Glow in the Dark Powder

How To Use Glow In The Dark Powder?

We want there to be no limits to what you can do with phosphorescent powder. That’s why we offer particle sizes ranging from 15 microns, which is very fine, up to 500 microns in diameter. For the ultimate performance and strength, we recommend the ultra glow series. A quality photoluminescent pigment that is free of formaldehyde and ECO-friendly. The standard powder line is anything but ordinary. Ultra and standard pigments consist primarily of europium and dysprosium doped strontium aluminate. These have glow times up to 50 times longer than conventional powder. The specialty glow series contains a variety of rare pigments. Use the product filter to refine your search. Materials are non-toxic, non-radioactive, and contain no phosphorus, lead, or other hazardous chemicals.

Mix glow pigment with clear or transparent mediums such as paint, resin, epoxy, urethane, plastic, glass, nail polish, clay, rubber, film-forming cement sealers, silicone, glue, powder coating, spray paint, or any topical clear coating. We recommend mix ratios between 15% to 33% glow powder. One kilogram (2.2 lbs.) of powder is perfect to mix with 1 gallon of clear, such as wall paint or polyurethane. For resin and epoxy, the 20% ratio works well. The pigment will settle in resin to the bottom, leaving you with a nice clear top that can be sanded and buffed to your liking. Most clear resins will not block much of any light. Multiple layers or a higher powder ratio will produce a brighter, more solid glow. Too low of a powder ratio can cause an uneven and spotty glow. Use plastic, ceramic, or glass mixing containers and utensils.
