Smash KO Marker
Smash went above and beyond our expectations on this one. Does it drip? Yes. Does it stain? Yes. Is it hard to buff? Yes, so don't get it on your clothes. I would have to say this is the juiciest, most permanent, weather resistant, stainiest (is that even a word?) marker we have. To give you an idea of what this marker is like... imagine a Uni Paint (our favorite marker) filled with Smash Ink and a hard staining dye ink like Garvey. Go ahead, order a K.O. and experience streak free lines with perfect drips or no drips if that's how you roll. Pimp it out by flipping the nib and flaring it out to get a wider, round mark.

best pump action marker. not too much ink and the tip becomes loose, however, the ink is vibrant and the odor is extremely potent. I'd fray the tip for better ink distribution. 5 of 5 Stars!

Wish I found these sooner but glad I get to use a couple greens before they are gone. Good opacity and FANTASTIC smell. Ima try to swoop more before they are gone. GR, pls bring these back! 5 of 5 Stars!

buy one before I get em all! people like to hate on the blue and green but with some pilot ink mixed in (really not that hard GR has a video doing it to the Texta 950) they flow so crazy and are super opaque. 5 of 5 Stars!

IMO best marker on the market. The smash ink is amazing, hard to buff, and highly pigmented. You can never go wrong with one of these boys. To be 100% honest, if I could only have one marker, it would be this one. 5 of 5 Stars!

Amazing marker. I miss smash refills. Blood Red and Lennox Blewis both amazing. If you don't want to use the chisel tip, you can flip it and get a nice, flat bullet tip. 5 of 5 Stars!

Question: What nib will fit on these?
Answer:(AP Reply)Try the PIXO 38/PX 30 replacement nib.
Question: Are the ones that are still available to order xylene based like the OG smash ink? And why are marker manufacturers not making xylene based ink anymore is it illegal or something? Does it cause cancer I mean everything causes cancer according to the state of California you walk into a building and they’ll have a stick that says this building has chemical known to the stat of CA to cause cancer
Answer:(AP Reply)The ones still available are the OG markers. They're amazing and we wish we could bring back the entire line!
Regarding Xylene, it is a more potent blend than alcohol or water-based markers. We recommend always using permanent markers in areas that are well ventilated- just like you should wear a respirator when you paint.
Question: Any chance of Violet or Red coming back or are they gone for good :(
Answer:(AP Reply)Sadly, we are no longer able to make the Smash KOs.

Question: Any chance of smash refills coming back?
Answer:(AP Reply)Sadly, no. We are working on some fun new refill options, however- stay tuned.
Question: So I shook the f*ck out of the marker and it's still this light, dusty purple color, nothing like the picture or the other descriptions. Also the metal bottom of the marker body is bulging outward, first a little, now more and more (because I shook it up more thinking that was the problem). Haha, I think I got a dud marker! O_o Am I doing something wrong?
Answer:(AP Reply)Email us how it/s writing and a pic of the marker artprimo.com@gmail.com
(Adriano Says:) Ya the same thing happened to me the nib flow isn't that good as sometimes it'll look like it died and then the next day ill press it to get the ink and it'll just drip all over and spill ink. I've tried to cut the nib and same thing. the end is bulging out as well and I think the ink is almost out now so I want to refill it is there any way to do that?Ya the same thing happened to me the nib flow isn't that good as sometimes it'll look like it died and then the next day ill press it to get the ink and it'll just drip all over and spill ink.

Question: how much does this rattle in a pocket i wanna buy it to bomb but thats my only question been using mops molotow markers stuff like that but i wanna try this
Answer:(AP Reply)If you/re worrying about noise get an ink based marker that you won/t need to shake.
Question: if you were to refill these, what dye based ink would you recommend I mix with smash? Asking for a friend...
Answer:(AP Reply)This marker is a mix between paint and dye based ink. Smash would be great.
Question: What does flaring out the nib mean??
Answer:(AP Reply)Loosening the fibers to have a more mohair 'mop' style nib.
