[QUOTE="LRHWAL, post: 219149, member: 5418"] [b]The advice from Tempil:[/b] Tempilstik is designed to make a mark only after the surface has reached the rated temperature of the Tempilstik. It does not make a mark on smooth surface in cold condition. The way it works is that when the surface is about to reach the rated temperature of the Tempilstik, it is struck on the surface like a chalk or a pen and at the point of contact the Tempilstik MELTS and makes the mark. If your application requires pre-marking th eproduct before it is being HEATED then we suggest you use TEMPILAQ. The Tempilaq is a liquid version of tempilstik and is designed to make a mark on smooth surface in cold condition. when you mark it with Tempilaq, the mark will dry very fast and leave a chalky appearence. then when the surface is heated the mark will melt at the rated temperature of the Tempilaq. If th emark is horizontal the liquid formed will move a little but will be still there and as the surface cools it gets re-solidified. However the re-solidifed mark is DISTINCTLY DIFFERENT the th eoriginal chalky mark. it is slightly Glassy, Dark mark. if the mark is vertical then the liquid will trickle down confirming the surface did reach the temperature. The only caution about using Tempilaq is that the open flame MUST NOT HIT THE TEMPILAQ MARK other wise the mark will be "CHARRED" and trun black before it melts. [/QUOTE]
