Welcome!
Here are the best paint markers for making lines on resin. If you are a resin artist and need to paint the fine lines in between your resin pours then you need a good set of paint pens.
They are also used to add extra accents to the sides of a free form geode art, and cover up accidents.
Not all paint pens will work the best for resin. After making geodes and resin crafts for the past several years, we have some good choices to share with you from our own experiences.
There's a huge difference between quality paint markers and cheap markers. You might think you are saving money, but in the long run, the cheap markers don't hold up to regular use on resin.
Especially when you are going over the rocks, gems and glass parts of the epoxy resin. So invest in a good set from a reputable company.
Also, check out our blog for a step by step geode resin art tutorial where we use paint pens for the final details.
Before you use any marker on your geode resin art, be sure to try out a test piece first to make sure that your marker will work with the technique you are trying.
Always practice on small geode pieces first when trying out a new product.
These paint pens are perfect for geode resin art because they have a fine tip so it's super easy to get those fine lines.

This set is water-based so be sure to do a test before adding resin over the top of these paint pens to make sure that the resin you are using won't cause them to run.
But for finishing work as the last step, they are great for that.
This 3 pack of paint markers gives you three colors. Gold, silver, and copper. The gold looks amazing on dark surfaces and when it was used for drawing lines onto a cobalt blue piece, it was stunning! You can also use them in between cured resin layers.
If you can only choose one paint pen set out of this list, this set is highly recommended. The gold pen is stunning. There's a full review on the gold leafing pen up on the blog right here: Krylon Gold Paint Pen review
