## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the tip retractable?**
A: The lead is retractable.  Not the whole tip. The other end is removable to reveal  an eraser.  You pull the eraser to add leads.

**Q: Can you get eraser refills for this mini pencil?**
A: Zebra eraser refills size Bhttp://www.jetpens.com/Zebra-Eraser-Refill-Size-B-Pack-of-5/pd/4550

**Q: What is the diameter of the pencil itself?  Is the .3 version a different diameter form the .5**
A: Just checked and my Zebra Mini pencil takes leads size 0.5mm. The pensil itself is 5mm in diameter. I believe you might be talking about the T3 and T5 options, which as far as I can tell stands for all silver or mix of silver and gold colors.

**Q: Do they all have Japan stamped on them?**
A: As far as I know they all have Japan stamped on them.  This is a common practice with products that are made in Japan.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent MINI Mechanical Pencil, Great for Paint Palette or Pocket Sketch book
*by N***B on February 4, 2021*

Bought one to "try it out" to see if it would be good in my small paint palette. As this pencil is made of stainless steel and the inner workings are plastic and brass, moisture should not be a problem with it. It fits perfectly in a standard 12 half pan metal palette (6 over 6) with a travel brush inside as well. What I wanted it for was for something even smaller though and by just taking off the cap (leaving the eraser intact) it fits inside my Mini palette at only 3 19/32" long. As you can see in the photo my Mini Palette holds 15 half pans but in a 5 wide by 3 high configuration which does not leave a lot of room (I even shortened the Meeden Travel Brush by about 3/8" so it would fit in the Mini Palette (it is not necessary to shorten either if using a normal 12 pan palette with a 6 half pan wide over 6 configuration). It is great to have a mechanical pencil in my palette so I don't need to sharpen it like a wood pencil. You can leave off the cap IF needed but then you will need to push on the eraser to advance the lead (it is possible but a little harder). I just leave it off to reduce the length but keep the cap in the palette just under the pencil and replace it to make using it easier. I have since bought 4 more for other palettes and as a gift. And just to note: I did remove the label on the pencil. I just cut down the length of the label with the blade of a knife held flat against the pencil thereby cutting a strip of the label off. Scraped off a remaining corner with a thumb nail and pulled off the remaining label. I then used the large piece of label to pull off the remaining adhesive by sticking it to adhered residue and pulled and restuck, pulled and restuck, until all of the residue was removed. It took only about 5 minutes to remove all of the adhesive this way. BUT, I will NOT be removing the labels from any of the other pencils as there is useful information on the label: it contains the model number of the pencil and it also has the size of the lead the pencil uses (0.5 mm) AND it has the Zebra customer telephone number on it (though it is in Japan). Still, I regret removing the label as it is well attached and made of clear plastic so will not easily be spoiled by using the pencil. I hope this has been helpful to everyone. Enjoy using this excellent pencil, I know I already am.
