Water and bleach cheap pen test
After spending all week wasting time at work reading all your cheap pen
reviews, I've added my own. I want to mention that Office Depot's pen selection was awful. I then went to Staples, and I was amazed at how organized everything was, and the selection was great. I settled on 3 kinds: Pilot P500 Blue .5mm Uniball Sigmo RT Gel Black/Red/Blue .38mm Staedtler liquid point 7 black/red/blue/green .3mm Long story short, they are all really nice pens. I rinsed the paper in the sink, then used a Clorox Bleach Pen to lay down some bleach. My dad likes the Staedtlers because they lay down a lot of ink. They wont hold up against water, and bleach pretty much erases them. I gave them to my dad but I will keep the green one for "i dont feel like writing in blue" days. I like the P500 because its more or less a gel version of the classic Pilot Precise V5. And I think the best are the Uniball Sigmo RT gel. They have everything. Retractable, comfort grip, and .38mm waterproof bleach resistant ink.

When he was a student, they had little bleach bottles they would use instead of white out. He said there was 2 different bottles, and you would use one after the other to erase the ink. |
