CHANGED TO A QUESTION
the white version of this marker SMOKES the white uni px30 paint. I know the px30 is the classic everybody loves, but that white paint it comes with is really streaky and not opaque. I even refilled the uni with the T-grade marsh white and it looks almost identical to the stock paint (I didn't change the nib though, waiting for a new one to arrive, not sure how much of a diff that'll make here). I wrote on a bunch of smoothish surfaces with both the uni+white marsh and the molotow next to each other, dumpsters, electrical boxes, signs etc, and every time the molotow looks way way better, pretty damn opaque and it hasn't streaked yet.
On the other hand, I got the light blue as well (shock blue) and while it looks great on paper and on cardboard, this color BARELY showed up on any of these street surfaces I tested on. For real it looked like the streakiest barely visible sh*t possible. Took it back home and wrote on some paper and it looked great again. Not even sure how that's possible, but I def don't recommend the shock blue if you're gonna be writing in the real world. It's a shame because it is a really nice color. The smaller unis (px20) have a light blue color that looks incredible on real surfaces. I wish they sold that color as a px30 because I love it.
So yeah, molotow signal white is fire, shock blue is pretty bad. I guess that's just how paint markers are though, once you have good markers, it really comes down to the paint/inks.
