Just as the title suggests. Im looking to buy some decent pen/markers to use on tiles because im sick of the markers i buy, drying out after a bit of addy, water or even grout touches the tip.

when the americans first started to go in to space they realised that pens wouldn't work in zero gravity. they spent over one million dollars on inventing a pen that would work in space.
the Russians had no such problems.
why because they used apencil.🙂

The pencil creates a bit of mess though apparently and Russia did start to use pens.
Even more clever in a way because America develops them: Russia just bought a pack of 20 black, 20 blue, 6 red and 2 green (who even uses green pens?! Where do they go? I've never even seen one that's not on a shelf!).

Is there anything around for marking hi glaze polished porcelain?
I've been using sharpies, but they do lose the point after a while.

The Rainbow Chalk Grout pen revives tired, dirty grout returning your tiles to their former glory and making your kitchen or bathroom beautiful again. What’s more, the anti-fungal formulation halts future mould and bacteria build up, keeping the steamier rooms in your home beautiful for longer. It works for both wall and floor tiling and we have two different nib sizes to cater for differing grout widths.
