Frequently Asked Questions
Can SAKURA Koi colors be blended and diluted with water? Yes, the dye-based ink is fully water-soluble, allowing you to blend colors directly on paper or soften edges using a damp watercolor brush.
What kind of paper is best suited for these markers? For best results, use watercolor paper or smooth heavyweight Bristol board, which withstands wet blending without bleeding through.
