FAQs

How long does the glow last?

The glow duration depends on the charging time and the ambient lighting conditions. Generally, it can last for several hours after being charged.

Can I use this paint outdoors?

While the paint is durable, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and weather conditions may affect its performance. It is best used indoors or in protected outdoor environments.

What kind of light is best for charging?

Direct sunlight or a UV light source provides the most effective charging.

Can I mix this paint with other colors?

Yes, you can mix the paint with light-colored acrylic paints in a 1:1 ratio. Avoid using dark colors as they will reduce the glow effect.

How many coats should I apply?

For optimal results, apply two or more thin coats, allowing each coat to dry completely before applying the next.

What should I do if the paint spills?

Clean up spills immediately with soap and water while the paint is still wet. Dried paint can be more difficult to remove.

Is the paint safe for children?

The paint is non-toxic, but as with all art supplies, supervise children during use.

Troubleshooting

Glow is not bright.

Ensure the painted surface has been charged under direct sunlight or UV light for a sufficient amount of time. Apply more coats of paint.

Paint is clumpy.

Ensure the paint is properly mixed. If the paint has dried, add a small amount of water and stir.

Paint doesn't adhere to the surface.

Make sure the surface is clean and properly prepared. Consider using a primer if necessary.
