Latent Print Kit

The Latent Print Kit from Forensics Source is a professional-grade fingerprint detection and collection system designed for crime scene investigators, forensic technicians, and law enforcement personnel who require reliable evidence recovery in the field. This kit delivers the precision tools necessary to locate, visualize, and lift latent fingerprints from crime scenes, vehicles, and other investigative environments where fingerprint evidence is critical to case development and identification.

The kit is built around the Zephyr Fiberglass Brush, a specialized applicator engineered to distribute bi-chromatic fingerprint powder with controlled precision across surfaces without damaging delicate latent ridge detail. The bi-chromatic powder (29g/2oz) formulation contrasts effectively against both light and dark backgrounds, allowing investigators to visualize prints that standard monochromatic powders might obscure. The included clear lift tape secures developed prints for preservation and documentation, while the protective tube and secure clip system keep the brush contamination-free during transport and storage—essential for maintaining forensic chain-of-custody integrity and preventing cross-contamination between scenes.

This kit serves law enforcement agencies, forensic laboratories, training institutions, and professional investigators who work vehicle crime scenes, break-ins, and identity crime investigations where fingerprint evidence determines case outcomes. The compact 7.25 x 4.9 x 12.2-inch form factor fits easily into evidence kits and vehicle equipment lockers, making it accessible for first responders and crime scene unit personnel. The fitted insert organization ensures technicians locate components quickly during time-sensitive field operations, while the complete component set eliminates the need for separate powder and tape purchases, reducing investigative downtime and ensuring standardized methodology across all crime scene processing activities.
