Montana Acrylic markers

Spray-can colours in a fine-tipped marker

The Montana Acrylic Marker packs the opaque, matte colour that Montana is known for into a pen you can control. The extra fine 0.7mm tip is made for detail: thin outlines, small lettering, fine patterns, and precise highlights, drawn with the coverage of real acrylic paint instead of the see-through ink of an ordinary marker.

The colours are matched to the Montana GOLD spray can range, so street artists and designers can carry a shade from a mural into sketchbook work or fine finishing details without it clashing. The paint is water-based, highly pigmented, and lightfast, and it dries to a permanent, water-resistant, abrasion-proof finish.

Surfaces it works on
Canvas, paper, wood, metal, glass, and walls. Test on a small area first if you’re using a new surface.

How to use

1. Shake the marker well, with the cap on, so the paint mixes properly.
2. Press the tip down on a scrap surface a few times to start the flow of paint. The pump valve controls how much comes out.
3. Draw as you would with a pen, using light pressure for thin lines.
4. Let each layer dry before adding another colour on top, to keep the colours clean.
5. Replace the cap straight away after use, and store the marker flat.
6. To protect finished work, especially outdoors, seal it with Montana GOLD varnish.

Tips for better results

1. Press the tip lightly. A firm, solid tip like this one doesn’t need much pressure, and pressing too hard can flood the line.
2. Don’t over-pump the valve. A little paint goes a long way, and too much can cause blobs.
3. On smooth surfaces such as glass and metal, let the paint dry fully before handling.
4. You can thin the paint a little with water for a softer, watercolour-like effect.
5. Clean the tip with water if it becomes blocked, and keep the cap on tightly when you’re not using the marker.
6. Replace the tip if it wears down. Replacement tips and refills are available.

Good to know

• The paint is matte and permanent once dry. Seal outdoor work with varnish for extra protection.
• Colours on a screen look different in person, so check the swatch on the pack.
• Keep out of reach of young children.
