Best Silver pen for glossy photos?

Hi All

I am new here and wanted to ask if anyone can reccomend a good silver type pen that works well on glossy photos. No problems with the black sharpie but on darker backgrounds I am looking for something to standout more.

I have tried a Berol & Pilot metallic marker both either flake or rub off. Also tried a silver sharpie, which does stay on better but tends to smear if touched.

Thanks!

Try Sharpie oil-based (not water based) fine point paint pens. Almost all of them work wonderfully on dark backgrounds, take less than a minute to dry completely and seem pretty reliable. Deco also makes good paint pens.

I recommend fine tip permanent markers of sharpie, bought these to use in our wedding guest book the colours beeing metallic give a more premium and expensive finish they seem to work on multiple surfaces some pages are glossy and some are grained a year later and the pens still work and seem to have lots of ink left
