Thermochromic paint

A Magical Effect that Changes Colours when the Surface is Warm

The Thermochromic paint effect changes the surface colour when the surface is heated. For example, when a part of the body touches the surface, like a hand, the warmth from the body will warm the surface and the paint colour will disappear to see the temporarily imprint of the hand.

In the past, these paints were relegated to security applications, but now they are used for decorative items and furniture, design objects, handles, switches, lighting, housewares, doors, tables, etc. This paint is for indoors use only.

The success of these products is related to their easy use and application. At room temperature (up to 25-29°C) the paint is coloured, but if heated or touched by the body or another heat source, they become a mat transparent. This shows the color of the background or the texture of the surface. For example, the black paint sprayed on wood will show the grain when the surface is warmed up.
