Why Choose Genuine Uni POSCA Paint Markers?

Uni POSCA paint pens are a go-to for creatives across Australia thanks to their versatile, water-based pigment ink. Unlike standard permanent markers, POSCA ink is non-toxic, odourless, and lightfast, so artwork stays vibrant and doesn't fade over time. Because the paint is fully opaque, you can layer light colours over dark backgrounds once dry with no bleeding or streaking.

What Surfaces Do POSCA Pens Work On?

POSCA markers bind to almost any material, which is a big part of their appeal. They can be used permanently on porous surfaces, or removed easily from non-porous materials unless sealed with a clear varnish.

  • Porous (Permanent): Canvas, heavy paper, cardboard, raw wood, terracotta, textiles, and concrete.

  • Non-Porous (Removable/Sealable): Glass, mirrors, glazed ceramics, plastics, metals, and PVC skateboard or surfboard decks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can POSCA paint markers be used on fabric?

Yes. POSCA markers adhere well to natural and synthetic fabrics. For a wash-resistant finish, heat-set the design once fully dry by placing a cloth over it and ironing at medium heat for 2–3 minutes. Avoid washing for 24 hours after heat-setting.

Can POSCA markers be used on shoes?

Yes. Canvas and leather shoes are one of the most popular surfaces for POSCA customisation. Apply thin layers and allow each coat to dry fully before adding the next. Seal the finished design with a matte or gloss leather sealant for long-term durability.

Are POSCA paint markers safe for skin?

POSCA markers are AP-certified non-toxic but are not designed or tested for skin contact. For body art or face painting, use products specifically formulated and approved for skin application.

Are POSCA markers safe for classroom use?

Yes. POSCA paint markers are AP-certified non-toxic and odour-free, making them suitable for classroom use from primary school age. The water-based ink cleans up easily from most surfaces before it dries.

Does Ink Depot offer bulk or school pricing on POSCA markers?

Yes. Ink Depot supplies schools, universities, and government departments across Australia with POSCA class sets and bulk packs. School accounts with net-30 invoicing are available — contact our team to apply.
