Glow in The Dark Fabric Paint - Pack of 8 Neon Fabric Paint Colors for Clothes & Textiles - UV and Blacklight Clothing Paint for Halloween Costumes, Easter Egg Painting Decoration - 20 mL

I felt a real need to write a review to counter some of the negativity regarding this product, because much of it comes from a lack of comprehensive understanding about phosphorus based paints in the first place.First you have to understand the physics of phosphorus GLOW IN THE DARK paint, because this is a UV reflective paint, the paint itself coats and reflects UV light away from the phosphate crystals used to create the glow, so that makes it more difficult to charge than if it is in a clear or white based paint that allows more light to hit the particles.That being said this paint actually does glow, but you need more than a standard lamp or sunlight to charge it, you need a UV light! It also varies because of the color, darker colors like blue are much more dim and don't last as long as brighter colors like yellow. The longest any of them will last is about 15 minuets, which is about standard for this type of product. There are some phenomenal products that will glow for hours, but they are also only come in white or cream day colors, because as I stated, the neon day light color impacts the effectiveness of the glow.Another thing that needs to be taken into account is keeping it mixed-up properly, if you don't stir it, shake it and keep it mixed, the phosphorus particles tend to settle to the bottom and group together, meaning part of the paint on top may not have much or any glowing factors in it.This is an acrylic paint, so it's good for most plastica and wood, stone, ect., but it is water based so it will not handle long exposure to outdoor elements and rain, and as I've said, it takes more than just sunlight to charge it. I have a little UV pin light that actually works pretty good, and the neon colors reflect very well, then it will glow for a short time when removed.I bought this paint to use on projects like highlights on some of my action figures, to make the eyes reflect back and glow at night, so far I have no dissapoint considering the nature of the product. Maybe some folks expectations are a bit too high, but honestly this product works fine for the unique nitch it's meant to fill!

I read the reviews and some people had a couple colors come out clumpy but my colors didn’t. I did had to shake the little container before using it. And it did come very watery so I had to use a base color and then top it with this neon one to get it the glow effect. As for the glowing part, it worked only with a black light. I tried charging it but it didn’t really work. Then again the container does say up fabric paint black light.

Initially, I ordered this for decorating skin as it was advertised as such, but one of the first directions is not to put it on skin. With a base/prep layer, nothing bad happened during use. But this paint is hard to work with!I ordered this multipack (in 3s) because it was the most affordable by ounce. The colors are very vibrant but the consistency of the paints vary a lot. The white was generally silky once shaken, but blue was like paste and it would not mix with the white. This made line-work on multiple materials impossible because the paint would clump up and look very sloppy. All 3 packs were the same. This is likely due to the nature of using real minerals to accomplish the glow in the paint, but I’ve mixed smoother paints by hand with just glow powder and clear or white paint.Do the minerals glow? Eh. The green will understandably last the longest at a few seconds at most, not not enough that anyone would even notice. Notice the very subtle glow in the shadow section of the green paint in the attached photo. I don’t think that I will order glow paint again that contains real glow powder, I will use regular UV reactive acrylic paints (Neon Nights is a good brand and I order other paints from them) and keep making my own glow paints. Having used both, for 99% of the time, you would never need to buy this kind of paint, so work with what is easiest and affordable. I still gave this 4 stars because it does do what it tries to do given the materials, and if you want drippy or hard to control lines as a style, I get it.

Incredible color! However my paints came used with a few colors super watered down and others seemed unused. The purple was almost completely water, I had to throw it away.Even though it was used, I decided to keep it. It did take several layers (up to 10) to get an opaque look on the watered down colors. But the thicker, unused paint took maybe 4 layers to look good.I think the paint is worthy of 5 stars, but not the fact that amazon and/or distributor is okay with sending use products to customers who expect new.
