STAEDTLER HEXAGONAL Mechanical Pencil

Does anyone know wether the lettering on the HEXAGONAL Mechanical Pencil can be removed without damaging the coating? If this nonsense can be removed without a trace, I’ll buy one.

Staedtler sure does ‘talk’ a lot :joy:

I have the feeling it will simply wear off if you use it.

I’m trying to do the same to a fully black 3.15 Lamy Scribble I have that has imprints from a German depot/bricolage mag I think it is. I’ve been eroding it gently by using it, and sometimes I wet my fingers with water and scrub very gently along the body… hopefully it wont’ get any markings or visible residue when it erodes all the way :crossed_fingers:

I actually like detailed lettering – especially on the old Lumograph it’s great. But putting the text “Hexagonal mechanical pencil” on a hexagonal mechanical pencil seems pretty silly to me. – There would certainly have been space for “with a very pointy end for making various marks on paper and a lot of other surfaces”.

Oh! What happens then is what unfortunately also happens on some wood-cased pencils from STAEDTLER, but should not happen there either :laughing:

Good luck!
