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

For those who are just getting started working with glow in the dark powders, there are plenty of other products out there on the market. I would suggest you not waste your money on any of the other products out there unless they have tritium in them, because nothing comes close to Glow Worm.This product is not only incredibly bright in complete darkness, but it is pretty luminescent in the day as well. I have read that the glow lasts hours, but nothing even close to how well this stuff actually works. I highly recommend it to anyone. One pitfall you should be aware of though. It is only good with clear resins. Not opaque. If you used it as a surface coat it might be okay on an opaque but I sincerely doubt you would get a good result.One other bit of advice. Keep the lid on. Moisture will cause problems with your resin. You do not want foamy results. The price of this product is better than the price of the stuff made by Alumilite. It is also quite a bit brighter.

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.

This is seriously the best glow that I have ever seen! It glows in the dark...but it also glows IN THE LIGHT. It's incredibly bright and beautiful, and it doesn't take much powder. This is the first glow powder I've bought, I admit, but I am very impressed. I hope that this stays available on Amazon for me to purchase in the future!

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.
