Marker POSCA PC-5BR Brush, coral pink, semi-flexible foam tip, line 1.0–4 mm, single piece

POSCA PC-5BR Brush in coral pink is a water-based pigment marker with a semi-flexible foam brush tip that delivers variable strokes from 1.0 to 4 mm. Designed for clear, opaque coverage, this single-piece marker works on paper, cardboard, wood, metal, plastics and other common surfaces used in art, craft and signage applications. The coral pink color provides vivid, consistent results whether used for fine lines, broader fills or expressive brush-style lettering.

Advantages

The semi-flexible foam tip combines the control of a fine point with the versatility of a brush, allowing smooth transitions between thin and broad strokes. Water-based pigment ink is opaque and offers good coverage on both light and dark backgrounds. The marker’s durable tip retains shape during repeated use and is suitable for precise outlines as well as area filling. Being a single-piece marker makes it convenient for portable projects, workshops and classroom use.

Suitable for

• Hand lettering and calligraphy with variable line width.
• Illustrations, sketching and comic inking.
• Outlining and filling shapes on paper, cardboard and wood.
• Small signage, labels and craft projects on mixed surfaces.

When it may not be suitable

This marker is not intended for permanent outdoor use on surfaces exposed to heavy weathering; the water-based pigment ink may require additional sealing for long-term outdoor durability. It is also not formulated for highly porous industrial substrates where ink absorption would reduce opacity and flow consistency.

Key specifications

• Tip type: semi-flexible foam brush tip
• Line width: variable 1.0–4 mm
• Ink type: water-based pigment ink (opaque)
• Color: coral pink
• Packaging: single piece marker

How to use

Shake the marker with the cap on to mix the pigment, then press the tip gently on a scrap surface to prime the ink until the desired flow is achieved. Use light pressure for thin lines and increase pressure or angle the brush for broader strokes. When working on non-porous surfaces, allow the ink to dry fully; if extra durability is needed, apply an appropriate clear sealer after drying. Replace the cap securely after use to prevent the tip from drying out.

What to consider before purchase

• Suitable surfaces: paper, cardboard, wood, metal, plastics—test on the intended surface before full application.
• Not formulated as a weatherproof permanent outdoor marker without sealing.
• Line variability depends on user technique and tip angle/pressure.

Usage recommendations

For best results, store horizontally when not in use to maintain even ink distribution. Test stroke width and opacity on a scrap piece before starting a project to determine the optimal pressure and angle for the coral pink PC-5BR Brush.
