I need paint pens

Can you guys recommend to me some paint pens? I am going to go to Michaels later today to pick up some paint pens, and I need your recommendations on which paint pens to buy.

Deco's are your best bet and they're good quality, too.

What are you using them for? You probably don't need more than a basic Sharpie paint marker.

As long as its oil-based, it wont fade or wash away.

We are doing a project in my art class right now where we are painting acrylic on skateboards. I sanded the skateboard down and put gesso on it.

I fuck hate Gesso. I was doing a 30 x 30 canvas the other day and dropped the bitch right on my new pants. So disappointing. I walked around the studio with a wet crotch for the rest of the day.

Does it stain?

No it comes out easily with water, but at 9 in the morning, starting a 3 hour class, and on the first priming coat of 4, it wasnt a great way to start it.

I decided to go with the Sharpie paint pens. I guess the store I thought was a Michaels turned out to be a Joanns. They don't have as much of a selection. I probably should have gone to the art supply warehouse but I was to lazy.
