"Seth has taken the card blister effect to the limit! Such a smart idea. Every magician will definitely wanna carry this effect with them." - Jimmy Strange, creator of Replica

"Scar Tissue by Seth Race takes the blister card effect to the 21st Century. This method allows you to get a blister of ANY named card right in front of your audience with no pocket work or fumbling. If you can’t use a lighter or open flame, no problem. This will become your new, favorite EDC item. Recommended." - Tim Trono, creator of Branded

Reveal the identity of ANY playing card in blisters on your finger. This isn’t a pipe dream. This is
a utility device that hides in plain sight on your everyday carry. Take the classic blister effect to
the next level with the revelation of a named card scorched onto your fingertips with Scar Tissue
by Seth Race.

Here’s what happens:

You have a card freely chosen by your spectators. The selection is genuinely free; they can even shuffle the deck before they select the card. The spectator uses a marker to write down the identity of the card on a piece of paper. The paper is burned, and suddenly the magician reacts as though the spectator is burning not just the paper but also the magician. When the magician’s hand is examined, the image of the selected card’s identity is shown as angry blisters bubbling up on their fingertips.

Scar Tissue is a specially designed cap that fits right on top of your existing Sharpie marker. This specially designed cap has been engineered to be able to quickly and easily impress any named card onto your index finger and thumb. In addition to the basic routine, Seth teaches you numerous routines that will get monster reactions from your audience. The blister effect is a modern classic that has been performed by working pros all over the world. Now all 52 cards are at your fingertips when you perform Scar Tissue by Seth Race.

Pretty good Report this review

It’s a cool idea to have all outs on a single cap but a little crowded and some outs are little harder to get to for a reliable impression. YMMV

Blisters are small and weak Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 1st, 2023
Only reason I prefered this over any other blister device is to do blister of a named card. Getting past how awkward it is to use(you can get used to it with practice). Device is crowded. Blisters are small, faded and sometimes when you are trying to get the value the suit is already gone and getting both impressions at the same time is not an option for most outs either because of the layout. Also small problem but because sharpie caps are rounded your blistered finger will also have a rounded indent. I think just forcing a card and using a different device is better.

G.O.A.T of Blister Effects! Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 25th, 2023
The quality of this effect is top notch. The blisters are perfect and the utility is organic. Every street magician uses a sharpie for signed card effects so this simply makes perfect sense! Well thought out Seth! 🤙🙌

Poor impression Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on July 22nd, 2023
Great looking box to house the gimmick.
However the gimmick doesn't cut it for me.
The impressions are weak and some are difficult to get at for the effect.
The impressions are small and not very visible. Because the impression is on a rounded surface it puts a concave dent on the skin.
The idea of having an impression device out in the open is good, but it does not work very well on the cap. It is too congested . It would be better on a card box.
Third Degree Burn and Branded in my opinion are much better than Scar Tissue.

Very good trick Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 2nd, 2023
Very simple gimmick, and creates a strong production with any card available at your finger tips. You can create alot different routines for your own style. Top quality gimmick, will last a life time, with a good tutorial explaining everything you need to know. Would definitely recommend for advance and beginners

Excellent idea, underwhelming execution Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on August 15th, 2023
Picked this up in Open Box for a reasonable price. The idea is sound and the gimmick very nearly works. It's just that some of the impressions are much weaker and less clear than others. If anyone chooses a Jack, for example, expect a confused and underwhelmed reaction. It's not a clear J (having it appear as a capital letter would have been much clearer). This should have been addressed at prototype stage. Why not remove the clip on the cap, thereby freeing up more space? Nobody notices a clip (I think Jon Allen removed the clip on his Flexion gimmick).

The tutorial is a bit poor. The routines are ok and Seth tries his best, but what is really required is an in-depth look at handling the gimmick up front. Instead, handling is addressed in a fairly garbled, piecemeal fashion throughout the download. Nick or Erik would have done a much more thorough job. Maybe they could be roped in to cover some of the handling issues in a further download?

I think this is one of the most visual ways to reveal a card, really impressive.

Super clever Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 9th, 2023
Just received the scar tissue trick in the mail. Shipping was very fast! Packaging and gimmick are outstanding. The reveal of the chosen card is on the tip of the thumb and index finger. In playing with the gimmick, I think a reveal on the tip of the index finger and middle finger may show a bit better, at least for me.

Magic & Tutorial is on point... Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 5th, 2023
You get your moneys worth with this effect. I'd suggest that any mentalist and/or magician should have one (or two) of these in their repertoire. Great Work!!

Good thinking, but poor prop Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 23rd, 2023
I watched the tutorial before trying out the prop & was pretty excited what it potentially offers. It's good thinking here including Routines includes but... my major disappointment it doesn't work for me. I echo some of the reviews here; poor impressions if any at all, & I consider my fingers rather podgy though.

Will be happy to support with another purchase for the next iteration that works. Nonetheless good thinking & kudos for those who can make this work.
