🎨 Vibrant Neon Assortment: 2oz UV Blacklight Reactive Fluorescent Acrylic Paints by DirectGlow Review

The product is required for Easter night hunts. The product came in an open package without any of the six colors. I am very unhappy with the situation he put me in and the fact that this happened in the first place. Who doesn't notice the open packaging and the fact that there were only five bottles in it when it was shipped!

It was quite expensive and the fill volume was variable, 2 units were closer to 2/3 full. 1 unit (pink) was out of solution and brittle making it virtually unusable. For the price and small size, I expect the bottles to be always full and flawless. It was what I needed for the project so I booked the cost but wasn't entirely happy; it really works, it's bright and looks very nice in the back light.

Colors look great in normal light and even better in blacklight. The only thing though is that they aren't thick, so you'll need to layer them to get the right consistency. To save paint I just painted the base color with regular acrylic paint and applied a layer of black light paint on top. So I applied base color, then black color, and it worked great. I recommend them for those experimenting as they are cheap. Act!

So I'm thinking this would probably work for a simple project like applying UV decoration to the outside of a fish tank, but for actual painting? Terrible. The consistency is very liquid, several layers are required for application. With this material, it is very difficult to get an even coating and it is very noticeable. When I put it under a black light, there were streaks all over it. Even after multiple coats of paint. Blue doesn't really glow and neither does green, at least not very well.

I painted a mural of the solar system in a 30' x 10' x 15' room. This mural was intended for the sensory room of a special school. I researched different colors and reviews before deciding on this product and was pleasantly surprised at how far I could stretch this color and how well the product interacted with blacklight. My biggest concern was the amount of color. I didn't have hundreds of dollars to spend on specialty paint. To save money I first primed and painted the fresco with regular…

I'm an art student and use these paints on one of my main pieces and here is a little of what I learned after using these paints. They are bright and pleasant because they are fluorescent. BUT they must be painted over a white background or the colors will be very "muted" and not show their true neon colour. Also, they are very watery and dripping. I need multiple coats to get full coverage on the desired area. Which isn't too bad as I can't find neon colors anywhere, but they are quite…
