Pentel

The Pentel brand is very hard to find in Germany. As far as I know only a few shops do have Pentel Products and if so, it is mostly correction pens or fine liner paint marker. I need to check for more information about the company…

All of the Pentel markers I have are toluol/xylene-based and for that reason they have an intensive smell. The Pentel White 100W paint marker I got years ago in a Hip Hop shop. I never used it, I bought it just cause it looks nice. The red and the blue ones are similar to the edding 3000. The red one is about twenty years old, the blue one, still in its plastic wrapping I found some weeks ago in an art and craft shop for cheap. Although its a newer model – the cap looks different – it still contains toluol and xylene.

The big Pentel Felt Pen is from the early nineties. The marker is still available abroad, but the labeling is different now.
