Glow Worm - Phosphorescent Powder - 6 Ounce (Yellow-Green)

I can't rave about this enough. I painted my bike helmet with the easily found glow paint, after applying a layer of reflective paint, and was disappointed with the results despite using as much paint as was supposed to cover 4sqft on a helmet.I figured I would give this a shot and am thrilled at the results. After a few minutes of sunlight it visibly glowed indoors (in lowish light) and was easily photographed in the dark.I did find, in the ratio I used, the powder and clear coat made for a thick gloopy paint - so gloopy I kept thinking I had made a terrible mistake as I added the layers. After sanding it down I rather liked the final texture - and a few straight clear coat layers on top glossed it up and smoothed it nicely. But the next time I use this, I will be sanding every layer and using a finer detail brush for complex shapes.I seriously look forward to ordering more, something I really can't say happens often. Absolutely worth the effort and time to apply.Photo Notes: The helmet and the mud guard fender together used up 6oz of powder, with the bulk on the helmet. So that gives you an indicator of how much powder to area I covered -- but it was thick and I sanded down quite a bit due to my poor application method. Sanding every time and using a more dilute mix of powder:clear coat will waste far less powder.Edit: Still pleased with how this has held up. Adding a non-charged daylight photo for those wanting to know how white it is during the day. You can see it isn't paper towel white.

Made an amazing glow table with this. My wife liked it so much, I made a "glow bartop" for the kitchen. A little goes a long way. I made a pecky cypress "glow desk" for my daughter, a bartop for my kitchen (110" long x 18") and I've only used about 60% of the bottle.The glow is BRIGHT and last for HOURS and HOURS! Seriously, when the sun light comes through the window and shines on the table in the afternoon, the table is still glowing well after dark. It's like having a cool blue nightlight. But in the light there is nothing to give away the fact that it glows, it just appears to be a creamy white and slightly opaque.As others have said, if you use this with epoxy, use a relatively fast-curing epoxy if you want the powder to stay in solution and not settle down to the bottom of the holes.

I'm using this powder to make magical glow-in-the-dark glass bottles for necklaces. It comes as a very fine powder which I mixed it with the uv curing resin, Magic-Glos. It cured well and glowed brightly. (I did cure it a little bit longer than usual because the powder adds a little opacity to the resin.)I was very happy with it. It starts off very bright - you can even see the glow in a room with low lighting. Over time, the glow diminishes, but it's still pretty bright after a couple of hours. In fact, I exposed it to bright light at around 9 pm and by morning there was still a (very dim) glow.

Works as it says mostly. Didn't show up at all when mixed with mica powders for resins. Only parts that glow are absent of colors. Fun for plain applications or multi pour projects. Waiting to see how a light base pour with glow shows up with second layer of darker color behind it. Mixed it with some poly enamel clear coating. Fingers crossed

Beware this is not Blue/green during the day. It is off white. I have another company's green powder and blue powder and it is the same color during the day and makes a beautiful glow in the dark product too (same color). We were extremely disappointed when we opened this and it was not colored (which you can't tell from this photo). We thought maybe the color would show when mixed with resin. It did not. This is not described! The company was nice enough to refund my money. We only used a tiny amount to test it. A better description would have helped avoid our time wasted purchasing this product and then having to buy another product to meet our needs.

Mixed in with slime (Elmer's, Borax, Water) we made during a kids party. Trying to pre-mix in water first turned out worse due to clumping than making the slime and then sprinkling the Glow Worm powder over the slime and kneading. I ended up using about 1/2 tsp per 6oz of slime for a subtle glow effect. You'll need to mix in a lot more for something more pronounced.Note that the'blue' is quite subtle. Looks almost white.

I am suprised it works as good as it looks in the advertisment. I am mixing it with a resin. Once I mix with the resin it starts to glow within minutes under a lamp. I love this stuff and hope it never goes out of stock. I am making custom designs with resin so the only thing is a little bit of trial and error as to how much i am supposed to use versus how much I can get away with to still get the same results. Overall great product.

Glows great but extremely gritty and difficult to apply evenly
