anyone know if you can get heat sensitive paint?
i have seen inks that react once touched, does anyone know of paint that does the same?
any info appreciated, either for paint or ink.
cheers

I looked into using it once for a client project...the ink is called 'thermochromic' and I believe it is a temperature sensitive element added to the pigment in the ink that gives it this quality...so I'm sure they could also add it to paint?
no links I'm afraid though, sorry!

you can buy it in spray form at almost any auto parts store. also, many paint-only shops in US will sell it for covering anything from fireplace walls, to areas around heaters.

what do you mean "re-act"??
i know if you add salt to water colour it absorbs the dyes.

oh if you need paint to be used in an area that is heated then madirish is correct!!!!!!
