TIW Self Defence Spray - Marker (original)

TIW Self Defence Spray - Marker

The TIW Self Defence Spray (Marker) is a compact, legally permitted self-defence spray designed to confuse and visibly mark an assailant. The unit dispenses a brightly coloured, sticky gel that foams on contact with skin or clothing, temporarily impairing vision and leaving a visible mark to aid identification by witnesses or police.

Detailed description

Designed for quick access and use, the TIW Marker fits easily in a bag, pocket or on a key-clip. The formula produces a coloured gel that foams and irritates on contact, reducing the attacker’s sight for a short period while leaving a persistent stain that remains visible for days. The canister typically features a safety cap to prevent accidental discharge and an ergonomic housing to ensure a secure grip during use.

Use & benefits

• Immediate deployment: aim at the attacker’s face and press the actuator.

• Marking function: bright, difficult-to-remove colour that assists later identification.

• Legal alternative in the Netherlands: designed as a marking/desorienting agent rather than OC/CS spray.

• Portable format: easy to carry on person or attached to gear.

• Multiple short bursts possible per canister (varies by model).

Typical specifications

• Volume: approx. 40 ml (varies by version)

• Effective range: about 2–3 metres (model and conditions dependent)

• Agent: sticky, foaming colour gel / paint-gel

• Safety: protective cap or twist-lock to prevent accidental activation

Safety & legality

TIW Marker is marketed in the Netherlands as a legal alternative to pepper spray because it uses a colouring/irritant gel rather than OC/CS agents. Only use in legitimate self-defence situations; misuse can lead to legal consequences. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and local regulations.
