Sharpie 2218126 is an acrylic marker with opaque white ink and a round tip, supplied as a single piece in a black barrel. It is designed for marking and decorating dark or colored surfaces where a strong, visible white line is required. The water-based acrylic formula lays down paint-like coverage that dries to an opaque finish suitable for paper, metal, wood, ceramic, glass, stone and canvas.
Advantages
The marker delivers bold, highly visible white lines on both light and dark backgrounds and its acrylic ink layers without bleeding. Colors (in this case opaque white) build up evenly to create a paint-like effect, and the round tip gives consistent line width. The ink is water-based so it does not typically soak through porous media, and the marker is ready to use without shaking — simply uncapped and applied.
Suitable for
- Creating highlights and accents on dark paper and cardstock
- Decorative details on wood, metal, ceramic, glass, and stone
- Signage, labels, and craft projects requiring opaque white markings
When it may not be suitable
This single white acrylic marker is not intended to replace permanent solvent-based paint for heavy-duty outdoor applications where long-term weather resistance is required. On highly flexible or very rough surfaces the opaque layer may wear or crack over time. For very fine detail work, a smaller specialist tip might be preferable.
Key specifications
- Ink type: water-based acrylic (opaque white)
- Tip shape: round / conical
- Barrel color: black
- Quantity: 1 piece
- Visible on: paper, metal, wood, ceramic, glass, stone, canvas
How to use
Remove the cap and press the round tip gently against the surface to begin applying ink. For even coverage, apply multiple light passes rather than heavy single strokes and allow each layer to dry before adding another. Store the marker horizontally for best tip and ink performance. No shaking is required before use.
What to consider before purchase
- Designed for opaque white marking rather than a full set of colours
- Not a solvent-based permanent paint; check suitability for outdoor exposure and flexible substrates
- Round tip size determines line width—confirm it meets your detail requirements
Usage recommendations
Use the Sharpie 2218126 acrylic marker for adding visible white accents on dark surfaces and for craft or signage work. Apply in thin layers for best opacity, allow drying between coats, and store horizontally to maintain consistent ink flow.
