People ask us all the time how to store their pens, so we hope this video was helpful! Be sure to like and share the video with fellow pen nerds. :)
I haven't asked but I am very grateful you made such video, I was always wondering how to store which pens.
I wonder where I can buy those clear storage containers for my horizontal pen needs?
Thank you, thank you, thank you ... from Denmark
I too would like to know where I could get one of horizontal pen storage things like that 😁🙏 please.
How do i store my zebra mildliners?
Also, how satisfying were the pen clicks at 4:40? Should we make an ASMR video? ;)
Yes please
That was my immediate thought when watching haha
Yes
Yes yes yes
Yes please
For Frixion: Putting your paper or notebook in the freezer for a few hours also brings the writing back if you (completely random example *cough*) put a warm plate of food on your notebook and lose several pages of writing. It will come back somewhat faint, but dark enough to read and retrace if needed.
Wait - so heat totally erases the Frixion ink's colouring?? Okay, good to know!!
@@hikikomoriarty yeah, that's what makes it erasable
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes! I learned this after leaving my files in my car on a hot day in Australia!! Thank goodness for freezers 😂
I had stored more than 40 pens that weren't working, hoping that I'd be able to fix them someday. I did try many hacks (wasted more than 3 hrs on that, lol) but none worked. I'm definitely gonna try these, thanks!! And I'm also trying the storage hacks :)
Edit: This totally works! I was able to revive most of my pens and markers, thank you so much for these great tips.
I had stored all my pens till yesterday when I threw them in frustration and girl this video in the recommendation today. 🤦♀️🤦♀️
I don't know why my pens aren't working even though they are new and my friends pen are working smoothly.... I'm frustrated enough 😭 plus exam is about to come😭 now i literally start thinking is something wrong with my hand😭
@@saanvibhargava5755 Lol, hope your pens are working fine now :)
@@FirstName-dl4wl Don't get frustrated, if your pens are simply not working even after trying these hacks, just buy new ones from a different brand. All the best for your exams!
@@chortle05 Hehe yeah they do
When a gel pen gets an air bubble and won't work. I just pull out the cartridge and blow into the back and that usually pushes the remaining gel ink further into the tube.
oh my god that actually works??
Can confirm, this works. I did this just yesterday to a dried up Uniball Signo. Worked like a charm.
my friend one time did kinda like this but dunno what's in his mind he end up getting ink all over his mouth+face. maybe he suck it haha
@@kalduayam1060 whhhaaaaaaattt😂
Been doing it since school years. Didn't know it was revolutionary lol
Whyyy???? Why do you only have this video now after I throw all of my dried pens huhu
Because they want you to buy more from them.
too bad I'm not in school anymore, this trick for dry erase markers is cool.
I mean... you could get yourself a dry erase board 👀
I honestly didn't know about the sideways vs tip down thing!!!
I'd like to revive my dry mechanical pencil.
lol
jajaja
Place is tip up inside of a jar of pickle juice wait 2-3 years take it out and shake it a little should work as new if it doesnT work tey replacing the ink noodlers Apache sunset should work inside any ballpoint pen
Don’t you hate it when they dry out? I keep scribbling, but it never gets any better.
Did you try turning it off and on again? If that doesn't work put it in the fridge overnight.
Again and again JetPens has THE best reviews/tutorials/guides for writing supplies and I wish more companies did this, especially art supply companies! Ordering online always feels like a huge unknown, but I always know exactly what to expect when I order JetPens and then they make nice videos like these toooo. I love you, JetPens.
This video should be titled "how to use your pen the correct way" because I've spent all my life putting all my pens vertically with tips up, and I mean all of them, roller point, capped pens, fountain ones.....etc. and see them finished so fast. Didn't put them horizontally or tip down, this video is so helpful, I wish I had seen it earlier. thank you so much, I will owe you forever, JetPens.
I like how the example for gel pens was the zebra sarasa gray push clip. That's the exact pen I've been having issues with.
Same here
Same
did you end up fixing it in currently having issues but i cant fix it
@@samanthacarlos8830 Even after multiple attempted restorations, I feel like the tolerances on the refill itself just aren't right, either that or it's the ink being weird.
The ink flowed beautifully for a while but dried up again later. It’s an infrequently used pen, not sure if that could have been an issue.
