10 minute charge from 1000lx.
Medium Compatibility
Silicate glow in the dark pigments are extremely chemically stable and can
exist in almost any medium. This makes them a great choice for use in
mediums that contain water or acid.
Other color pigments in the medium will sometimes shield the glow pigments
preventing them from charging as fast or glowing as bright. Therefore, we
suggest clear mediums when possible.
Ultraviolet filters in mediums may block the ability for glow pigments to
charge. This can both increase charge time or lower brightness depending
on the quantity and quality of the ultraviolet filters. Most paint
manufacturers will have special order product SKUs for non-ultraviolet filter
versions of their paint.
Warning: Many customers try to create a "cheap glow in the dark paint"
by purchasing clear paint from a local source and the raw glow in the dark
pigment from Glow Inc. The majority of these customers end up frustrated.
If you need a paint, then we suggest that you either purchase our premixed
paints or follow the instructions in our how-to articles for specific projects.
