Color Clean-Up

Our color products are for anyone and everyone who wants to help us color the world. However, we understand if you don’t want to have your world covered in color powder all the time. Follow these easy clean-up instructions for lasting fun without the lasting mess.

Cleaning Color Powder From People and Clothes

We recommend getting as much of the powders off as you can before adding water to skin or clothes. So shake, bounce, dance, wiggle, and blow off loose color from hair, skin, and clothes while it’s dry. Then, for the straggling color powder on your skin and hair, use a little shampoo and soap and you’re good to go. Or, if you need to freshen up your clothes, just toss them in a load of wash after you’ve done the color-removal boogie, of course.

As a word of caution, our liquid color concentrate is more likely to stain clothes than our color powder products. Though our color powder is not meant to stain clothes, we suggest wearing clothes that you don’t mind getting a little dirty if you plan on making it rain the rainbow.

Cleaning Color Powder from Grass or Streets

If you use our color powder on the grass, it will practically disappear, which makes playing with color powder the ideal outdoor activity year round! If you are planning a field day, carnival, or color palooza on the grass, you’ll never even know it happened, especially after one sprinkler cycle or a good rainstorm.

If you’re planning an outdoor event that will take place on concrete or cement, such as a color run, you’ll be surprised by the easy clean up. Simply sweep or blow away the excess color powder and spray with a hose (or wait for a little help from Mother Nature).

Cleaning Color Powder from an Indoor Event

We love color powder anytime, anywhere. That being said, large, indoor events can create a difficult cleanup. It’s important to keep the color powder away from air systems. After the event, dust color powder off any furniture, and then vacuum or sweep the leftover color powder off the floor. The instructions are the same for small amounts of color powder (such as the color powder you would use for an indoor photo shoot) or if you use Chameleon Colors Mica Powder for crafts.

Color Safety FAQS

Here at Chameleon Colors, we want everyone to have an enjoyable, fun, and safe time with our color products. Please read these safety FAQS and guidelines since you know what they say: “An apple a day keeps…” Oh, wait. Wrong one. “Keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all…” Nope, not that either. Just go on ahead and read the safety FAQs.

Q: What if it the color powder gets in eyes?

A: The easiest solution is to not throw the color powder in the face. Tell anyone who will be touching the color powder to aim for the body and not the head. (Isn’t that always a cheap shot anyway?) You could also encourage participants to wear cool sunglasses to reduce the risk of getting the powder in the eye. If color powder does get into the eye, rinse thoroughly with water until the irritation goes away.

Q: Can we eat the colors?

A: We recommend wearing it, throwing it, even jumping into it, but not ingesting it. If you cannot resist the desire to try it, please know it is gluten-free. Our materials are non-toxic, and technically edible. We just don’t think you’ll want to add our color powders to your culinary craft collection. It is corn starch, but will probably taste like colored dirt.

Q: Can we inhale color powders?

A: Inhaling color powder is like breathing in dust and dirt, extensive exposure is not recommended.

Q: Are the colors safe?

A: Our vibrant colors are made up of corn starch and FD&C and/or D&C colors. Color safety information: Approved for use in foods, cosmetics and/or drugs. These products are not considered hazardous, 29 CFR 1910-1200.

Our Colors-SDS will list any other ingredients you might have questions about.
