This is for use WITH an existing alarm system. It consists of a Nozzle, a bit of flex-tubing, an electric valve, and a pressurized container of Skin Dye and Odorant. How it works: When the alarm goes off- the Creep is in the Car- the Valve opens and discharges the contents of the Pressurized container
through the nozzle
mounted in the middle of the Steering Wheel horn button,
giving the Creep (car thief) a bath. The dye would be permanent, of a really GROSS color, and the Odorant would
gag a Skunk.
It would be no problem for the Police to find the Creep,
they'd just have to follow their noses. Changing the seat
covers is certainly cheaper than rreplacing the car.
Why just mark them when you can char them?

I think being on fire will make them stand out. [oatcake, Oct 04 2004]

What happens if (states the obvious) |

<semi-off-topic>The bank I worked at was robbed by a young man who understood the concept of "marker money" or "bait." (A bundle of bills containing an exploding dye packet, designed to be set off upon removal from the vicinity of the bank.) He removed the "bait" from the bag before he left the bank and stuffed it down his trousers... |

The police found him about half a block away writhing around on the ground.</s-o-t> |

Make it a poisoned spike that shoots up through the bottom of the seat and I might vote for it. |

Bearing in mind the amount of times car alarms go off for no reason, I'd have to say: bad idea, paint-filled car. |

Various marking thieves with dye schemes are Baked, though I haven't seen it for cars. The problem with doing it for your car is when your toddler is playing in the front seat,or you are groggy from not having had your first cup of coffee. |

Some pepper sprays come with UV dye, to identify the criminial later. |

No good. Spend 10 minutes standing in a supermarket or mall parking lot and see how many people accidentally set off their own alarms. |

I've spent hours in big superstore parking lots waiting on somebody and have only seen one person set off their own vehicles alarm system, and that was a 8 year old girl |

Sounds a bit young to have her own vehicle. |
