A breakthrough in writing technology has made available the erasable pen you have always been waiting for. These new pens from Pilot erase by FRICTION, they are like a magic pen for adults! The pens have a special rubber end to rub the thermo sensitive ink away with, thus no eraser by-products are produced, yet the ink disappears magnificently (and the rubber never wears out!) The pen writes smoothly, in vibrant colors, and erases without a trace! Best of all, they are made of 76% recycled plastic.
Interestingly enough, the ink in these pens will actually reappear
when the temperature reaches below – 10 C (under 14 Fahrenheit). A
freezer is sufficiently cold enough to make the ink start to reappear.
It is like a magic pen for adults!
Because the ink in this pen is thermo sensitive, we do not advise for
it to be left in hot cars, used for mailing, or subjected to a
condition that exposes it to a lot of friction.
See how well the FriXion pen erases on JetPens.com TV:
I really love this pen, the only thing I don't like about it, is that it is a
little too light for my taste. It is darker than the black which I am pretty
satisfied with.
It writes really smooth, though it does take about 2 seconds to get the flow
going, after that it is pretty amazing from there.
I would recommend this pen to anyone who loves the idea of erasing ink :)
This one is my favorite pen. It's the only kind I've seen that erases
completely. Sometimes there's a bit of a smudge if you try to erase something
immediately after you write it, but wait a couple of seconds and it'll be good.
The only thing I dislike is the eraser being on the back of the pen instead of
the cap. Also, kind of annoying having to remember to not leave it in the car in
hot weather, but that's partly because where I live is hot about 9 months of the
year _._
I find that not only does the ink look washed out when I use these, but the ink
gets clogged and the pen skips or stops writing altogether. Not so great and I
won't buy anymore!
