Regular Sharpies are not oil-based; they are primarily alcohol-based permanent markers. Their ink contains dyes that are suspended in an alcohol solution, allowing for quick drying and vibrant colors. However, Sharpie also offers oil-based paint markers, which are designed for different applications and surfaces.

Does the copic blender work with sharpies?

The Copic colorless blender is designed specifically for use with Copic markers, which have a different alcohol-based ink composition than Sharpies. While you can attempt to use a Copic blender with Sharpies, it may not yield the desired blending effects, as Sharpies use a permanent ink that doesn't blend in the same way. Additionally, the Copic blender may damage the Sharpie tips or affect the marker's performance. For best results, it's advisable to use blending tools compatible with the specific marker type.
