Abstract: An applicator has reservoir for fluid and a supply passage. A valve in the passage has a seat and a member movable between closed and open positions. A spring biases the member toward its closed position. An elongated nib is mounted in the supply passage and has an end extending from the passage, the nib engaging the member so that the member moves to its open position. An adapter has a portion for holding a pad that has at least one dimension elongated transversely to the nib. The adapter includes an engagement portion with a cavity for detachably receiving an end of the reservoir, the cavity having a depth so that it engages the nib when the end of the reservoir is detachably received in the cavity to apply pressure on the nib to move the member to its open position.

Abstract: The application discloses stable correction fluids and/or correction fluids that change from colored to substantially white (or to a color substantially matching the color of a substrate to which the correction fluid is to be applied) after application to a substrate.

Abstract: A nib arrangement has a reversible, elongated nib body of porous material with opposite substantially identical, shaped writing ends that are both shaped for depositing a fluid saturating the nib body, onto a surface as the writing end rubs along the surface, the nib body being structured to be reversibly mounted in an instrument for supplying the fluid to the nib with either writing end extending outwardly of the instrument.
