Being an oil based paint, oil markers are very popular amongst all ages - especially children, though they are generally not recommended for those under the age of 3. The markers offer an excellent trade-off between being permanent, and still being able to be washed off your hands with some soapy water. It is a good idea, especially for younger children, to wear an apron to guard against any paint getting on their clothes as once the paint is dry it will be permanent.

On porous or matt surfaces, such as wood, fabric, paper and stone the paint from good-quality oil markers will dry permanently. On glossy surfaces, such as glass, mirror, ceramic or metal the paint will not be completely permanent once the paint has dried. Use a paint fixer.

One of the biggest advantages Sharpie oil based paint markers fine point have over painting with a brush is that they tend to be less fiddly and messy. No cleaning of brushes and pallets is required.
