paint pen

Opaque ink stick

A paint pen is a marker-like tool that dispenses paint rather than ink, used for writing or drawing on surfaces where regular markers won't adhere—metal, glass, plastic, fabric.

The paint flows through a felt or valve tip when pressed: I labeled the storage bins with a paint pen.

Popular for crafts, automotive touch-ups, and industrial marking.
