If your brush, soft chisel, or 1.5 mm bullet tip does fray, you can extend the life of the pen by reversing the tip. Simply pull the tip out with a pair of tweezers, then turn it around and reinsert it into the pen. This does not work with fineliner PITT Pens, calligraphy pens, or the larger bullet tips. I am trying to figure out what is causing a problem with my Faber-Castell Grip (M nib) - namely, the fact that every ink that I put in the pen has a peculiar tendency to keep flowing and writing without any issues, but becoming very dark and brownish. The pen was used for quite some time and was running out of gas. So I decided to give this technique a try: opened the top part (shown separately on the image below - please do not be lazy and get pliers - I used my teeth and it's not the smartest move - the cap is hard!), added a few drops of alcohol and - VIOLA!

Faber-Castell uses the following designations: B = Black H = Hard HB = Hard Black I would flush the pen a couple of times with soapy water and water to see if that fixes the problem. if it doesnt then I would look at the nib and see if theres misalignment on the nibs and if there is I would realign the tines. Finally if both do not work I would try smoothing with micromesh. J9HvCN.