When I buy in bulk, I store the pens, markers and refillsin zip-lock snack bags horizontally in a dark drawer. It also keeps them organized.
That also helps keep the rubber erasers on pencils from drying-out and getting hard and smeary.
The nail polish tip is inspiring. Never thought that I could do so to prevent the brand name from disappearing.
same trick can be used for cheap jewelery to prevent the color from fading/rubbing of :)
@@hasu4399 lamao plz reply me if u see my message
16 years ago, I was gifted with a Parker gift set with one pen containing a Parker 0.7 gel cartridge. Never was able to use it until this year, and of course the pen won't write. Thanks to your hack (placed it in a glass of hot water for 15 minutes), it is now good as new. Wonderful.
Yay! Thanks for acting on some of our video suggestions. You know 99% of us watching this video have more pens than we’ll ever use frequently enough, so these tips are marvelous!
I’ve got one. Ever get a highlighter where the tip seems to get soft or mushy very quickly? Store them in the refrigerator. It won’t fix the mushy one but it will help slow and even prevent it in others. - Sincerely a former medical records worker.
@방지원 try it! Get 2 inexpensive highlighters. Keep one in the refrigerator. Use them both equally. The tip of the one that is kept cold won't get soft nearly as fast.
This is soooo useful. I have 2 gel pens that 'dried' out and I'm so happy you guys created this video! I always learn new things from you guys and I love it
Where can I purchase one of those clear (acrylic?) pen storage shelves?
The best advice for my pens that I have ever discovered, for revival and storage! Thank you, JetPens!
Awesome! This is invaluable info for artists and writers! Thank you so much!
Never knew you could use hot water to revive gel pens. This was awesome! Also I didn't think about using clear nail polish to maintain the print on pens, mine always rub off my sakura pigma microns so this would be useful!
Thanks! 🤗 I've done that dry pen keeping in hot water. It really works. Those whose pens are dry please try it. Very simple idea in 5-10 mins.
Mine worked that way too. Yay🎉
Thank you so much JetPens for sharing all of these tips and hacks , I learned a lot.❤️🥰
i love Jetpens and have been a customer for years. Just discovered this channel and love all the helpful hints. Very useful.
God this is why I love you guys
I'm constantly using the campitable parts link cause I'm someone who always wants to mix refills with barrels, and I end up spending a lot of time myself testing them out to see which ones fit
What a godsend
There are so many different types of pens these days that this is an excellent video to watch. Great advice for everyone.
Superb! This's a complete taking care guide, I ever watch so far. It's given me an overview. Thank :)
LOVE all your helpful tricks videos! Really love all your videos! Keep up the good work!!
Thank you😘, now I can revive all of my dried pens!!😆 I've been keeping those pens just to find a solution to make the ink flow again.😉👍👍👍
And you gave more information than I expected👏😺
I always kept my pens upside down.🙃
Incredible tips to use with our beloved pens bought at JetPens! Thank you for the video :) Hugs from Brazil, stay all of you safe!
@Cristiano Santos, quanto vc pagou no frete? Demorou muito pra chegar? Só é possível o pagamento por cartão de crédito? Agradeço se puder me responder 🙏🏻
@@angelicamorita257 então, eu não me lembro de quanto eu paguei de frete, mas não demorou muito não, coisa de dias e não foi muito caro. Eu usei crédito, mas pode usar PayPal se não me engano.
@@cristianosantos9607 , muito obrigada pela resposta 🙏🏻
Muito difícil encontrar um BR🇧🇷 por aqui!😊
@@angelicamorita257 verdade... Sempre comento os vídeos deles, são AMÁVEIS. Tô de olho na TWSBI Diamond...carinha, mas seria um chamego, sabe? Rs
Thank you so much !!!! This video is so helpful, I'm gonna try some methods so I hope my pens work again 😊
Very informative & helpful! Appreciate you taking the time to make this video. Thank you!
Thanks for tips! I was wondering why none of my frictions ever looked dark! They always looked old and run out! Definitely trying the freezer trick!
This was extremely comprehensive, thank you!
Awesome!!! Most definitely gonna try these informative tips! Thk U!!
