I've never heard of them and the correct thing to do with newly hung wallpaper is hang a new sheet. Obviously, with older existing papers, this is not always possible and some repairs can be made with various types of artists oil/acrylic paints, felt pens and even emulsions. If you really don't want to/can't change the sheet then perhaps one of these methods may help, although they are a bit hit and miss.

BTW, please let us know if you do find these pens as they may come in useful for others in the future.

I have used coloured felt pens on occasion to very good effect on certain coloured papers that have been damaged or knocked.
