Tips and advice for using luminescent paints

Luminescent paint opens up a wealth of possibilities when it comes to DIY projects. We sell paint in all the colours of the rainbow, which can be used to add a little extra colour to everyday life after dark. But how does it work – and how do you use the paint in practice?

Our paint is fluorescent, which means that during the day it absorbs energy from its surroundings, which it then converts into light when it's dark. It can therefore feel completely magical. The intensity of the light varies depending on how many layers you paint. Luminescent paints have the greatest effect on light surfaces, where you can typically apply 2-4 coats, while on darker surfaces you will need to apply some extra coats to achieve the same effect. Try it out! Remember that the paint must dry completely between each layer to achieve a satisfactory result.
