Shinhan touch marker help?

[CraftyLeslie09]

I just got the Shinhan touch markers, I think they are the older ones, I won them in a bid on Ebay, I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what kind of card stock works best for these markers? These are my first alcohol markers so if anyone has tips and tricks to share, i'd really appreciate it ! thank you!

My favorite paper is Neenah Classic Crest Solar White.

Thank you for responding ))
Where can I buy this paper? Is it only online?

If you have a xpedit store they carry it (or you can try your local office supply store).

I get mine online since I don't have a local store. I've bought from: Discount Card Stock, Paper, Envelopes & Ink Jet Art Paper for Scrapbooking, Paper Crafting, Stamping, Photos and Wedding Invitations and
Ellen Hutson | Home.

I have these markers and use them on cardstock I buy at Sam's Club. I think it is similar to the Georgia Pacific white cardstock that you can buy at Walmart. I have seen comments that a lot of folks use the Georgia Pacific with Copics and other alcohol based markers like the Shinhan markers.

I use this cardstock for all my card bases, and also for stamping and coloring images.

I have been using the Georgia Pacific Cardstock but it seems to bleed a lot with the touch markers and not blend so well. :(

I rely on Neenah Solar Classic White for coloring with Shinhan Touch Twin markers.

I do use Georgia Pacific for trying out patterns, temporary planning, etc., but never for coloring "the real" project.

That sounds like a good idea !

I use smooth Bristol, which is not a brand but a type of art paper that is thick like card stock. I can get it in my local grocery store in the office/school supply section (Fred Meyer aka Kroger). It works perfectly for all brands of alcohol ink markers as well as stamping.
