NEXTGLOW is a
high quality Glow in the Dark Paint. After it has been exposed to light,
this Phosphorescent Paint guarantees more than 12 hours of light. It can be applied with brush or spraying, you can use our
Spray Gun.
FEATURES: It has different properties from a common paint, in fact in the light the paint appears semi-transparent and whitish. But
after the exposure to light, in the dark it gives off a pale green light. That emission fades over time but persists for more than 12 hours. The phosphorescent effect works thanks to the UV-sensitive pigments (5-15 microns) contained in the paint, able to absorb light.
(Look at Technical Details below)..
HOW TO USE: The luminescent effect is very easy to be obtained. Just varnish the surface with the glow in the dark paint, expose it to light for some time, and then in the dark the phosphorescent light will appear. Or if you want to see the luminous effect immediately, just light the painted surface with black light (Wood's Lamp). We recommend the application on white surfaces to make the pigment absorb more light. Remember to mix the paint well before and during the application, because the pigments collect them on the bottom of the glass. You can spray the paint or use the brush. For spraying you may need to dilute the glow in the dark paint with polyurethane thinner, but use only little quantity of thinner.
Content in one glass: 250 gr of concentrated product.
NOT RADIOACTIVEThe treated surface is a bit rough because of the luminous pigments, if you want a smooth surface
apply on the paint a lacquer without UV filters. Remember to
use always lacquers without UV filters on phosphorescent paint, never use those with UV filters, because they damage the properties of the pigments in absorbing light.

PHOSPHORESCENT and
GLOW IN THE DARK are synonyms. They refer to the particular property of this kind of paints that are able to absorb light and glow then in the dark thanks to the pigments contained in them.
Do not confuse with FLUORESCENT paint, because it can not produce light in the dark.
