I like these Parker Jotters because they are fairly cheap (compared to more traditional fountain pens), and also refillable. And you all know how I feel about keeping costs down with refillable pens. The ink that comes as standard is waterproof and doesn’t run when used with alcohol markers. They come in different widths too. I use a fine and slightly less fine on my line work. 2. Copic Fineliners The Sakura Pigma ink has a long and interesting history, focused on making those pigment particles as small as possible allowing for finer nibs and finer work. Eraser Pens for Alcohol Markers Choosing the right fineliner for you depends on what size tip you need. They are made from fine felt tips, ranging from 0.03mm to 0.8mm. If you need a fine line for art and drawing, it's helpful to have a selection of different nib sizes. This will give you greater control and flexibility over your creations. But if you want a fineliner for writing, a 0.3mm medium tip might be best so your writing isn't too fine. If you’re someone who appreciates making notes, diagrams, and charts on paper as opposed to on screens, then you’ll really value the thin precision that the nib of a fineliner will give to these. Experiment with different techniques, such as cross-hatching and stippling, to create different textures and effects.

The pens have a history of being used in the technical drawing trade, which might explain the use of a number system unfamiliar to illustrators and hobbyists. The full breakdown of sizes is 003 = 0.15mm, 005 = 0.20mm, 01 = 0.25mm, 02 = 0.30mm, 03 = 0.35mm, 05 = 0.45mm, 08 = 0.50mm, 10 = 0.60mm, and 12 = 0.70mm. Are Micron Pens Alcohol Based? Fineliner’s aren’t the only option though, as you’ll see from my preference of fountain pen below. Best pens for Alcohol markers.

The second ink test is Daler Rowney FW Ink. This is an acrylic-based ink and we are using Lemon Yellow. Again, I have I’ve drawn a series of different marks with the fineliners and gone over them with the ink. There are no eraser pens for alcohol markers, which is a question we see a lot of. Because of the way the pigment bonds to the paper, there’s no obvious white out/tipex answer you will find in a typical pen form. Why Pigma Micron Fineliners are a Must-Have If you’re reading this, chances are you’re on the hunt for the perfect fineliner. Both inks produced similar results for this test. All the fineliners resisted smudging quite well apart from the Stabilo Point 88 Fineliner. Again, with it being water-based, this was expected. I did notice some small smudging from the Winsor & Newton Fineliner when used with the Drawing Inks, especially on cross hatched marks, but it performed fine with the Acrylic Inks. I also tested the fineliners on top of the ink once dry. All pens worked well, but the Stabilo Point 88 seemed much more faded. The Staedtler Pigment Liner is winning here, with 11 different nib sizes available. It comes in a broad 1.2 nib as well as an excellent selection of smaller sizes. The Uni-Pin and Pigma Micron Fineliners have the smallest nib size at 0.03. It gives you good precision, but you do have to be careful not to press too hard as it is very delicate. I’ve found the 0.1 nib size holds up much better over time.

Well, they’re perfect for outlining and filling in fine details in drawings, as well as technical drawing and writing. They’re also great for journaling, scrapbooking, and any project that requires precision and attention to detail.Now, onto the Pigma Micron. These fineliners are the gold standard in the industry, known for their archival quality ink that is waterproof, fade-resistant, and doesn’t bleed through paper. Plus, they’re made with a durable plastic nib that maintains its shape even after heavy use, ensuring consistent lines every time.
