It works on canvas, timber, plastic, metal and fabric, and it is permanent and waterproof once dry.

How to Use Your Kent Urban 30mm Paint Marker

  1. Shake it. Cap on, shake well until the mixing ball rattles freely.
  2. Prime the nib. On scrap cardboard, press the flat nib down gently a few times until the paint soaks right across the full width.
  3. Test first. Do a swipe on scrap, or on a hidden spot of the surface, to check the flow and colour.
  4. Keep the nib flat. Hold the marker so the whole 30mm edge touches the surface, then pull long, smooth, slightly overlapping strokes.
  5. Let it dry, then layer. Water based acrylic dries fast. Wait until it is touch dry before a second coat or another colour.
  6. Store flat. Click the cap on firmly and store the marker flat.

Getting the Most From a 30mm Flat Nib

Think of the 30mm as a paint brush that never needs dipping. Keep the whole flat edge on the surface and pull long, even strokes that slightly overlap. Let the first coat dry before adding a second, rather than going back over wet paint.

Sketch big pieces lightly in pencil or chalk first, block in the large areas with the 30mm, then come back once dry with the 10mm for shapes and lettering and a fine nib for outlines and highlights.

Project idea: paint a blue fade background on a big canvas, let it dry, then put a full colour piece over it with a 10mm set.

Need the same colour for detail and lettering? Grab the 1mm Blue, 3mm Blue, 6mm Blue or 10mm Blue. See every colour in the Kent Urban 30mm Wide Flat paint markers, or browse the full Kent Urban acrylic paint marker range.

Questions About the Kent Urban 30mm Blue

Can I use the Kent Urban 30mm Blue on a denim jacket?

Yes. Kent lists fabric among the surfaces the range works on. Use it on smooth, tightly woven denim or canvas, build the colour in light layers, let it dry thoroughly and wash it gently inside out.

What is a 30mm paint marker used for?

Big coverage. A 30mm Wide Flat nib is made for backgrounds, huge letter fills, blacking out decks, large canvas pieces and legal walls. One pass covers a strip about as wide as a decent house painting brush, so big areas go down fast and even.

What surfaces does the Kent Urban 30mm paint marker work on?

Kent Urban uses water based acrylic paint ink that works on wood, metal, glass, plastic, canvas, fabric, stone and most smooth surfaces. On glossy surfaces like glass, glazed tiles and shiny plastic, wipe off any grease first, let each layer dry fully, and seal the piece if it will be handled a lot.

How do I start a new Kent Urban 30mm marker?

Shake it well with the cap on until you hear the mixing ball rattle. Then hold it nib down on scrap cardboard and press the flat nib down gently a few times until the paint has soaked right across all 30mm. A nib this wide takes a little longer to fill than a fine marker, so be patient and never pump it hard.

Can I use Kent Urban paint markers outdoors?

Yes. The ink is UV resistant and waterproof once dry, and Kent rates the range for indoor and outdoor use. For anything that lives outside, like a painted deck or a piece on a legal wall, a clear outdoor varnish over the top keeps it fresh for longer.

How do I get smooth, streak free coverage with a 30mm marker?

Keep the whole flat edge in contact with the surface and pull long, steady strokes in one direction, overlapping each one slightly. Let the first coat dry, then add a second across the first if you want it solid. Scrubbing back and forth over wet paint is what causes streaks.

How should I store Kent Urban paint markers?

Store them flat with the caps clicked on firmly. Flat storage keeps the paint spread evenly through the marker, and a tight cap stops the wide nib drying out between projects.