Absolutely loved this video!!! Great chart - answers all my questions on the storage of my many different pens. I love JETPENS ♥️. What a wonderful company. I look forward to your videos and all the suggestions & reviews you give. Thank you for your generosity.
👵🏻🐾💕🇨🇦✒️🖊✒️🖊
The pen storage tips are fantastic. Thank you!
I just started collecting pens, I think I have purchased over 40 in the last couple of months. Some are for me but I also bought some with journals to gift to family and friends. I like my collection so far and this video helped me figure out the best way to store my pens, which will save $$$ money in the long run. I have thrown away so many pens that could have been revived. Thank you for your tips/hacks!!!
God bless you all
Wow great video! What is the name of that 3 tier acrylic organizer at the 0:10 second mark? It is so beautiful! Please let me know - I’d like to purchase it!
Thank you! Your advice seems to have worked on my ballpoint pen.
I love ALL of your videos but this one was escpecially helpful. My favourite is the "How to store pens" list. Thank you for that.
Very informative. Thank you very much!
I barely read the title and saw "revive a dry pen" and I clicked on the video. LOL
when the ink of the highlighter is empty, add a little bit of nail polish remover to the cap of a highlighter, store the highlighter cap side down, and you can extend the ink life.
Came as quick as possible... Love the channel!
Okay, I didn't think I'd be able to revive some of my pens, but wow. I rubbed the pen between my palms to heat them up because I was lazy to get my hair dryer, but that actually worked. o_o
i love using Sarasa, thanks for the tips
I took the screenshot of the storing pens chart bcz I barely was able to remember what pen to store what way😜 Thank you JetPens! This is really a unique, must-needed-but-not-usually-spoken-about, informative video💖
A lot of great information. Thabks for sharing
Thank you so much! This is so useful.
Thanks JetPens for great tips...learned something new today.
I really enjoyed this pen tutorial. Thank you for the information on proper pen care.
Thanks, JetPens!! It works with my zebra sarasa, i'm so happy
Thank you! I’ve now moved all my nice pens into my Delde case and laid it on its side.

It actually worked WOW
I had so many dry pens which were not working but had a lot of ink in it
I was going to throw them but when saw this video I thought let's give it a try and it nailed it
Thank you so much
Now I know how to properly store my pens and markers that I use constantly. I love the nail polish hack. I'm going to use it from now on.
At first, I thought my fineliner was gone for good when I saw the clear tip, but I wrote with it and it writes amazingly now! Extremely overjoyed
This is some awsome information and is of great help!!!!
Fabulous. Thank you!

This is such a helpful video thanks much!!!
Very helpful. I can’t believe I just found out you guys are an hour away from me! Wish I could pick up my orders (post-pandemic)! 😂
Ohh, I've tried the clear nail polish one! It's cool I'm not the only one who think that it really helps!
really superb ideas mind blowing tips because I have too many pens dried in and cannot write.I have stationery shop and confused what to do but now clear and want to sell by this video.Thanks a lot.
Super helpful!
Thank you! It worked! All my dried ballpens are working now! 😃
Seems like a very nicely made video, I haven't tried all the methids but the one where you dip your fineliner in hot water really helped, evin though they didnt show a video of it, my UNI PIN fine liner works a lot better now, thx
What an *** E -- X -- C -- E -- L -- L -- E -- N -- T *** video ! It offers helpful information in a friendly, yet authoritative way. The narrator clearly knows what she's talking about ! This is a public service ! THANK YOU !
All the tips helped me. Thanks
Thanks for your valuable tips and advice.
Very useful information...thank you so much
Yes! 1 of the tips helped me! I heated the tips of 2 Uniball Signo Angelics that wouldn’t write, & I got 1 of them flowing again by using my heat tool on the tip in 10-sec increments. Yay! 👏🏼👏🏼
The other 1 just didn’t want to flow...I ended up trying to heat it for a little longer than 10 sec, but that made the tip shoot out. 😳 I already added 1 to my next JetPens order. 👍🏼
This video is so needed!
Great HELP THANKS 😊
You read my mind! Thanks for this video!
Very helpful and interesting. Thank you.
i have some very expensive and some of my fav ones i thought i lost, but found them but sadly dont write. so thanks a lot, ur video helped me a lot.

Where can I get one of those clear plastic horizontal storage holders like the one shown in the video?
