Products:

Power Palette^TM

The Power Palette is a quick color changer used to apply airbrush ink and paint.  It is user friendly, low maintenance, air-tight, and self-cleaning.  You gain fingertip access to dozens of colors/shades of colors using one airbrush ... saving you time and money.

The Power Palette is better/faster than a multi-gun operation because:

1. Whenever you finish spraying a color, there is always a residual amount of ink deposited on the needle inside the airbrush gun.  With a multi-gun operation this ink is wasted. It dries on the needle while the gun is not in use.  Because the Palette uses one gun, often this ink is not wasted.
   
   If you were spraying a flame tat, for example, you would first dial in yellow, then red, then blue.  No residual amount of yellow or red ink would be wasted.  Also, you could create the flame tat faster because the yellow would automatically change to shades of darker yellow, light orange, orange, dark orange, light red, etc.  The Palette allows you to blend colors faster, easier.

2. With every multi-gun system, a new layer of ink dries on the needle every time the gun is used.  These layers tend to cake up during the day.  If you are lucky and you make it to the end of the day without your gun clogging, you still have to disassemble, clean, and reassemble each one of your multi-guns before re-use.  This is a laborious, time consuming, and tedious task. This is a daily recurring expense in time and materials.  The Palette eliminates this expense because the Palette is self cleaning.  No ink ever dries on the needle in the gun.

   If the last color used at the end of the day is red, for example, you turn the dial to the stop, pull back on the trigger, and flush it clean ... all within a second or two seconds.

   During the day if you are not intending to blend your next color with the one being sprayed, you flush the needle clean before dialing in the next color.  It takes a second or two.

   Simply set your gun down at day's end ... no disassembly, cleaning, or reassembly of even one gun.  The next time you use your Palette, your gun is ready: pick it up, point, and spray any color or shade your fingertips access.

   You access colors by turning a dial on the gun with your finger tips.  You can mix and blend adjacent colors creating new colors by turning this dial.

3. Multi-gun operations require a separate bottle and hose for each color.  If you want eight colors, you need eight guns, eight bottles, and eight hoses.

   The Palette uses one gun and one hose assembly to access the full rainbow of colors/shades.

   It is true of our brains, our bodies, and our mechanisms:  The more you use it the better it works. 

   Use one gun, keep it simple:  One gun is superior to multi-guns if it accesses more colors/shades of colors.  The Palette does exactly that.  You would need 13 guns to access the same number of colors accessed by the Palette.

4. The Palette is air-tight.  Consequently, you never need to worry about a change in the consistency of your ink due to the evaporation of alcohol.

   All of our competitors use alcohol based paints in their multi-gun operations.  Each paint bottle in each airbrush gun must have a breathing hole.  Alcohol evaporates through this breathing hole, changing the consistency of the paint in the bottle.  Alcohol must be re-added in the right amount to obtain the optimal consistency in the ink/paint for airbrushing.

   The Palette is air-tight.  You store ink/paint in the Palette for days, even weeks without concern because it is air-tight.

   In conclusion, TAT International spent hundreds of thousands of dollars over three years to engineer and perfect a state-of-the-art color changer, the Power Palette, for airbrushing inks and paints.  The Palette is offered exclusively by TatStore which is owned by TAT International.

Duratat^TM Ink

Duratat ink is the safest, longest lasting, and most user-friendly tat ink on the market.

While Duratat ink is the most expensive, the additional cost is easily justified by greater profits.

1. Duratat is a water based ink that dries instantly.

   It is non toxic, 100% organic, all FDA approved ingredients, and non-allergenic.  Because it is non-allergenic, it is literally safer than peanut butter.  This is not true of alcohol based inks/paints.

2. The pigment in Duratat ink remains suspended in the solution.  There is no need to shake or agitate the ink.  When you purchase eight ounces of Duratat ink you get eight ounces of ink.  You don't pay for a ball/agitator within the ink bottle because you don't need it.

3. Duratat ink is best applied sparingly.  This saves you money.  You will learn to pull back on the trigger on the gun just a little, not a lot or all the way as is done with cheaper tat inks and paints.

4. Duratat ink lasts twice as long on the skin guaranteed.  That is, when you put a tat on your customer using Duratat, it will last about twice as long as it would have, had you used any other ink/paint.

   More than anything else in our experience, the retail customer wants a longer lasting tat.  If customer satisfaction is important to you, you will give your customer a Duratat tat.  If customer satisfactions is not important to you, we do not want you as a customer.  We don't think you will be successful.

Yes, Duratat costs a few cents more per tat.  There is a price to pay for high quality and a price to pay for low quality.  We believe that smart business practice requires us to pay the extra cost for high quality because high quality leads to more repeat business, referrals, and customer satisfaction.  We believe that nothing increases profits faster than increased customer satisfaction.

TAT International spent two years developing Duratat ink at great expense because we believe that the tat industry needed to offer its customers a high quality ink.  Doing so, we believe, will increase customer satisfaction and ultimately demand for tats.

Duratat ink is offered exclusively by TatStore and TAT International.

3D Body Art^TM

The 3D Body Art kit does not create a tat.  Tats are airbrushed onto the skin by a tatist.  Whereas, the 3D Body Art kit is sold to tat customers to take home to put Glitter Tattoos, names or initials, a school logo, or any other imagined design upon themselves.

This product lasts more than a week and up to two weeks depending on how and where it is applied to the skin.

The customer is given a safe glue, self-adhesive stencils, brushes, and special glitter ... everything needed to create glitter body art.  This body art is popular with teens and pre-teens; some of whom have glitter body art parties.

The 3D Body Art kits allow Tatists to sell a product as well as a service.

The 3D Body Art kits are sold exclusively at TatStore and by TAT International.
