Kuretake Zig Fabricolor Fabric Marker Silver Fine Tip Made in Japan for T-Shirts Bags and Canvas

Kuretake Zig Fabricolor Silver Fabric Marker gives you a permanent, wash-resistant Silver ink on both light and dark fabrics — ideal for decorating T-shirts, bags, canvas, denim, cotton, and any textile project that needs a precise, lasting metallic finish.

This is the original Kuretake Zig Fabricolor Permanent Fabric Marker in Silver, made in Japan by Kuretake Co., Ltd. — one of Japan's most respected art and craft pen manufacturers. The marker features a fine tip for controlled, detailed application, Silver pigment ink that is permanent after ironing, and a no-bleed formula that works on both light and dark fabric surfaces. It requires no heat gun or special setting agent — a simple iron-set makes the colour wash-resistant and long-lasting on fabric.

Pro Tips

Before use, shake the marker and press the tip gently on a scrap piece of fabric a few times to get the ink flowing evenly. For the cleanest lines, place a piece of cardboard inside the garment to prevent bleed-through to the layer underneath. Once your design is complete and fully dry, iron the fabric from the reverse side for 3 to 4 minutes on a cotton setting to heat-set the ink and make it wash-resistant. Avoid washing for at least 24 hours after iron-setting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the Silver ink show up on dark fabrics?
A: Yes. The Zig Fabricolor Silver uses opaque pigment ink that is visible on both light and dark fabric surfaces, including black, navy, dark grey, and deep red fabrics.

Q: Is the ink permanent without ironing?
A: The ink dries permanently on the fabric surface but becomes fully wash-resistant only after heat-setting with an iron. Without ironing, the colour may fade or wash out over time. Iron-setting takes just 3 to 4 minutes on a cotton heat setting.

Q: Will the ink bleed or spread on fabric?
A: No. The Zig Fabricolor has a no-bleed formula designed to stay in place on fabric fibres. For the sharpest lines, work on taut, smooth fabric and use the fine tip with light, steady pressure.

Q: Can I use this on canvas bags and cotton tote bags?
A: Yes. Canvas and cotton are among the best surfaces for this marker. The ink absorbs cleanly and the fine tip allows for detailed lettering and designs on bag surfaces.

Q: How do I store the marker to keep it from drying out?
A: Always replace the cap firmly after use. Store the marker horizontally to keep the ink flow even at both ends of the barrel. Avoid exposing it to extreme heat or direct sunlight.
