Quoted from TechnoGlow: "Techno Glow paint colors green, aqua, and blue are recommended for outdoor projects which rely solely on natural UV light. This is because they can glow brighter and longer than any other colors we carry. Initially you may have decent results with other colors, but check on them well after the sun is down and you will notice the glow just can't last into the night the way it would with green, aqua, or blue." & " Strontium aluminate bright glow doped with europium and dysprosium for the ultimate glow." These glow in the dark powders used to make the paints store light energy from sunlight to glow in the dark and also glow under UV lighting because UV light quickly fills up the strontium aluminate outer electron shells. Over time light is given off as the electrons jump from higher to lower electron shells. The glow colors of white, pink, red, purple don't emit light for 10 -12 hours like green, aqua and blue. Just think of the colors of light given off by luminescent dinoflagellates in the ocean, minerals that naturally glow due to the presence of rare earths and mushrooms that glow in the dark. The color spectrum of light emitted is always blue to green.
Yes, absolutely! Our glow paint will have no issues adhering to plastic or fiberglass flower pots. If these pots are going to be outside, we would just recommend sealing the glow paint with a clear waterproof sealer to protect it from the elements.
Our paint is a bit on the thick side for airbrushing. We have finer glow pigments that can be mixed with a clear medium or paint and will work well for airbrushing. Contact us for more technical support at 844-884-3377.
