What do they get their neon/ bright color from? If they dont have neon/ soap dyes? Iron oxides are rusty red/ yellow shades (so not that) ?

It's the mica powder, I believe. If you Google it you can find out more about it, but I've done my own mix of white mica powder and a dark oxide color and I've come out with colors similar, although perhaps slightly darker. There's green oxide, blue, purple, you name it. I think the mica is what gives it that bright shine. Again, if you aren't too sure Google it and see what else you can find before buying something you aren't comfortable with. I don't mind this set so much but I've found others on other websites that work better and they list the materials used to make the powder. Hope that helps you! It's the mica powder, I believe.

To the best of my knowledge, just the color. They are anodized, often in black, blue, and red. Structurally, the color shouldn't matter.

Mine have sort of a Metallic top ... nothing that stands out too much (cant remember what brand, but I have seen a few where even a black sharpy wouldn't so up there is so much writing on it)... They may looks SLIGHTLY different but basically the same metalic-like look as the other TDK's you'd find in the stores

Googled you question and it is yes. Google the statement Black iron oxide handwarmers and you will find how to.

I have also had this issue sometimes they are yellow and other times they are brown. I have noticed the yellow ones will turn brown after a while. maybe they are old? I use mine to make lipo nano vitamin C

Hi there! We make fingerpaints with these colors and plain yogurt with great results. We mix them in an icetray and I noticed the yellow sticks around a bit, but havent noticed any stains other than the yellow on the icetray. Hope that helps.

No! I just washed my brand new ones and the steel coating is all gone. They'll still work, they just aren't shiny anymore.

I don't know. They looked red to me in one photo but later when I saw the photo they seemed dark hot pink. Remember this was back in late September when I got them. I was not given anyway to choose and got the hot pink. It didn't match but I was just at a party--not on display or anything!--so I used them anyway.

As shown.. They are all metallic.. even the black is sort of shiny. I would call them... blue, green, purple, red, bronze, gold, black and silver. They work best on paper, but do pretty well on other surfaces.

Just took another look. U can't clean them if u r using the fire glass. They r actually changing color. Either get the darker color like u said or just replace them like I'm doing...

They are pretty strong magnets. I suggest to use sharpies to color instead of the paint they give you, it just makes a mess.

They are thin... thinner than I need for my project. They are black oxide, but not dark black. the color is a little odd.

What I've found from testing them: Yellow - Acid Drop (97a) Turquoise - Jade Grenade (93a) Red - Cherry Bomb (91a) Green - Irish Spring (88a) Also, I found them to be slightly softer than what the durometer suggests. Hope that helps, Cody

Hi Chris, great question thanks for asking! I would suggest asking the UNITED RESEARCH LABORATORIES, in Philidelphia. There is only a green coating around the ferrous sulfate, so I cannot answer your question. Although I am going to switch to a Organic Iron Sulfate due to the coloring agents Labs. add to iron supplements. Hope I helped and thanks fr the info

They appear to be steel. They don't rust but they do lose their sharpness over time. Once dull they need replaced otherwise, it won't work. They usually last two months.
