## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does this compare to the pilot hi-tec-c maica .4mm?**
A: The ink cartridge is identical.  The Maica is slightly but noticeably larger overall - length and diameter.  The Hi-Tec-C has a clip on the cap, unlike the Maica.

**Q: Is this pen retractable?**
A: No, it is not retractable.  Still, the Pilot Hi-Tec-C is one of my favorite pens.  If you prefer retractable pens, you might want to check out Pilot's Juice Up -- it's great, too.  Love them both, use them daily.

**Q: These always smudge and smear when i erase the pencil lines in my drawing, even if i wait an hour for the pen to dry. what am i doing wrong?**
A: I have the same problem...and stopped using them.  They did not work out for my purposes. They did smudge as you described.

**Q: Does anyone know if the ink is waterproof?**
A: I had the same problem...with the ink smudges, etc. I stopped using them. They did not work for my purposes.

I'm obsessed with these pens. I saw someone on YouTube recommend them and now I can't go back to any other pen. They write so neatly, so smoothly, and the grip is perfect. I can write for hours longer than I can with other pens.
