these are about "3.5 long and as wide as your standard jumbo pump marker. once the nib is broken in or flared it writes super smooth. i love this marker but the only thing that sucked was that i thought it wasn't refillable but if you read enough about graff you'll find out that some writers used to refill these markers with ink.

you can refill it by using a pilot ink dropper or any dropper and a long needle. take out the nib, insert the long needle and use the dropper to fill the opening to the top with ink. now keep pressing the needle up and down till the ink sinks down into the marker. repeat till the ink stops going down. this may take a while but you get a pentel shorty filled with the ink of your choice! and it's quieter because you won't have to shake it like you did when it was full of paint.. how dope is this marker now?

you can use this method with any pump action marker that's not refillable like krink's k-70 or the marsh 88.  5 of 5 Stars!

definitely a classic but has its kinks.
the paint is verryy runny and is not thick or high coverage so you're going to want to stick to smooth surfaces that aren't going to eat it as much. think road signs, smooth metal, electric boxes, doors, etc, thats where this thing will shine for you. porous surfaces like rust, for example, will just suck the paint right up.
this marker doesn't seem like it at first but by god is it messy!! it will get its load all over you and itself (haha) within your first day of using it especially if you write aggressively and depress the valve while writing. the cap will get sticky and if you let it, very stuck. i had to use pliers one time to twist the thing off.
one of my biggest issues with this marker is how inconsistent it is flowwise, sometimes it will streak, and then youll depress the nib thinking its not juiced enough and it will just go everywhere. its as if the nib isnt doing a very good job of absorbing the paint, the paint seems to flow PAST the nib when you juice it. .
if you let it sit upright for a few days the paint is so runny that it will seep OUT of the nib back into the marker body, and yes, im shaking it properly. but hey, its a classic. you HAVE to use it.  5 of 5 Stars!

Solid marker that does it's job pretty well. Discreet, but capable of good tags that match similar Pentel paint pen products, just in a mini package. Only major complaints and why it doesn't get 5/5:
1. Cap gets stuck REALLY easily and it WILL get stuck in your time using it. Guaranteed.
2. Nib is a bit soft and can go flat on even smooth surfaces if used enough with enough pressure.
3. Tags get streakier as you run out of ink.
4. If out of use for a while, takes a LONG time to get back into usable condition unless you replace the nib outright.

On the plus side tho...smells pretty good!  4 of 5 Stars!

It's a classic for a reason! For sure one of my favorites. Love the compact size and it's smooth af after breaking in the nib/flaring it out. I have had some streaks with these before but I still recommend everyone try these. REMEMBER: you can refill these even though they don't come apart.  5 of 5 Stars!

Boss Marker. Can barely see this thing in your pocket. White ink that comes in it is dope, then refill it with something thin because this thing does not like thick formula paint. Tried putting white oil based rusto in mine, didn't work out as well as i expected, clogged it. But theses are only 4 dollars, so I got another. Get these in ya next order, you won´t be dissapointed.  5 of 5 Stars!

very nice little paint marker. its super easy to conceal and it writes well. some slight issues i had: the nib is a little stiff when you get it, and its gonna have to flare up a bit before you reach the best writing quality. the cap gets a little stuck sometimes and you have to pry it off with a coin. overall very nice marker, very satisfied with the performance of it.  5 of 5 Stars!

I've personally struggled to get this marker to work well with the stock paint, and I've given multiple markers a large amount of time to break in and get better. I've never been able to get through my 4 letter tag without it going dry, even if I start the first letter with a droplet hanging off of the nib. If you look at the other reviews, I seem to be in the minority with this problem.

These really start to shine for me when you mix in some pilot ink or magic ink. It thins the ink out, giving it the flow it needs, while adding a bit to the opacity. Definitely a great marker after this little mod. You have to take the nib out, pour ink into the nib hole, then take a little needle or chopstick and depress the valve a few times to get it to flow back into the body. It usually takes a few times to achieve the desired color. If the marker runs empty, you can do this same process to refill it with whatever ink you want.

In stock form, I give it 3/5, but you can get it to 4/5 with this little mod.  3 of 5 Stars!

PRO TIP:

Carry a quarter in your pocket with this guy if the cap gets stuck insert the quarter in the gap between the cap and the body and twist. Should pop right off.  5 of 5 Stars!

It's sick and wonderful and a dope @$$ classic for a reason, but the cap on mine got stuck so many times that the plastic collar that transitions from the body to the nib area broke off inside the cap yesterday as I was pulling the lid off.
Luckily I bought two because it's so dope. Needless to say I'll be applying some lubricant to the inside of the cap of the next one.
Also it's cute as hell. Give one to your sweetheart and they'll give you... ;)  4 of 5 Stars!

