The ZIG Opaque Pens are specialty markers that contain dark red opaque ink which will absorb ultraviolet light and prevent it from being exposed from a negative image.
Perfect for re-touching film negatives or plates when there is a flaw to be fixed or transparent areas to cover that you dont want to be seen in the actual print. The ink will not crack or peel after drying. Also suitable for use on plastic, glass, and metal.
Great for use in fields like screen printing, photography, and publishing!

Excellent Pen!
I bought this weight in addition to some thinner/thicker variations to test out on transparency sheets. I heard good things, but was still nervous, since this was my first time using film pens to create my screen printing stencil on emulsion using sunlight exposure. They're seriously awesome and write so well. My stencil was sharp and even the finest details were blocked from sunlight to result in excellent attention to detail. What really sold me was, it wasn't until after I exposed my screen in sun, that I realize I had forgotten to weigh down my transparency so that it would be perfectly flat on my screen, but despite my error, they still worked beautifully. Will absolutely be ordering again.
