The Uni-ball Signo Broad UM-153 White is one of the most popular white gel pens for drawing, journaling and creative work on dark surfaces. Its dense, opaque pigment ink creates clear white lines that remain visible on black paper, kraft cardstock, photographs and coloured backgrounds.
The broad 1mm tip delivers generous ink flow and a strong line, suitable for lettering, doodles, outlines, patterns and luminous details. It can also be used for highlights over marker, coloured pencil, watercolor and other fully dried media.
White gel ink is especially useful for adding final details that are difficult to achieve with darker pens or pencils. Small dots, reflections, bright edges, stars, snow, fine lines and decorative marks can be added with precision to increase contrast and definition.
The rubber grip provides comfortable control, while the smooth rollerball tip supports continuous writing without excessive pressure. Once dry, the pigment ink is resistant to water and fading, making it suitable for artwork stored in journals, albums and handmade cards.
For best results, use on clean, fully dry surfaces. Very porous, textured or damp backgrounds may require a second pass for maximum opacity.

Add white details only after the underlying colours are completely dry. Use the pen for eye reflections, bright edges on flowers and objects, highlights on water or glass and small dots across night skies. These final white marks increase contrast and add depth without covering the original artwork.
