Why Red and Blue, is there an advantage using either?
What is the solvent/thinner in the dye ? Thanks
Does this penetrate sanding scratches? Say if I sanded a surface to 220, then went to 400, would it show any remaining 220 marks?
where is this item made?

Good product for our application

Makes good bluing, Just mix with denatured alcohol and wipe on with a rag. Have been using for years in paint prep to see where areas need sanding or filling and in final prep to make sure everything has been sanded.

The Only layout fluid you will ever need.

Layout fluid serves all sorts of uses in the shop. It is a traditional coating for metal to be scribed and machined.

Simply the best

Great value

I use a lot of layout fluid in my knife making, so the larger container is very handy. The price was less per ounce than the smaller containers and the quality is the same.

Great product

What can you say about a product that has been around 70+ years? It's the best!!

J**N

Layout fluid for sure, but leaked.

Leaked in in shipping, not totally empty, but quite the mess.

Dykem, industry standard for a reason.

This product probably doesn't need a review, if you are buying it, you know what you are getting.Now, if you are new to doing metal work or are tired of using sharpie and scribing for your layouts and have been un decided on getting this, buy it.Makes easy and complex layout work much easier when trimming, machining, drilling or cutting metal. Easy to apply, dries nice and leaves a crisp scribe line.Fast shipping from seller.
