Paint circuits and sensors, or use Electric Paint as a conductive adhesive on almost anything including paper, plastic, textiles and conventional electronics.
Try it out, draw a circuit! Cold solder. Repair PCBs.
Bare Conductive’s Electric Paint provides a great platform for discovering, playing, repairing and designing with electronics. Electric Paint can be used as both a liquid wire and a conductive adhesive.
Works with: Electrical components, prototyping materials, PCBs, microcontrollers (Arduino, Raspberry Pi, MaKey MaKey, LilyPad, FLORA), e-textiles, and conductive thread.
Directions: Unscrew lid and nib to remove sealing plug, squeeze pen to apply. Leave to dry for 5 minutes, Electric Paint becomes conductive when completely dry.
