How To Remove Clover Chaco Liner

I'thousand constantly on the lookout man for better marker tools since I feel the ones that are readily bachelor all take their shortcomings  Hence why I was curious to try out Clover Chaco Liner Pen that was recommended to me during my livestream Upkeep Friendly Sewing Tools.

The Clover Chaco Liner Pen feels similar a combo of two common material tracing tools; a dressmaker's tracing pen and a tracing bicycle. The pen has a refillable ampule with tailor's chalk and a tapered and thin cycle tip that allows for very sharp lines. In the photo above I used the pen to assign numbers to almost identical pattern pieces for the Burdastyle skirt I'thou making.

The pen is super easy to use and draws much more exact lines than other mark tools I've used. Also, information technology distributes an even corporeality of chalk, which is something my tracing wheel has a problem with. Equally for the drawbacks, I found it a petty harder to describe exact curves compared to directly lines on the wool textile, just the sales blurb says "permits accurate markings for both direct lines for freehand curves" so perhaps this becomes easier with practice?

I likewise tested the pen on shiny workout poly/lycra fabric and it traced well on that type of fabric also.

Then how does the Clover Chaco Liner Pen compare to a regular chalk wheel and a dressmaker's pen?

From left: Clover Chaco, tracing wheel and dressmaker's pen. As you lot tin encounter the lines of the Clover Chako is more even than the tracing cycle and thinner than the pen.

And then how easy practice they rub off? Later on a quick dab, the Chako was considerably less visible than the other two.

After a little more than rubbing, the difference between the 3 was pretty negligible, but the Chaco was still the least visible.

That the Chaco rubs off quicker could be a good affair or a bad affair depending on what you want. After serging and handling the brim pieces the Chaco lines were almost gone, and then I had to put some extra light on the fabric to see which numbers I had on each pattern piece. On the other manus, I do capeesh that it is easy to remove since this minimises the risk of making the lines permanent when pressing the cloth with an iron.Eas

So to sum information technology upwardly:

Pros and cons of the Clover Chaco Liner Pen

Pros

• Super sharp even lines
• Very piece of cake to handle
• Super easy to remove
• Easier to use for freehand cartoon than a regular tracing wheel.

Cons

• Drafting curves are a little harder compared to a pen, but easier than a chalk wheel.
• Perhaps wears off too speedily for some applications?

All in all, I think it is better than my old tracing bike and pen, so probably worth investing in if yous are unhappy with your current marker tools.