Prolly one of the best white markers. The nib is durable as HELL. you can write on a lotta tough sh*t, and the nib will still work. The white paint is an opaque oil based paint. These work on a variety of surfaces. Plastics, metal, glass, smoother cement and concrete, wood, but NO BRICKS. This thing has a considerable ammount of paint in it. It lasts a while. After you get about halfway through the paint in the marker, which is a lot of tags, you can put a bit of garvey, or simmilar ink in it, and then shake the f*ck outta it, and then pump it a bit. You should end up with a lighter color paint than the color ink you mixed into it.
TO PUT IN INK OR REFILL IT: Take out the nib, and then pour a little ink into where the nib was. Then, take a nail and push down the valve. Push in the valve repeatedly until all the ink drains into the marker.
OVERALL: Great marker! You should definitelly cop one in your next order. A MUST in your graffiti marker arsenal  5 of 5 Stars!

This marker sucks dick, if you want a good marker don't buy this. It writes streaky as f*ck, wont mark on alot of surfaces, non refillable (kinda but not really), small ink capacity, and worst of all the cap constantly gets stuck to the body and is almost impossible to get off. I actually broke the cap trying to remove it.  2 of 5 Stars!

Size, Portability, Quantity, Quality, Master Blaster White, What more can you ask for? I stock up on these all the time. Write on anything, even in rough weather. The nibs are durable as hell and I don't think I've really worn one down to the point of not being able to use them. I've even picked one up after 8 years of storage, shook it and worked like a boss. If the paint builds up around the nib clean it so it doesn't seal the cap on. These things can take some of the worst beatings i've seen and still work like a boss. Hands down favorite marker. Always have one or two on me.  5 of 5 Stars!

If you've never owned one of these,once you get the nib flared out on it, the size if it will AMAZE you. It will write about the same size as a small mop and the flow is ridiculous. The smell of this marker gave me acid flashbacks.It has the exact same smell as the old Testors markers I used back in like '91-'92.(wich were also dope once you flared them) 5 out of 5 for the O.G. Pentel White.  5 of 5 Stars!

anon. 02/10/2012
As mentioned before, these markers are at their prime when the nib is flared. If you dont know how to do this, grab a needle or pushpin or something, stick it directly down into the nib from the top, kind of near an edge, now bend the needle out to the side and pull a little section of felt out to the side... repeat this all around the edge until it is nice and fat! Enjoy!

Anyone complaining about the noise of the rattling ball inside, it is a steel ball so a little disc shaped magnet on the bottom will silence it. I got a grip of these magnets at the hardware store for a buck. krazy glue one on the bottom and youll never even know its there.

anyone complaining about the tight cap, well if you look at the cap from the top down, you will notice the little "wings" of the cap form a cross... take a file and file down one on either side so that you just have two wings opposite each other. this helps you get a better thumb and pointer finger connection on the cap without the other wings digging into your finger joints while twisting. sort of works like a key if you get me...

refilling, two ways to do this... first is with a eyedropper as mentioned in another review... second is to take something like a deco color white and set the pentel on a table so the nib is pointing into the air straight up, take the deco and press its nib directly to the pentels nib... press hard enough so that both nubs retract inside their bodies... the deco white will flow slowly into the pentel white.
you can also just take the nib out and use a nail to hold the valve open while you carefully pour some other sh1t in there

only complaint is that on smooth surfaces this marker sometimes makes a really squeaky noise when its writing and i havent figured out how to stop that yet....  5 of 5 Stars!

This marker sucks.. I juiced the nib and it streaks like crazy, the nib drys up in about 5 minutes. And it just sucks.. Maybe I just a bad marker because most of the reviews are good. Who knows.. wouldn't buy it again though. (apreply) This marker is the shiznit. I have been using them since 91 and can tell you that you are missing out if you dont like it. just break in your nib and write with it sunny. I'm sure its fine. Or better yet, send it to me. i want it back. No worries, Ill hit you up on the flip side dawg.  1 of 5 Stars!

I always carry a Pentel. As long as you can find a dark or a metal surface, you can crush. An added bonus to this marker is that you can take the cap off while in your pocket so you can just take it out and write. Sneaky....

the solid white tags from this marker look dope! its classic for obvious reasons: small size, durable nib, its almost full with quality paint and it smells great too :P also it's easy to make a habit of tossing it in your pocket every time you get dressed.

you have to flare out the nib if you want proper fat lines. and tape a small magnet at the end of the marker if you don't like the loud clicking sound from the metal mixing ball, it gets too many glances in public.

the only cons are that it's not refillable and the cap can get stuck sometimes making you look like a jackass before you catch a tag lol, it gets looser after a while though.

overall it's an essential marker, i definitely recommend it.  4 of 5 Stars!

i love this marker! whin i got i pulled the nib out and rubbed it in skateboard griptape, i didnt totally flare the nib, i just flattened it and it works great! i used it so much! yet it only felt about half empety! so then i dented it and that made it write even better! still not empety but im deff. gonna copp another 1! TIP: rubb the nib on something rough BEFORE you juice the nib! it dosnt waste ink that way and only rubb it till the bib is flattened because if you totally flare it it wont have as good of flow and streak.and dont dent it untill you have used some of the ink because it will make a big mess!also it dosnt show up on unpainted wood.so copp atleast 1 and use my top! your welcome!  5 of 5 Stars!
