Title: Has anyone heard of this?
Post by: Unknown Target on April 03, 2005, 10:29:21 am
I heard of some sort of cloth or something that they use on targets. If you hit it with a hard enough object, it leaves a discolored splotch. Is there a cloth that exists like that?

Or does everyone have no idea what I'm talking about? :D

I know I've seen little stickers that when you hit them with a bullet, the area that it hit turns neon green (against a black target). Not sure if they have clothe like that though.

Basically a neon green sheet has a huge lottery ticket style scratch off thing covering it. When the bullet hits it, it knocks the black covering off and exposes a neon bit so you can see where you hit from  far away.

Most faxes work on a thermal system, so heat = black on the paper.

As for pressure, the closest thing would probably be carbon paper - so long as you have normal paper underneath. That would create a mark pretty well under the appropriate amount of pressure.

Sorry, was thinking of the wrong thing. I meant cash register paper - the kind that you can write on with your fingernail.
