Electrically Conductive Paint that really works 

This video should have more views 👀👀👀

helpful and a controlled experiment with useful results. thank-you; for shielding the cavity of an electric guitar, the 1oz to 3t mix of acrylic paint to graphite powder requires three to six coats for uniform continuity. results from your silver impregnated paint look far superior. excellent effort, thanks again.

I finally received the one from Thailand and was able to repair my keyboard with it. The paste is indeed very good, conducts as well if not better than a high-end paste from Germany. Small downside only that it takes long to dry. (German paste dries in 5-10min, Thailand paste needs 10+hours). But with a blow dryer on low (due to keyboard membrane made from plastic which I didn't want to melt), the Thailand paste can be tried in 4-5 minutes. Overall GOOD. Can recommend.

Thank you for your videos! If you have time and want to do it, I'd like to see a video about capacitor's esr and how they change behavior when esr goes up, depending on the application. Thank you again and have a great day!

Great video, thank you! Been waiting for this one, actually one of the reason I subscribed. 👍👍

Hello Dave, about remote control rubber buttons, don't lose your money buying conductive paint which is awfully expensive, i use since 25 years leaded carbon core of carpenter pencil, I scratch it with a edgy cutter blade abode the button and i apply it correctly using the pencil tip uniformly on the whole rubber surface, it works perfectly for many years .... of course , clean any trace of grease before doing it.

Excellent sir ! Thank you for your well explained video !

nice test - kinda surprising how bad some of those were - 28kOhm is kinda crazy ! I get asked occasionally about those paints and I always say "learn to solder" but for the special case of rare remote control membrane switches that silver paint looks kinda interesting, if only temporarily

I have used conductive paint to repair a vintage volume control pot on an old GE TV. Thanks for the videos. Carl

Curious how flexible the conductive paint is after it's dry? I've used a bit of foil tape for remote button backs. At first, I thought you were going to try to fix the flexible button 'board' with conductive paint!

2 years late her but wow awesome video thanks 👏👏just subbed 👍

good info

Great Video👍 I currently need to repair a circuit board foil and need to paint a thin track for it. I bought the conductive silver paint "kemo L100" and it's like water! Do you have a tip for me how I can get the paint thicker like toothpaste or something?

Very interesting!! Thanks!

If you paint those rubberized remote pads i wonder if the silver glue will remain stuck on it after 10 or 20 key presses. Will the remote last for another year?

Are silver conductive paints thermally conductive too? If yes, how much is the thermal conductivity?

I have a question re: the silver conductive paint from Thailand from ebay. I successfully repaired a keyboard many times with a conductive silver (German brand) which is a relatively thick one, like a nail polish when you work with it. It also dries fast, in 10 minutes. Could you tell me whether the Thailand one is thick (like Nailpolish) or is it more runny and watery? Because I heard bad things about other conductive paints, like the L100 (Kemo) where people say its impossible to do a fine line (on a plastic sheet etc.) as it is too watery? Can you a trace a fine line (toothpick etc.) on a keyboard membrane with the paint from Thailand and it isn't runny? I'd highly appreciate if you could give me that info. Thanks!!

Like the test, thanks for that. How does it fair on a scratch test ? Reason I ask is that I am repairing a watch PCB and the copper pad has come off of the board altogether. The pad had a copper contact which moved over the top of it to make or break the circuit when you are changing the time. So I guess I'm asking how well would this stuff wear ? Fancy giving it a test before I buy some? :-) I was thinking about 5 or six layers ?? Cheers D

What about fitting a mini needle (or it can have several needles) metalic button into the silicone pad to use as a conductor?

Very good :), would this have worked to repair the chaps flexible pcb pads by chance?

It's conductive but can you solder on it just checking.

I certainly enjoy your videos and have been watching them for years. I thought to share with you the videos by Robert Murray-Smith. The following video uses a conductive paint. He created a Dutch oven with the stuff: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-m0q0MJS0cpA.html Also check out the conductive graphite which he used in other videos to make heated clothing. I am sure you may have a few ideas of your own.

Available from this guy's eBay shop: siambkk ... and he has it in varying weights of silver content from 3g up to 15g.
