Permanent Ink is a gimmick that allows you to do the impossible, imagine the unimaginable, and eff the ineffable.

In one performance, the magician shows his/her hand completely clean and empty. He/She then introduces a Sharpie (owned or borrowed) to the audience. The illusionist draws a dot onto his palm and visually moves the dot to any location on his body using nothing but his own fingertips. At any point, the performer can pause and show that the ink is truly shifting. At the end of the performance, the spectator may examine and feel the ink to confirm it is 100% real.

Another effect involves the spectator choosing a playing card; the magician draws whatever he/she would like. Take the word "DROP" for example. The magician then shakes the card, and one of the letters visually falls toward the bottom of the card. What makes this unique is that the performer can immediately hand the card out for examination. The spectator can keep this magical artifact as a souvenir.

You will learn how to make the ink vanish at a moments notice anytime. Permanent Ink is applicable to almost every situation, and is an open ended effect that is limited only by your creativity. Not for use on squirrels.

It's good in a low light situation! Like a bar! I wouldn't bother performing this in daytime!

Great at bars and at night, but not a trick that can always be used.

This is a great effect and Dalton was very clever to discover it, however it cannot be done in direct lighting but that is not too big of a problem.

This is realy a good trick for at night. During the day everyone can see the gimmick but without light it's really cool. I don't suggest you pick this one up because you will need to make a new gimmick for every performance. It's really unpractical.

I think it's a great trick for the streets. I love the endless possibilities you have with this concept. Dalton Wayne is amazing.

I have done this in street performances and people sort it out in a blink of an eye, plus the card gimmick for the card routine is impossible to handle. Just for the fact that the method is too easy I give this 1 star. I was expecting something like that but I also was expecting some improvements to make it look more "unsortable". Dalton Wayne, you wasted my money.

I love how you can show the hands empty before you draw the dot. Clever!

Within minutes you can perform this. It is very visual and something you will most likely use. I really want to perfect this one.
