmed with coloring in. If you are looking to do fancy text, then this may be too thick. It would write like a standard sharpie, maybe a bit thicker. :)

You could probably write on it with a permanent sharpie marker. The material is plastic (similar to a disposable plastic tablecloth or ziplock bag).

Sure! Your pen needs to have ink flow stimulated by some form of "suction". The easiest and gentlest method I've found is to ball up a kleenex and run it very gently with the smooth side of the nib. Just gently "wipe" the nib in a downward motion until you see ink in the kleenex. Then try to gently "write" on the kleenex with the pen. If you get no lines, just keep the gentle downward wipe with the nib and you'll soon get it. Whatever you do, don't use "writing" on paper as a way of making the pen have flow. It's not a ballpoint! You'll wear down your nib which needs inky lubrication to perform well.

I like Noodler's, even though it doesn't "cure" as fast as the Fast Dry Private Reserve. I can reactivate Noodler's with a light wash and watercolor brush for a time after laying down line work. Even though it may seem dry to the touch, Noodler's can still smudge for a while. This is great if, like me, you wish to use it for quick ink washes. Not so great if you want to lay in clean color during the same sketching session, or if you want to use it for lettering and have a tendency to work with the side of your palm touching the paper. (I would imagine this would be particularly so with southpaws who must work from left to right over their freshly inked lines.) I use Noodler's in a couple of vintage fountain pens and have no problems whatsoever; it is the only ink I'm currently using in my Lamy medium nib pens.

I don't know, I haven't tried permanent markers. Regular ball point pen comes off with soapy water though. A Sharpie fine point would be too large for the size of the label though, if you want to write more than just the date. I am pleased with them, I don't have anything older than 60 ays in my freezer now.

Hi Molly- I use Fisher Space Ball Point Refills for this pen. I saw that someone else suggested using Fisher and thought I'd give it a try. So glad I did! Because I'd been so disappointed with Zebra refills for quite some time. My favorite pens (Zebra) were suddenly turning my journals into a dotted, blotchy mess. There's just an even flow of ink while writing with Fisher refills that Zebra simply doesn't have anymore. I have no idea why the Zebra refills tend to leave blots now, resulting in pages of speckled writing (if that makes sense.) It's incredibly annoying. I even switched from the Zebra 301 (my forever trusted favorite) to the F402 pen to see if that would make any difference. It did not. I loved the fine point that came with the steel pen. The glide of the pen across most any paper is amazing. But again the blotchy spots ruin it for me. And perhaps it's just me and the ridiculous standard I have for a writing instrument. I don't know. The Fisher refill is not quite as fine as the one that comes with the Zebra steel pen. But it's still a reasonably fine point. Should you go with Fisher refills, be aware that your Zebra Steel pen won't click and retract normally. In other words, it won't. Or at least mine don't. But that doesn't bother me at all. I have four of the Zebra Steel pens. And I love them...with Fisher refills! I hope my Chronicles of Zebra (sorry) help you select something that suits your specific needs. I feel like a total Amazon dork right now. I hardly ever write reviews. I know. How selfish.

I used a fine point permanent marker on it and it bled through, I've never used a fountain pen before on it, so I'm not sure, sorry!

I've used copics and prismacolor markers in this, the paper is thin and pen and marker will bleed through pretty badly. I would recommend buying a book or paper specifically for copics, or a multimedia sketchbook.

Been sketching with Flair tips since 1971. Then they had a small white point guard at the writing tip, but the tipstill got wider after usage and pressure. The ones I use today don't have that point guard and seem to be harder and keep a point longer but still get wider and softer after usage and pressure. My first time hearing "Hardhead"associated with Flair pens. Sounds like a selling tag. Just my opinion. Black is the only color I've ever used, aboutone a month.

I just tried using a dry erase marker on it. It works, and the ink comes off easily. If you have large piece of metal to attach the sheet to, it would do what you want.
