Abstract
An aerosolized fingerprint compositions for spraying onto a surface for the purpose of indentifying latent fingerprints that comprises about 1 to about 75% fingerprint dusting powder and about 25 to about 99% non-CFC propellant.
Claims17
An aerosolized fingerprint powder composition, comprising (by weight %):
- about 1 to about 75% fingerprint dusting powder;
- and
- about 25 to about 99% non-CFC dry propellant.
A method of obtaining fingerprints, comprising:
- (1) providing an aerosolized spray fingerprint powder composition, comprising a fingerprint powder and a dry propellent;
- (2) providing an isolation device that comprises a small opening defined by at least one wall and a large opening defined by at least one wall;
- (3) identifying a surface that may contain a latent fingerprint;
- (4) placing the large opening of the isolation device over the surface;
- (5) spraying the aerosolized fingerprint powder into the small opening of the isolation device to actualize latent print;
- and
- (6) analyzing actualized print.
4 more elements
A kit, comprising:
- at least one aerosolized container that comprises a fingerprint formulation and a propellant;
- a finger print brush;
- an isolation device that is defined by at least one wall and has a fingerprint surface opening and a spray opening.
