Smartwater - A deterrent that works
Smartwater - A deterrent that works Property marking helps police reunite you with any stolen property and is also a real deterrent to thieves.

If an item is marked a thief will probably not steal it because it will be much harder to sell. After all, when there is lots of unmarked property around it's easier to steal that instead.

SmartWater is a chemically based forensic dye likened in concept to DNA profiling and unique to the registered owner. It is colourless, odourless and once applied to valuables such as computers, Hi Fi equipment, cameras, DVD or Video players, tools or anything of value in garden sheds, it is virtually impossible to remove.

If an offending burglar gets SmartWater on them, it is almost impossible to get off and immediately shows up if that person is examined with ultra violet light in a custody suite. A mark just the size of a pinhead is enough for that person to be linked to a crime scene.
Because each application of SmartWater has its own DNA code, it means that any criminals who are later arrested can be linked forensically to the crime scenes.

SmartWater can be purchased direct from www.smartwater.co.uk, or from the Crime Prevention Officers at Stratford Police Station on 01789 444598 or speak to your local Neighbourhood Watch representative.
