    What's the application?

    I heart the old Sakura fat markers.

    I fucked with the Sakura streaks.

    I was always into making the homemade joints (deodorant bottles, VHS tapes, kiwi shoe polish tubes,etc...those were the days.

    Back when I actually racked my fats off of oven cleaners in stores.

    eh, VHS tapes?

    Homemade shit like that always ran too much, looked like someone shit splatted and it ran down the side of the electrical box (or whatever).

    and no no no, primo was Elmer's spray adhesive. Looking back there had to be a bunch of annoyed people who got home all ready to spray adhesive things to other things only to find that there was no cap on the can.

    THE REALNESS:

    A beer bottle... I mean, really, come on.

    Those Sakuras (and a little like the Magnums above) would always get all dented up.

    I also remember thinking it was funny that there were Magnum wide markers _and_ Magnum 40s. Kind of like a miscreants twofer theme.

    Daubers with One-Shot lead sign paint cut with turpentine do the job.

    because i wanted to know if they were paint markers or not?

    Yeah, ha. They're my favourite paint-markers and quite affordable considering the quality. They last for quite some time too.

    Also, if you're looking for some really fine ones, getting a set of Staedtler Triplus fineliners is a good bet.

    I jus copped some of these...im hoping ill be able to get some nice blends with them otherwise ill be dissapointed since they cost me 20 quid! Still waiting for delivery at the mo. Sharpies are ok for details too.

    Ive now got so many crap pens lying around my place that ive picked up on the cheap...its getting ridiculous.

    I remember how stoked I was about my first Design markers. The first couple drawings I did bled through two sheets of sketchbook paper, messing up the older drawings underneath. And,even with my door close and a window cracked, my sister used to complain about the toxic fumes in *her* room. Good times.
