Interesting. At first I thought you meant it could be painted onto. :shucks:

It is indeed paintable onto other objects.

No military application yet?:o
Aren't army jerks usually the first to make use of every new invention?

I am going to paint a wall with it and then glue glitter at random places and pretend I'm at the Enterprise observation deck

Isn't that just the sensible thing to do?

Presumably August will use it to get cotton wool to look like smoke for his model trains.

I'll be using it to make sure all the black things in my house are properly black, not the crappy pseudo-black stuff that you get these days. I mean, my chair legs aren't black, they're just super extremely very dark grey :nope:

Paint a circle and claim to be the first to own a black hole.

Army "jerks"?

Or you can pretend you're in 2001 "It's full of STARS!" :o:)



BTW this 90 seconds time constraint between posts bites the bit one.

What a nerd


:D

Australians sometimes call military personel A.J:s(Army Jerk)
Sure I'm not an aussie my self, but I like that expression anyway.:)

...I want to add that I've been an A.J. myself too, and I'm not ashamed about it.

I have seen some experiments with this stuff. Sometimes it can really mess with your perception . In some circumstances it turns a three dimensional object into one that can only be perceived in two dimensions.

:doh:

You shouldn't be, as after all the Army IS the best of the services. :yep:

Just a part of the majority on Subsim :03:

Forget walls, I'm going to paint sinkholes on the road during night time :Kaleun_Salivating:

Interesting.:yep:
