Buying Guide: Marking Chalk for Drilling Points

Surfaces It Marks
The green pigment marks metal, wood, tile, plaster, drywall, stone and concrete. It can mark drilling locations through templates up to 2 inches thick. Because the pigment is non-permanent, it is suited to temporary marks that guide your drilling or fastening.

Pen Format and Shot Count
The ChalkShot Pen is a one-step marking tool. The canister holds over 250 shots. Use the pen to locate fastening or drilling points before you start work.
