Hi everyone ,
I am a newbie and what a fantastic friendly site this is.
I have been using the copic marker pens and the aircan system with it ,but do you have to heat set this after as i find when handling the bears you still get some rub off. Any suggestions any one.

I use the Copic pens - never found any rub off and don't heat set it. Are you using it on mohair?
Marion
It is recommended that you do heat set the copic dye. I use a blow dryer. Some people put them in a very low oven. I have done it both ways heat setting and not setting. I only had one that the color faded until I heat set it.

Hi Marion and Donna ,
I am using mohair , but I will try the heat setting with a blow dryer , My husband says i burn everything in the oven,so I don.t think I'll
chance that ,

have you tried to do a search on the board using "copic markers"? There is a lot of prior information that might be useful to you.
I also have the airbrush system but do really use it since I prefer to just use the markers themselves.
