Marker set POSCA Pigmentmarker STREET VIBES — 20-piece metal box: 6×PC1MC, 7×PC3M, 7×PC5M

POSCA Pigmentmarker STREET VIBES — 20-piece metal box contains a selection of water-based, opaque pigment markers designed for consistent coverage on multiple surfaces. The set includes six PC1MC fine-tip markers, seven PC3M medium-tip markers and seven PC5M broad-tip markers, packed in a sturdy metal case for organized storage and portability. The pigment ink is waterproof once dry and provides vivid, solid colors on paper, cardboard, wood, glass and metal, making the set suitable for a range of creative and practical tasks.

Advantages

The combination of PC1MC, PC3M and PC5M tips gives a flexible toolkit for detailed lines, mid-width strokes and bold fills without changing product families. Water-based pigment formulation delivers opaque, lightfast colour that covers well on both porous and non-porous materials. The metal box protects markers during transport and keeps them accessible, while the consistent ink flow supports uniform results across different marker sizes and surfaces.

Suitable for

• Illustration and sketching at varying line widths
• Lettering, calligraphy and sign-making
• Graffiti-style accents and urban art projects
• Design mock-ups and product visualisations
• Craft projects on paper, cardboard, wood, glass and metal

When it may not be suitable

These markers are water-based pigment pens intended for artistic and craft use rather than industrial applications requiring chemically resistant or high-temperature-stable inks. On very smooth, non-porous surfaces long-term abrasion resistance may be limited unless a protective coating is applied. Extremely fine technical drawing or vector-precision work that needs micron-level consistency may require specialized technical pens.

Key specifications

• Set composition: 20 markers — 6×fine (PC1MC), 7×medium (PC3M), 7×broad (PC5M)
• Ink type: water-based opaque pigment
• Drying properties: quick-drying; water-resistant when dry
• Usable surfaces: paper, cardboard, wood, glass, metal
• Packaging: metal storage box for organisation and portability

How to use

Shake each marker well before use to mix the pigment and activate the ink flow, following the manufacturer's priming instructions. Press the nib gently on a scrap surface to start the ink flow if needed. Use PC1MC for fine details and outlines, PC3M for medium strokes and PC5M for filling larger areas or creating bold lines. Allow marks to dry fully to achieve water resistance; on non-porous surfaces consider a test stroke first and, if necessary, apply a clear varnish or fixative for extra durability.

What to consider before purchase

• If you need only one tip size, check whether a mixed set is the most economical option for you
• Consider surface compatibility — test on a small area for adhesion and drying time on glass or metal
• If long-term outdoor exposure or high abrasion resistance is required, plan to use a protective topcoat

Usage recommendations

For consistent results, store markers horizontally when not in use and recap immediately after use. Use the fine PC1MC for precise linework, transition to PC3M for general drawing and switch to PC5M for rapid coverage. Test colour layers and drying times on a scrap piece to build predictable outcomes across mixed media projects.
