When applied in a thin layer, by screen printing onto paper or textiles, Electric Paint is flexible and allows for a degree of bend.

ESD Safe Coatings – Durable coatings that prevent electrostatic discharge on a wide variety of substrates. If you want to create touchless/proximity sensors with our hardware, we recommend our Printed Sensors! At Bare Conductive our focus is on developing use cases in smart buildings and automotive by using conductive inks to create smart surfaces. The copper based electroconductive paints normally provides a good level of conductivity over longer distances. Meaning that you must apply the paint quite thick (to make it look wet) so that the flakes can settle and become smooth and flat.Electric Paint can also be applied to textiles, expanding the possibilities for integrating electronics into wearables. A nominal value of 1 ohm per square, where the actual value depends on film thickness and uniformity.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. This can be controlled by sealing Electric Paint using an acrylic varnish, spray or a water-proof coating. Our Printed Sensor product is an example of an effective pattern, optimising the capabilities of the sensor for proximity sensing. The scope of potential expands when conductive materials are delivered in a medium as flexible as paint – it has changed the entire idea of circuitry and how it can be used. At Bare Conductive, we believe capacitive sensing unlocks the biggest potential for Electric Paint: transforming ordinary surfaces into smart ones.

We get many different requests from clients because there are many different electrical projects where our paints can be used. Bare Conductive Electric Paint has a surface resistivity of approximately 55 ohms/square at 50 microns layer thickness. Unlike many other conductive paints, this one is water-based and uses an acrylic binder, yet still produces a very low-resistance surface for fast and even plating; it has very little odour, is non-toxic and environmentally friendly - any dried out paint can be disposed of in normal household waste.

Allows plating of non-metallic objects - plastics (including 3D prints), wood, stone, leaves and shells, jewellery, EF mandrels etc.When they graduated and presented their work, they were inundated with requests from people wanting to purchase the material. You don’t even have to apply a previous key layer of either our Dipping Lacquer or Glass Primer if the item you are electroforming is non-absorbent. Best of all, even if you do seal and treat it properly, the Electric Paint’s conductive properties do not degrade, and it can maintain its performance for years!
