Paint or print sensors with electrically conductive paint.

The Electric Paint 50ml jar is perfect conductive ink for painting or screen printing sensors. It can be applied like any other water-based paint using a paintbrush, and screen printed to create precise designs and patterns. Electric Paint is non-toxic, water-soluble and air-dries at room temperature. Once dry, Electric Paint can be sealed using spray varnish to make it smudge-proof and water-resistant. One 50ml jar can cover up to 0.8m². Use alongside the Touch Board, Pi Cap or Light Up Board to create high precision touch and proximity sensors.

Electric Paint also comes in a 10ml tube and 1L tub.
