Sketch luminous highlights or wet the tip for opaque white marks

White charcoal handles problems standard white pencils can't solve. General's 558 Series delivers opaque coverage that actually shows up on dark papers and toned surfaces, whether you're adding highlights to charcoal drawings or building entire compositions on black paper. The medium-soft consistency moves smoothly across textured surfaces while maintaining enough tooth for controlled mark-making.

Wet the tip and the charcoal transforms into liquid white that leaves bright, opaque marks, perfect for crisp final highlights or adding punch to finished pieces. Dry application works for subtle value adjustments and pattern work, while wet application creates dramatic contrast on colored supports.

This versatility extends beyond drawing. Transfer patterns onto dark painting surfaces, fabric, or suede, then brush away marks you don't need. A soft white eraser lifts remaining marks from paper or fabric without ghosting. Order individually to test the technique, or grab 12 for a full box. The 2-pack includes a sharpener, ready to work straight from the package.
