Description
Sticky Powder White – Professional Adhesive Tape Print Developer
Our professional Sticky Powder White provides a high-contrast solution for developing latent fingerprints on the adhesive side of dark-coloured tapes. Forensic investigators and laboratory technicians use this specialised powder to process evidence that standard methods often fail to reach. Consequently, this reagent serves as a superior and more economical alternative to traditional processes like Crystal Violet.
Superior Results on Adhesive Evidence
You can use Sticky Powder White to recover high-fidelity prints from the “sticky” side of various tapes and surfaces. Because the formula specifically targets residues trapped in adhesives, it ensures excellent friction ridge contrast for forensic analysis.
- Versatile Tape Processing: This product works effectively on black duct tape, brown packaging tape, and electrical tape. It also produces sharp results on nylon-reinforced strapping tapes.
- Glove Examinations: You can apply this process to the interior of dark-coloured medical or rubber gloves to identify the wearer.
- High-Contrast Visualisation: The white formulation creates bright ridge detail against dark substrates. Therefore, it provides much clearer results for photography than messy dye-based stains.
Professional Application Process
We supply Sticky Powder White as a versatile dry reagent. To achieve the best results, you must prepare a simple paste before application.
- Simple Preparation: You create a working paste by mixing equal amounts of water and Photo-Flo with the powder.
- Easy Application: Apply the mixture to the adhesive surface using a camelhair brush. Allow the paste to set for approximately 10–15 seconds.
- Flexible Processing: You may leave the paste on longer or rinse it off sooner with tap water, depending on the reaction. Furthermore, you can reapply the solution if you require deeper contrast.
Shelf Life and Versatility
This product offers exceptional stability for long-term forensic use. The dry powder has an indefinite shelf life when you store it in a cool, dry place. For processing light-coloured or transparent adhesives, we also supply Sticky Powder Dark to ensure you always have the necessary contrast for your evidence.
