Default Spica glitter pens by copic ???????

Hey girls are any of you having problems with the clear spica glitter pens? This makes about my 4th pen and they have all clogged up on me after slight use. What am I doing to these pens????? I love the sparkle they give...for a couple uses anyways.

Thanks stampers!

Not had any problems with the four I have.

The only thing I can think of is storage position. Are you keeping yours flat? It says on the barrel to store them horizontally so if you're keeping yours upright maybe that's causing the clogging?

Wow, I have four or maybe five of these and they've been working fine for months. In fact, my clear one is maybe 6 months old.

Definitely make sure you're storing horizontally!

I'm on my second clear Spica pen. I don't really think I use it that much but my second one doesn't leave sparkles anymore. I do store it flat. Have several other ones-red, black, gold, green-and they all still leave a sparkly trail. Think I have used them almost as much as the clear one. Thought it was just me using it so much. The tip doesn't appear clogged but will just have to buy another one, I guess. Do love the subtle sparkle it adds.
