Artificial luminous stone is a kind of man-made glow in the dark stone, also called artificial luminous crushed stone, which is a high-tech self-luminous product. The composition is alkaline earth aluminate and silicate activated by rare earth elements.
Applying a layer of transparent cover paint on the surface of the luminous paint can extend the service life of the luminous paint.
If you want the clothes to glow in the dark, you can mix the luminous powder and ink(for fabric) to print on the clothes; or mix the silk thread and the luminous powder to directly make a line that glows in the dark.
No more than 100 mesh, more delicate surface 250 mesh to 400 mesh.
In addition to being related to the quality of the luminous paint itself, there are also traffic flow, pedestrian flow and construction environment.
①It is related to the construction temperature, the quality of the white primer and the top transparent paint, etc.
②Construction according to our instruction, theoretically speaking, the pedestrian walkway is workable for 3 years
③You can try it out with samples first. The temperature and humidity of each area are different. You need to try it yourself.
Generally, two layers are coated, the surface temperature should be below 60℃, and the single layer dosage is 200g. You need to try it in a small area first.
Yes, use exterior glow paint specially developed for metal smooth surface by Glow Technology.
This situation may occur if the paste is water-based and a non-waterproof glow powder is used.
If it is because of the phenomenon caused by our single variable luminous powder, it is that there is a substance in the paste that reacts with the luminous powder. This reaction changes the PH value of the printing paste. In addition, the thickening method he uses is likely to be fumed silica. It reacts with luminous powder.
According to past experience, pH 8-8.5 should be no problem based on clients’ feedback. But the the customer also should do the small test by himself.
It is recommended to try: 400 mesh waterproof luminous powder, because the luminous powder and the rubber or silicone are mixed, if the particle size can not be too big, it will be brighter, and it will not affect the surface smoothness.
We suggest using glow in the dark stone.
Below is the common average particle sizes:
100 mesh – 100 to 110 microns
200 mesh – 50 to 60 microns

The glow in the dark powder is measured as kilo or ton.
Yes, there are specially developed types for applying on metal surfaces.
It is a yellowish-white color during the day time. After the glow in the dark paint is full of energy, it can only be seen glowing in a dark environment.
We recommend you taking Glow Technology’s glow in the dark paint directly. Or you can use luminous powder to mix with your paint. But the first premise is that it must be a transparent paint. You need to control the viscosity of the paint to avoid the luminous powder from settling.
Glow Technology’s coated waterproof luminous powder can be washed. It is our patent product. It can be used for printing ink, water-based paint and etc.
It can be reused for unlimited times. After the glow in the dark things are left in a dark environment for a long time, its energy will be run out. You can recharge it under light, and it will glow again.
Almost make anything that you want to make it glow. Some detailed applications, such as glow in the dark egress signs, glow in the dark screen printing ink, cell phone case, toys, clothes, pavement wall-trick, etc. For more details, click the blog.

Glow Technology glow in the dark powder is non-toxic and harmless, safe, and environmentally friendly.
The encapsulated waterproof luminous powder can be used in a water-based medium, the ordinary luminous powder can not
The luminous duration of the glow in the paint depends on the brightness level of the glowing powder used in the luminous paint. The higher the brightness level, the longer the glowing time. Generally, the bright time of the high-grade luminescent paint will last more than 12 hours. The glow effect can be repeated unlimited times. The paint film duration depends on climate, friction, and many other factors.
The afterglow time of glow in the dark pigment of Glow Technology can reach more than 12 hours.
Put the same particle size luminous powder under the same light, and record the brightness data and the length of the afterglow time. Choose the most suitable luminous powder according to your needs.
The glow in the dark pigment powder is a photoluminescent material that absorbs and stores light during the day and releases it in a dark environment.
It is recommended to buy from a professional manufacturer, and it is not recommended that non-professional people make their own luminous pigments.

Yes. The glow in the dark stars glow because they contain glow powder. It needs to be charged through visible light during the day before it can glow in a dark environment.
If Glow Technology’s top-quality glow powder is used, it can glow more than 12 hours. The glow in the dark stars is fully charged and placed in a dark environment, which will release 99% of energy within an hour, and the remaining 1% can last for more than 10 hours.
According to the definition of the World Luminous Association PSPA, as long as the brightness of the glow in the dark powder exceeds 0.32mcd/m2, it can be defined as that it is glowing. This brightness is the lowest brightness that the human eye can recognize in a completely dark environment.
Depending on the use environment of the luminous paint, humidity, temperature, friction, etc. will affect the durability of the luminous paint.
There are different types of glow in the dark paint, for ground, for the wall, for metals, for outdoor or for other surfaces and environment. The price of luminous paint can be consulted by professional manufacturer Glow Technology. They are a world-leading high-tech manufacturer of glow in the dark powder with over 20 years’ experience.
Glow Technology‘s glow in the dark powder is the brightest and has a long afterglow time over 12 hours. To check the brightness of luminous powder, it should be the same particle size and be charged with the same light sources.
The glow in the dark powder can be used unlimited times.
After the luminous powder is full of energy during the day, you can’t see it glows in bright places. Only in a dark environment can it glow for more than 12 hours. It can be full of energy during the day again, and this process can be circulated indefinitely.
It can’t. If the temperature is too high, the luminous powder will be destroyed. The glow in the powder is recommended to be used under 500℃.
It has powerful light absorption, light storage, and luminescence. It is a light-excited and light-storing luminescent powdery crystals, after being irradiated by natural light, daylight light, ultraviolet light, etc. And then slowly releases it in a fluorescent manner after stopping light irradiation. So at night or in a dark place, we can still see the light, lasting for several hours to ten hours.
The original glow color of glow in the dark powder is yellow-green, it is the brightest and most sold color. There are also another dyed 10 colors available.
Glow in the dark stars glow because of the addition of glow in the dark pigment. A few factors may cause this problem: The quality of the glow in the dark powder is not good, the proportion of the powder added is not enough, the plastic should be transparent to have good glow effect.
And the glow powder need to absorb light energy first to glow, so charge them first with light and then check.
