Dried out Micron...Help?

[Marmilade]

I left my Micron Pen uncap for about 30 Minutes or less.
The pen stopped working slightly, and I heard you can put vinegar on it to make it work again.

Once I put the vinegar on the tip, it stopped working all together.

Can someone help me?

I'd say that take this as a learning experience, buy a new pen and don't leave it open.

I'm not sure what to do-- maybe if you soaked the nib in water for a few minutes?

Pretty much what TinyBird said. That Micron's pretty much fucked. Just get a new one and try to remember that marker pens use solvents like alcohol or acetone.

Thanks for the feedback, luckily, the vinegar did work, and the pen just needed to be worked a bit.

Soaking it in water a little did help restore it fully though, so thank sanya!

Hello,

I have not tried these techniques with Microns, seeing as how the nib is so tiny. They are worth a shot though and may come in handy in the future.
