The Prismacolor Colorless Blender uses a special formula to soften hard edges, and to lighten or blend colored pencils. Use it for a smooth, blended look. With the Colorless Blender, colors can be layered on top of each other without cloudy build up.

This pencil is sold unsharpened.

Note — Manual sharpening is recommended for this pencil. Clogging can be prevented in electric sharpeners by periodically sharpening a graphite pencil to keep the blades clean.

Nice and easy to use!

Pros

Comments about Prismacolor Blender:

I think it's great for such a nice price! It dosen't have a colour and turns out clear but it blends the other colours you layered ontop of each other so you don't get a choppy kind of look. I noticed that stanford does have some quality control issues but I haven't had too many problems yet. I also bought a box of (48) Primsacolor coloured pencils and the blender works great with them! It makes your artwork look alot smoother. I love it! And will be buying more!

Nothing Happened!

By TwinMama

from Oregon

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Prismacolor Blender:

Maybe I'm using it wrong, but when I tried to blend my colors with it nothing happened. It just looked like a layer of wax over the color! I'll stick with the Gamsol.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Merchant response: The Prismacolor Colorless Blender Pencil will work best with multiple layers of color or thicker applications – it is only colorless wax and it tends to move only the top layers. To blend only one layer or thinner layers, or to achieve a smoother blend, Gamsol or other odorless mineral spirits may be best. If you ever have specific questions regarding our products or how to use them, please contact our Product information department at info@dickblick.com or by calling (800) 933-2542. Our product specialists will be happy to help you with questions about art materials, product applications, and techniques.

Comments about Prismacolor Blender:

It's an AWESOME product! You use it like you would use a colored pencil (without it leaving color lol). This Prismacolor Blender makes it to where you don't have to have layer over layer of colored pencil to get your colored pencils blended. I don't think there is anything wrong with this product!

This is a different blender than what I have used from Prismacolor before and my students hate them! I need to find a source for the older type.

WOW!!!! Thanks to the colorless blender my colouring looks really smooth! People have been asking how my colouring is so smooth! It's great to use even if you're not using prismacolor pencils. You can use it with any colour pencil and it blends the colour wonderfully!!!
