How does the erasing work?

Friction from the tip rubs the thermo-sensitive ink away. There is no eraser dust and the paper is not damaged.

Can I use these on official documents or checks?

No. The ink can be erased and fades with heat, so use a permanent pen for signatures and legal papers.

Are the pens refillable?

Yes. The barrels take FriXion refills, which are sold separately.

What point size and colors are included?

Each pen has a 0.7mm fine point, and the pack holds assorted ink colors.

Will the ink smudge for left-handed writers?

The gel ink dries quickly, which reduces smudging, though very fast writing can still smear.

Do they have a pocket clip?

No. The ColorSticks barrel is capped and clipless, so it will not clip to a pocket or notebook.
