1. What is JENOLITE Glow In The Dark Spray Paint?
JENOLITE Glow In The Dark Spray Paint is a high-grade, acrylic-based luminous paint that absorbs light and emits it slowly in darkness. It is ideal for art, craft projects, and safety signage, creating a glow effect that is only visible in low-light or dark conditions.
2. What are the key benefits?
- Glow in the dark: Paint absorbs light and emits it slowly for stunning illumination in the dark.
- Multi-surface application: Works on wood, metal, plastic, and other surfaces.
- Perfect for art & craft: Adds a unique, eye-catching glow to creative projects.
- Safety signage: Makes markings or signs visible in low-light conditions.
- Unique effect: Only visible in darkness, creating a surprising and intriguing finish.
3. What surfaces can it be used on?
- Wood
- Metal
- Plastic
- Porous surfaces (with a white primer for optimal glow)
Note: Avoid surfaces already coated with synthetic resin lacquer.
4. How do I prepare the surface?
- Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from grease.
- For porous surfaces, apply a white primer to improve luminescence.
- Remove the no-spray safety ring from the aerosol before use.
5. How do I apply the spray?
- Shake the can well at room temperature.
- Spray several thin layers from a distance of 25–30 cm, ensuring even coverage.
- If desired, apply a clear lacquer once fully cured for added protection and finish.
- Allow each layer to dry before applying the next.
6. What are the recommended working temperatures?
- Minimum: 10°C
- Maximum: 25°C
7. How should I store the aerosol?
- Store in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight.
- After use, turn the can upside down and press the nozzle for 5 seconds to prevent blockages.
- Keep out of reach of children.
8. How long does the glow last?
The glow duration depends on surface preparation, layer thickness, and amount of light exposure. Applying over a white primer and using multiple thin coats will maximise luminescence.
9. Can it be used for safety signage?
Yes. The luminous effect ensures visibility in low-light or dark conditions, making it suitable for emergency signs, hazard markings, and other safety applications.
10. What common mistakes should I avoid?
- Forgetting to remove the no-spray safety ring before use.
- Spraying over greasy, dirty, or wet surfaces — clean first.
- Applying thick coats — multiple thin layers give a more even glow.
- Using on synthetic resin lacquer surfaces — may prevent proper adhesion or luminescence.
- Ignoring recommended temperature range — performance is optimal between 10°C and 25°C.
