<p>So recently I pulled my mint condition -or so i thought- silver sharpie out from my art box. I never dipped it in anything or something, but for some reason, the nib has turned brown and only a small spot actually writes okay. I only ever used it a few times and now it is not metallic, but instead watery and grey. not to mention it leaves brown liquid on my paper.. anyone know what to do?</p>
