PC-5BR: BOLD BRUSH TIP New for 2025, the POSCA PC-5BR Brush Marker boasts a bigger, juicier brush tip that's easier to use than ever. Gently pump the soft brush tip against a sheet of paper, and you'll see the tip fill with POSCA paint. Then, you can make flowing, calligraphic marks on almost any surface. Learn more about POSCA paint markers below: POSCA 101 Uni POSCA Paint Markers were introduced to the Japanese market in 1983 by Mitsubishi Pencil Co., an innovative manufacturer that had already expanded well beyond its original business of making wood-cased pencils. Like Mitsubishi's other Uni brand products, POSCA quickly swept into shops, offices, and studios worldwide, thanks to its non-toxic, opaque ink that covers and flows like paint—but eliminates the mess, odor, and inconvenient application of other paint markers. POSCA works on pretty much any surface, from paper to metal, so you can use it for art, craft projects, addressing envelopes, marking your name on your lunch, and quite a bit more. These brightly colored markers are popular with graffiti artists and mixed-media painters, schoolteachers and calligraphers. POSCA paint is permanent on porous surfaces like paper and wood, and removable with Windex from non-porous surfaces like glass and metal.
