Super Soaker Central

Hi there. Anyone remembering the Soaker vests from the UK ?

I am going to build up own vets. I already got a substance, that change its colour from white to BLUE when it get in touch with water. Then, when drying the colour changes back into white again

THe only thing I need now are some white T-shirts---then I can build up xxx Soaker vests Since I got more than enough of this chemical substance...

I will show you more, when I got t-shirts...

Interesting. Do you have the name of or info on the substance used? It sounds like a stain that's simply applied to the T-shirt. A t-shirt that can be stained anywhere by water would be far better than those measly targets as well.

Now, if we could, on top of this, have gridded T-shirts that stain, that would be very useful for official/league based wars.

Just buy a gridded T-shirt somewhere and stain it with this stuff.

Yea, that is what I am going to do. Just get a WHITE T-SHIRT and then stain it with the substance
Sadly speaking I have no time to buy some till saturday...so you will have to wait, like me too.

Blue's a better color for the water warfare theme though. Or perhaps you could have 2 sets of T-shirts, which stain different colors based on the team wearing them.

Gridded T-shirts will probably have to be custom ordered to find something that's entirely or mostly gridded. Particularly, the front/back and shoulders need to be covered comprehensively.

=p

The colour is blue. I do not think that I can easily change the colour to red so we have two different colours for two different teams. The substance does work now, may It will not when it turns red...

As for the name of the substance I can only laugh...It is a remix of some chemical substances out of my chemicstry building set...

But anyway I can try to find out what these substances are^^

It was not tested on any T-Shirts yet, so I cannot tell much details on it yet, but from testing on a small piece of towel it should work as we want^^ Saturday, come faster

Found these bikinis. This is what some of us have talked about before (dual-layer with an outer thin white layer and a colored underlayer), but actually made. No chemicals required; just the right layering of fabrics. Seeing it in action tells me this would be one of the best ways to go for a hit indicator for water wars. Battling with girls in bikinis wouldn't hurt, either!

Wear a black tee shirt.
Put a white tee over that.
done.

iSoaker, how did you find that? =p

What I would do is stick to the traditional gridded T-shirt idea using this method. An inner-layer has the grid pattern (I'd give about 2 cm^2 per grid), and the gridlines are colored black, with the backgrounding being colored light blue or red, depending on team. The outer layer is a very water-permeable white later. This lets you see where the hits are, along with how much the, and how many grids are filled.

Haha, our lovely isoaker...always dreaming from soaking girls in bikinis....

But I do not think that we can get such girls playing water warfare in their bikinis...and there is also nobody who will wear a bikini over the t-shirt as a hit-indicator either...
