Love these highlighters so much! They are, for all intents and purposes, just crayons. But don't let that fool you! They go on the paper bright, sheer, and significantly smoother than your average Crayola. It's almost a buttery texture. There are sometimes little "globbies" left behind, but they're easy to remove with a quick scrape of your fingernail. I've occasionally used the wrong color and found I could erase the wax with a regular pencil eraser and try again with the correct color. It does NOT erase to a pure white, but it does remove the highlighter enough to layer over it with another color. I have the ESV Reader's Edition Bible which has pretty thin pages— There is ghosting with these highlighters, but due to the waxy nature, there is no bleedthrough. Overall, I am very pleased, and I immediately ordered another set just in case they're out of stock when I run out.
