This is one of the most incredible glow-in-the-dark paint we have ever seen! The brightness and glow duration are practically the best available today.
You can paint a starscape in a room, complete with planets and comets in color, that will glow through the night. Decorate toys and models for night time fun, or accent your car for special effects at night. Let your imagination and creativity run wild! For tips on using glow-in-the-dark paints, visit our techniques and hints sheet.
The solvent-based ultra green is the second brightest photoluminescent paint currently sold, to the best of our knowledge. It glows yellowish green for 10 or more hours, while appearing almost clear in daylight.
Photoluminescent materials absorb light energy as electrons in their atoms are boosted to high energy levels by absorbing individual light quanta, or photons. Instead of dropping back to where they originally came from, though, these excited electrons transfer to a nearby, intermediate energy level and keep much of the photon energy. Dropping back from this intermediate state, called a metastable state, to ground level is slow going. As these metastable electrons gradually drop back to ground level, they release the rest of their energy as the visible glow we see.
Chemical makeup information. The raw glow pigment is Alkaline Rare Earth Metal Silicate-Aluminate Oxide Europium Doped.
One or two 1/2 ounce bottles of solvent-based paint may be shipped by air. More than two 1/2 oz. bottles must be shipped via surface mail.
