Leak

finder

® can be used in virtually any vehicle low pressure system suspected of having a leak, such as;

intake / induction, intercooler and turbocharger, vacuum, exhaust, EVAP and even wind/water leaks. Can 
also be used to verify air solenoid functions and test components prior to assembly. 

Exhaust 

Fluorescent Dye Deposit 

The UltraTraceUV® smoke solution contains a special 
ultraviolet-activated  fluorescent  dye  that  deposits  at 
the exact location of a leak. Use the UV light provided 
to highlight the dye. 

>

The  longer  the  smoke  is  allowed  to exit  a  leak,  the

more dye will be deposited

.

>

This  technology  has  been  designed  so  that  the  dye

deposits  only  if  there  is  pressure-differential.  So  for
instance; the dye will deposit when exiting a leak but
will not deposit during a wind and water leak test.
