Description
SFXC Sprayable Hydrochromic ink changes colour when it is wet.
Hydrochromic ink can be used to hide hidden colour, messages and text. Please note that Hydrochromic is white and therefore, do not try and cover hard dark colours like black, dark blue or red, instead lighten those colours to be grey, light blue or pink or you will see the dark colours through the white coating.
Our hydrochromic spray system is white when dry and translucent when wet. This sprayable ink can be used through any standard spray equipment or airbrush.
DO NOT APPLY WITH A BRUSH!
Apply to wood, heavy weight, tight weave fabric, stone or board.
2 thin coats are recommended. Coverage depends on how absorbent the surface is, your spray equipment and how heavily each coat is applied, so test on your own material first.
We also stock Hydrochromic sheets.
