Let's Engineer the Right Marker
Can't find a marker that does exactly what you need? Arro-Mark® will engineer a custom marker to your spec.
Why Oil and Grease Cause Standard Markers to Fail
Oil and grease form a film on the surface that standard ink can't penetrate. Instead of bonding to the material underneath, the ink sits on top of the oily residue, smears on contact, or wipes away before it has a chance to cure. Mighty Marker® oily surface formulas are engineered to cut through that film and bond directly to the surface underneath, even on equipment that's still wet with oil or grease.
Where Oily Surface Marking Matters Most
Oily surface marking comes up anywhere equipment or material is handled with oil or grease still on it: machine shops and metal fabrication floors, automotive and equipment maintenance bays, oilfield and pipeline equipment, and warehouse machinery mid-service. If the surface hasn't been degreased before marking, it's an oily surface application, not a standard one.
