Pilot Marker Pens in the UK

This is a genuine question, but what is special about these and their use for collectors?

Hi Andrew,

I have been using these pens on my brass cartridges for about six months after reading what other collectors had to say about them, which I have found to be true.
The ink will not rub off with handling, is easily removed with Acetone and will leave no staining on the cartridge once removed.

Ah, I see.
I had wondered actually if anyone marked the cases with what they are.
Might give one a go now I have a few items.

Hi Andrew,

Make sure you give the cartridges a wash with detergent and water first, to get rid of any grease or oil as the ink will smudge when you handle them if you don't.

Mike.
