Chalk markers use an ink that is erasable and designed to dissolve in water, making them ideal for temporary markings that can be easily wiped away. In contrast, paint markers contain a water-based but permanent ink that resists washing off, suitable for enduring projects and surfaces. Additionally, chalk markers are generally designed to be finer and more precise, which lends itself well to detailed artwork and precise text, whereas paint markers are typically broader and more robust, better suited for bold lines and filling larger areas."}]},{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":" "}]},{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":"What is the difference between alcohol markers and paint markers? ","bold":true}]},{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":"Alcohol markers and paint markers differ primarily in the type of ink they use and the surfaces they are best suited for. Alcohol markers utilize a permanent, alcohol-based ink, which allows for vibrant colors and smooth application on various non-porous surfaces like plastic and metal. On the other hand, paint markers contain a water-based ink, making them ideal for porous surfaces such as paper and wood, where they provide excellent opacity and coverage."}]},{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":" "}]},{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":"Shop artist brush pens at Art to Art today.
