Some artists save a brush just for this because it gets gunked up and can&#8217;t be used for much else afterwards, although I have found you can prevent ruining a brush by coating the hairs with some washing up liquid before you start using the brush. But if you prefer not to use a brush then as these are marker pens, you already have the applicator built in. There are two sizes of nib in the pump markers &#8211; 2mm and 4mm and you can change the 2mm nib out for a harder tipped <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/molotow-1-5mm-crossover-exchange-tip-pack-of-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">1.5mm nib<\/a> that is a lot finer. <\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1380087\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1380087\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_4mm.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_4mm.jpg\" alt=\"Molotow Masking liquid\" width=\"1200\" height=\"897\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1380087\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_4mm.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_4mm-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_4mm-768x574.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_4mm-1024x765.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_4mm-620x463.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_4mm-940x703.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1380087\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Molotow Masking Fluid Marker 4mm.<br \/>The white areas were masked and rubbed off.<br \/>The blue lines are masking fluid left on to show how it looks.<br \/>The crumbs show what the masking fluid looks like when you rub it off.<br \/>Blue paint is a watercolour wash.<br \/>Green paint is an acrylic wash.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<hr>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1380086\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1380086\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_2mm.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_2mm.jpg\" alt=\"Molotow MaskingLiquid\" width=\"1200\" height=\"895\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1380086\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_2mm.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_2mm-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_2mm-768x573.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_2mm-1024x764.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_2mm-620x462.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.jacksonsart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Molotow_Masking_Fluid_2mm-940x701.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1380086\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Molotow Masking Fluid Marker 2mm.<br \/>I didn&#8217;t pump the marker after having used it a lot, so the nib was not full and so the masking was too thin and this one wasn&#8217;t fully masked.

Good for thick and thin lines.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<hr>\n<h5>Quantity to apply<\/h5>\n<p>The markers lay the masking fluid down evenly and thinly, just as required. You will need to pump the marker occasionally to be sure the tip is filled, if the tip is a bit dry it will not lay down enough and the paint can seep through when it is applied. You pump the marker to fill the nib from the barrel by placing the nib on a scrap of paper on your table and pressing down a few times, you will see the blue fluid flow into the tip. If you are using the brush marker you also need to pump these but not on the table, instead you pump the Molotow Brush Markers by turning the cap around and pumping into the the slot on top. Using either a brush or the refill bottle as an applicator can mean areas of masking fluid that are too thick and in my testing those very thick areas left blue stains on the paper. So the key is to apply just enough but not too much!<\/p>\n<h5>Removing the Masking Fluid<\/h5>\n<p>The masking fluid is blue so you can see your marks while you are painting. I painted over the dried masking liquid with both a watercolour wash (Ultramarine Blue) and an acrylic wash (Phthalo Green). It worked equally well with the watercolour paint and the acrylic that was used like watercolour (with a lot of water). There was no bleed-through the masking liquid, it was bright white and it all removed completely in small crumbs. (I also tried it with light and heavy applications of acrylic paint, but as I expected it didn&#8217;t work because the masking fluid was sealed under the acrylic.) The bottle warns to remove the masking fluid from your dried painting within two days, this is standard practice for all masking fluids, they get harder to remove as they age.<\/p>\n<p><a
