Pilot Frixion Erasable Pen are distinguished by their heat-sensitive ink. When an eraser stud on their end rubs against it, friction causes lines to dissipate!
These pens work well on fabric, making them perfect for embroidery projects. However, if left in hot environments for too long, lines may reappear.
Inks
Pilot FriXion inks come in an extensive selection of colors and body styles. Their signature “Metamocolor” thermo-reactive ink technology quickly disappears when exposed to heat, making it the ideal ink solution for sending secret messages or correcting mistakes without using pencil erasers. Plus, the FriXion works on fabric for embroidery projects!
Standard black FriXion ink features a greenish tint and is lighter than most gel pens; it works fine on Rocketbook however. Other erasable inks have stronger pigmentation, like Ball Knock Zone’s black ink.
FriXion pens also come with a colorless option, though this doesn’t work as effectively on paper. Additionally, there are other forms of erasable ink available, such as rub-off ink which forms a film which is easy to remove with standard erasers; these shouldn’t be used with wet erasers as this could leave behind permanent marks that cannot be erased.
Tips
Pilot offers an assortment of Frixion pens that range in length and width, color and tip size. Their lineup features gel pens that write smoothly and crisply; “erasable” highlighters with bright lines; markers with broad tips and sleek dark bodies featuring colorful designs – some even feature an eraser cap to allow finer corrections.
Some users have reported their erasable pens turning clear due to hot weather. If this occurs, simply place them in the freezer for 20-30 minutes to restore their vibrant colors. If they still are not as vibrant, try changing up colors or tip sizes until your desired result can be reached.
Erasable highlighters feature vibrant and bold ink that quickly fades, making them ideal for highlighting important information. Drier than traditional highlighters, they don’t bleed through paper as easily; their impressive selection of colors is equally impressive; their wooden grip pens feature sophisticated wooden grips; making these highlighters suitable for coloring, organizing notes or embroidery projects (though testing should first be conducted).
Erasers
As opposed to older erasable pens that left sticky residue or took more effort than necessary to erase, these are much quicker and simpler to use. Erasing is accomplished via friction rather than scraping like with pencils; no dust is produced either, plus these don’t damage paper like regular ink does.
Erasable ink comes in up to eight colors and includes a Frixion Light highlighter, with multi-pen options available to color-code and customize, such as an executive pen. There are also all-plastic pens and sophisticated wooden grip models featuring metal clips – as well as options with color coding capability and multi-pen designs available for colour coding purposes.
Pilot offers replacement “erasers” for many multi pens to replace those which become worn down over time. Available in various colours to match their counterpart pens and packaged with their own cases for easy organization, these erasers also come equipped with special thermo-sensitive material which reacts with heat by turning ink clear as you rub. There are even illuminated erasers specifically made for writing in dim lighting environments with thermosensitive material reacting with temperature to reveal clear ink when rub.
Refills
Erasable gel pens offer a variety of body designs and ink colors, from sleek dark bodies to pastel hues or Disney characters. There are even multi pen options and retractable models with built-in erasers that make life simpler!
Pilot’s FriXion erasable ink technology is renowned for erasing cleanly from paper without damaging it or leaving residue, enabling instantaneous rewriting thanks to its special gel ink that reacts to friction and heat generated when you rub an eraser over it.
FriXion Ball Standard erasable gel pens are one of the most widely-used erasable gel pens on the market, featuring a 0.5 mm tip and available with black, red, and blue refills – or with special color-coding versions featuring green ink as an added feature. For something different and stylish try the ILMILY Color Gel Pen which features innovative metamo ink that changes colors when exposed to heat; featuring an eye-catching white barrel complete with colorful grip sections and caps for extra flair!
Safety
Erasable pens are an invaluable asset to students, artists, and professionals alike; however, it’s essential to know when using an erasable pen is suitable. Without proper instructions on how to use this technology, using one could become messy quickly; here are some tips to make the most of this amazing tool!
Erasable pens are perfect for sketching and easy revision of designs, providing easy updates. Additionally, they’re an invaluable confidence-builder for children learning to draw or write; lessening fear of mistakes while encouraging risk-taking. Furthermore, these versatile writing instruments can even help draft contracts or official documents without needing white-out or correction tape to make changes quickly and without issue.
Contrary to most gel pens, this pen’s ILMILY Color ink responds to heat rather than turning clear when exposed to it, and can be erased using its rubber “eraser.” Once dry, however, its effects won’t return until exposed again to heat; hence why it is wiser to wait until you need your pen again before taking it out of its bag or desk storage place.
