Water-based correction fluid

The invention features a water-based correction fluid that includes an opacifying pigment, water, and a film-forming system that provides the correction fluid with a writeover time of about 30 seconds or less.

Correction fluids are provided which include an opacifying pigment, a water-fast ink fixing agent including a cationic non-film-forming polymer, a binder including a film-forming polymer compatible with the ink fixing agent, and water. The new correction fluids have improved 'bleed' resistance when used to correct water-fast inks, such as ball-point pen inks.
