    Haha, a very weird thread!

    What is the best highlighter to use? I think it's easier to study things once I highlight the important points. I have a Stabilo Boss Highlighter, like this:

    It's ok, but only the yellow one works well. The blue and the orange ones leave a 'blob' of ink anywhere you lift the highlighter off the page (it's hard to explain, but it's annoying).

    So what highlighters are good?

    I have a Tex Liter 224 which has printed on it 'without risk for almost papers' whatever that means.
    To answer your question: Faber-Cartell is your only man in yellow. Staiblo Boss in pink.

    I know what you mean by the blob. ALL highlighters of strong colours seem to do that.

    Staedtler are your only man

    i was just thinking about this the last day! Y'know you've gotten too obsessed with the LC when your thoughts are about highlighters!

    I'm a great advocate for Staedtler. I think their pens are great, so with that same attitude I went and bought their highlighters-Pink, Blue, Orange, Yellow and green. So, the green went straight away, the blue stopped working soon after, the orange didn't work at the beginning, now it's starting to work(!) the pink was grand for about 3 weeks and the yellow was as if no ink was in there.

    So, I would not get another Staedtler highlighter again as in my opinion, they're a waste of money and plastic!
