PUMPING/ACTIVATING MARKER

• To activate the valve system, shake the marker with the cap in place (the mixing balls have to be clearly audible).
• Then remove the cap and push down the tip down on a neutral surface a few times until the ink becomes visible.
• The thin 0.8 mm tip only has to be pumped twice.
• Metallic and glitter colours have to be shaken longer as the pigments are heavier.
• Proceed slowly when pumping the Marabu Painters as too much pumping can lead to excessive discharge of ink.
• If the marker was pumped too much, wipe the marker or clean it with water.
• Remove the tip and rinse, dry completely and replace into the shaft, then carefully continue pumping.

PREPARATION OF DISHES FOR WORK

1. Glass and porcelain objects have to be cleaned thoroughly before painting.
2. For especially effective cleaning, scrub the object with an abrasive detergent and a sponge.
3. Then wipe with Marabu Cleaner or with white spirit to ensure it is free from dust and grease.
4. Before painting, rinse off all detergent residue with plenty of clean water.
5. Do not touch the cleaned painting surface with your hands. Fingerprints can prevent the paint from adhering properly.

WORKING WITH A MARKER

• Never leave the markers open for too long, not even during painting, as this can dry out the tip!
• Cutting areas of plates and drinking edges of mugs and glasses should not be painted.
• Outlines painted with the Porcelain Painter should be left to dry briefly before filling in.
• Let the object dry for approx. 4 hours, then heat in the oven at 160 ° C for 30 minutes (do not preheat the oven).
• Then let it cool down in the closed oven.
• Dishwasher safe (up to 50 ° C) after baking in the oven.

AFTER WORK

• Remove any excess paint, always clean the markers after work.
• Close the cap of the Marabu Painter with a “click” after use.
• Always store the markers horizontally.
