POW (Perfect Oil & Water) by Erik Casey & John Michael Hinton

Stop searching. The perfect Oil and Water routine has finally arrived.

POW by Erik Casey and John Michael Hinton takes one of card magic's most beloved classics and strips it down to pure visual poetry. No difficult sleights. No awkward counts. No split cards or finger gymnastics. Just three red cards and three black cards that magically separate right before your spectators' eyes.

The Effect That Made Magicians Do a Double Take
Picture this: You show three blue backed cards with black faces and three red backed cards with red faces. Clear as day. You place them in a glass in perfect alternating order: red, black, red, black, red, black. One magical gesture. That's all it takes. Spread the cards and boom. All the red cards are together, all the black cards are together. Complete, perfect separation.

This is the Oil and Water effect that went mega viral on social media. The one that made Jeki Yoo's Instagram explode. The one that has professional magicians calling it the cleanest version they've ever seen.

Why POW Lives Up to Its Name
Erik Casey spent years cracking what seemed like an impossible puzzle. How do you create an Oil and Water routine that looks this clean without requiring years of sleight of hand practice? The result is so elegant, so deceptive, that it fooled some of the best card workers in the business when they first saw it.

The magic happens at chest height where everyone can see it clearly. No table needed. No awkward angles to worry about. The gimmicked cards do all the work, which means you can focus entirely on your presentation and connecting with your audience.

Three Killer Routines in One Package
Your POW package includes everything you need to perform three different versions of this miracle.

The Glass Version is perfect for parlor magic, table hopping, or any situation where you want maximum visibility. Place the cards in a clear glass so everyone can see the alternating pattern, then watch their jaws drop when the colors separate.

The In the Hands routine is designed for walk around magic and impromptu performances. No props needed beyond the cards themselves. Show the separation happen right in your hands for an intimate, up close miracle.

The Jeki Yoo Viral Version is the one that broke the internet. This handling lets you show both the faces and backs of every card completely openly before and after the color separation. It's so clean, so impossible looking, that laypeople and magicians alike lose their minds.

What Top Magicians Are Saying
Craig Petty calls POW his perfect opener and says it will be in his repertoire forever. Ryan Schlutz describes it as clean as it gets. Kyle Purnell immediately recognized this as a special release that solves a seemingly impossible problem. Magic duo Chase and Kaileigh added it to their stage show because it delivers fooling magic that audiences can actually see from a distance.

These aren't just endorsements. They're proof that POW works in real world performing situations for professional magicians who demand reliability and strong reactions.

So Easy, You'll Feel Like You're Cheating
Here's the beautiful part: if you can spread a handful of cards, you can perform POW. The gimmicked cards arrive ready to use straight out of the box. No construction required. No practice needed to master complicated moves. Just learn the simple handling and you're ready to perform.
