POSCA PC-5M Paint Marker | 1.8-2.5mm Bullet | Gold | Pack of 1 - Rock Art

Paint straight onto stone, wood, canvas or card in a single opaque coat. The POSCA PC-5M pushes water based pigment paint through a medium bullet tip at 1.8 to 2.5 mm, so gold sits solid over both pale and dark surfaces with no solvent smell and no bleed. Best for metallic lettering, festive accents and warm highlights.

Specifications

Before You Buy

• POSCA is permanent on porous surfaces such as paper, card, wood, terracotta and canvas, and stays wipeable on smooth non porous surfaces such as glass, ceramic and metal until you seal it.
• Shake and prime the tip before the first stroke, or the marker runs dry on you.
• One marker, one colour. This pack contains a single gold marker, not a set.
• We state no toxicity, skin or food contact rating for this marker; read the maker's own pack information if that matters for your use.

Ideal For

• Rock and pebble painting
• Canvas, wood and MDF craft
• Journaling, lettering and poster work
• Hobby artists, students and beginners

Perfect for

• Metallic name lettering, rakhi and gift tag detail
• Painted pebbles, planters and terracotta pots

Compatibility

Works with: paper, card, wood, MDF, canvas, terracotta, stone and pebbles, fabric, glass, ceramic, metal and plastic.

Pairs well with: acrylic paint as a base coat, and a varnish or sealer to fix work on smooth surfaces.

Not suitable for: pieces that must survive washing or outdoor weather without a sealed coat, and large flat fills, where a brush covers ground faster.

How to Use

1. Shake the marker hard with the cap on so the mixing ball loosens the paint.
2. Press the tip down on scrap paper until the colour flows evenly.
3. Work in one steady stroke, and let each layer dry before you overlay the next colour.
4. Rinse the tip under water if the colour clouds after overlaying, then blot it dry.
5. Seal finished work on glass, ceramic or plastic with a varnish so it stays put.

Frequently Asked Questions

How wide a line does the POSCA PC-5M draw?
It lays a 1.8 to 2.5 mm line from a medium bullet tip, in a single gold shade.

How is the PC-5M different from the PC-3M?
The PC-5M is the medium bullet at 1.8 to 2.5 mm, so it fills shapes and letters faster. The PC-3M is the fine bullet at 0.9 to 1.3 mm and is the one to pick for outlines and small detail.

Can I use it on glass, ceramic or plastic?
Yes. The paint covers smooth surfaces well, but it stays wipeable on them, so seal the finished piece with a varnish if it needs to last. On porous surfaces such as wood, stone and canvas it is permanent on its own.

Will gold show up on a dark surface?
Yes. The paint is opaque, so gold reads clearly over black, navy and dark wood as well as over pale backgrounds.
