How to Peel a China Marker

China markers have a special formula to allow them to mark on porcelain and china. Similar in texture to a crayon, the resemblance stops there. China markers have the ability to stain the skin and have a paper wrapper around them to keep your hands clean. As you use the china marker, you will need to remove this paper wrapper to expose the unused marker beneath.
