Default Anyone tried Bic Correction Pen instead of. .

. . . the uniball gel pen? I read the thread earlier this week about the question of availability of the gel pens. While going through my drawer yesterday I found a Bic Wite-Out pen and wondered if it would work? Haven't had a chance to try it myself, but it might be an idea. Just thinking . . .

I wonder if you could emboss with it while it was still wet?

In my experience, the white out pen "ink" can chip off the paper, especially if put on too thick. Do it and let us know.

By the way, SU hasn't heard anything official about the Signo pens being discontinued. Just thought I'd let you know.

Before the Uniball Signo became available, I tried the Bic described above. I was unhappy with the results. They may have improved it since then, but once you've had the Cadillac of White Gel Pens, it's *very* hard to settle for anything less . . . :(
