JUICE Marked Cards
JUICE is considered by magicians and gamblers alike to be the finest marked card technology on the market today and has been a guarded secret for decades.
Even though all NU-CONcept products are based upon "shade" technology, JUICE for red backed cards, JUICE for blue backed cards and luminous products are each based on different scientific principals. Since red & blue are different frequencies of light, the JUICE has been formulated for different color cards.
Juice is available in a marker/pen which works only on paper cards such as Bee, Aviatior, Bicycle, etc. and, as staed above, the Juice solution should match the color card you are using.
In 2006, NU-CONcept invented Juice Dust which works on BOTH paper and most plastic cards. But, the color still had to match the card for maximum deception.
Until January 2008, people have tried to make generic JUICE which works on both red & blue cards AND also work on paper and plastic cards....as you probably suspect, generic products have trade-offs and are not as deceptive as JUICE designed specifically for their respective colors.
However in January 2008 - After years of research and development NU-CONcept has made available N-Dust. N-Dust is the first Juice Dust which will work on most colored cards (red, blue, green, burgundy, etc.). In addition N-Dust also works on paper and most 100% plastic playing cards. In addition, N-Dust is easier to transport and apply than any Juice Solution or Juice Dust (TM) product. therefore, N-Dust is the recommended product for all customers who are interested in the finest Juice technology.
JUICE does not require the use sunglasses or special filters to read the marks. However, if you are in a rush and want to cut the time to learn to read Juiced marked cards then you can use the optional NU-CONcept Juice Enhancing Sunglasses (TM).
JUICE marks may be read from 2 - 8+ feet away. As a matter of fact, unlike regular "professionally marked cards", distance makes the JUICE markings easier to read.
NU-CONcept JUICE comes complete with detailed instructions and training tips/exercises to learn to read JUICE quickly. However, it does require time to train and practice to read juice expertly. But, when perfected, you will have a very powerful weapon.
Since, you apply the JUICE yourself you can control strength of the JUICE markings. This will enable you to practice with darker/easier to read shade and then lighten the JUICE markings so the marks can only be read by a trained eye.
Note: Buying a pre-marked JUICED deck does not provide this flexibility of "ease of use" training.
However, if you happened to buy a pre-marked Juiced deck and can not read them, then the NU-CONcept Juice Enhancing Sunglasses (TM) will make your learning process much faster because they act as an aid. In addition, you can wear the NU-CONcept Juice Enhancing Sunglasses (TM) without a spectator's knowledge because they look like regular sunglasses.
The Juice solution may also be used to make "tintwork" marking patterns which work GREAT on Bicycle, Tally-Ho and other cards that have scroll like, non-uniform "Bee like" back designs.
You can easily make your own juiced cards by using the patented NU-CONcept juice marker/pen filled with permanent juice solution.
The Juice solution/marker works best on paper based playing cards (ie. Bees, Aviator, Bicycles, etc.) If you want to mark Copag, KEM, Gemaco, etc. (most 100% plastic cards), NU-CONcept recommends using "Juice Dust (TM) for paper AND most 100% plastic playing cards" or N-Dust.
JUICE DUST (TM) and N-DUST (Next-generation Juice Dust)
In addition to the NU-CONcept permanent Juice marker/pen, NU-CONcept is the only company to offer a revolutionary new product, "Juice Dust (TM)" and "N-Dust". Unlike daub/pastes, Juice Dust (TM) or N-Dust will not and can not dull the finish of a card. In addition, Juice Dust (TM) and N-Dust are the only Juice products which can be used to mark a borrowed deck to make juice or tintwork marked cards right in front of a spectator, without their knowledge. In addition, NU-CONcept Dust Juice (TM) and N-Dust are the ONLY products which can be used to secretly mark BOTH paper based (Bees, Bicycles, etc.) as well as 100% plastic cards (KEM, Copag, Gemaco, etc.)
Juice Dust (TM) and N-Dust was tested for well over 600 shuffles and by giving the cards abuse by rubbing the backs on material and carpet. Even after the tests, the marks looked great ! In the event that the Juice marks do get harder to read, they can be fixed right in front of your audience with a touch of you finger in the same "strategic" location.
