Basically, after you write something, in a short time (1-2 hrs?) you can erase it, but after that period, the writing becomes permanent.
Anyone has idea where to find it?

The kids use them at school here in VD.
If you put the erased doc text in freezer, it shows up again..
I'm looking for a pen whose writing is temporarily erasable only in a short time (1-2 hrs), after that time, it becomes permanent, indistinguishable from writings from normal pens...
Sharpie isn't as much of a household name in Europe as it is in the US, so as for a source, I'd look to Ebay or amazon. hth.
I've not seen them here ( but I've not been looking either) but I have seen them in France in the big supermarkets there.
Gawd, I want some PaperMates.
Why are teachers so hooked on anything that writes, hmmm...
Order as many as you like:
It is a great chemical engineering invention based on advanced thermochromic inks.
These are materials that switch colours upon temperature changes, and strikingly the process is quite reversible (not so frequent thermodynamic property).
This means uppon friction (which makes a local temperature increase) colour fades away. If the ink is cooled down (-10°C) the chemical reaction is reversed and color reappears!
Apparently Pilot developed it, but can be found also under other brands (Uni-Ball and Muji). Pilot seems the best to my experience. Second being Muji.
Wish other things were so nicely developed !
