It has a pump mechanism allowing more or less paint to flow to the nib, and therefore very good dosage when applied to the surface to be painted. There is a replacement tip in the lid in order to optimise the use of each decoMarker. In case the nib originally mounted in the holder is damaged or unusable, proceed to replace it.

First use:

1. Shake the marker with the lid closed for a minimum of 5 seconds.
2. Prime the tip (test surface different to the object to be decorated) press on the tip several times on a sheet of paper to soak it with paint. Priming is fast. There is no need to apply quick repetitive pressure. Keeping constant pressure on the tip once it partially retracts into the marker enables the paint to pass through the pump and load the nib.
3. Test on a sheet of paper or ideally on the surface to be applied to Subsequent uses:

The same recommendations as the first use. It is advisable to clean the nib holder with paper towels, in case of accidentally applying excessive dosage of paint, and before clipping the lid for storage. Air travel can cause an excess of ink on the tip and cap. Carefully open the cap and, if necessary, clean the tip and cap before use.
