A simplified method for producing a lead for color pencils, cosmetic pencils and colored chalk with good down stroke behavior involves mixing powdered or granular base materials containing a thermolabile, polymeric binding agent, inorganic filler materials and a coloring agent with water and then extruding the mixed materials to form raw leads, which extruded material is subsequently heat treated at the binding agent decomposition temperature for a time sufficient to partially decompose the binding agent. Enough water is mixed with the base material to achieve a lead mass of approximately 5 parts by weight of base material and 1 part by weight of water.
