Invisible paint appears in modern fiction as a magic substance. When painted on things, the objects disappear. It has appeared in The Learning Company's game as well as in the 1964 Looney Tunes cartoon War and Pieces. It has also been used in Disney's cartoon television show Tale Spin. The most recent appearance is the SpongeBob SquarePants episode Pranks a Lot. In Enid Blyton's Wishing Chair series (1937) the Wishing Chair is painted with invisible paint then repainted to make it visible again. As the children are using the invisible paint to make the chair visible again they run out of paint, leaving what appears to be a small hole in the back rest. The hole can be seen through but is solid to the touch.
