Description
SFXC Thermochromic Acrylic, ready made water-based ink changes colour from Blue to Neon Green when the surface it is applied to reaches or goes above 28ºC. The change will begin a couple of degrees beforehand.
Touch the painted surface with warm hands to witness a colour change.
Apply onto fabric, canvas, plaster, paper or board.
This versatile product can be applied via a silk screen via squeegee or a small gloss roller or paint brush. Build up coats to desired opacity.
Coverage is 50ml per square meter per coat.
If applying the ink to a smooth surface such as glass, ceramic or metal, please leave a note at checkout requesting that we formulate the ink with lacquer instead of our standard binder.
After application, cure the ink with a hair dryer or similar heat source.
Thermochromic paint can be used for arts, crafts, education, design and promotional items.
