Copic Marker Nib Replacement

Introduction

Tired of buying new Copic Markers? Wish you could just simply replace the nib? Well, this is the guide for you!

After using a Copic Marker for a long period of time and the nib begins to curl and fray, it is time to replace it. The ink also should be refilled simultaneously at this point as it is running low. The only tools needed to complete this guide are some paper towels and a pair of tweezer!

      • Press on the middle of the marker 3 times to insure ink is spread throughout.

      • Repeat steps 3 - 5 if the amount of ink is insufficient.
