the kid Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 Ive just been hunting glow sticks and found this over in America. My first thought is how?Then ok so you can make this stuff but really isnt it going to be really REALLY bad for you? But I suppose a glow in the dark MAC/ROBE/V*L would be weird and cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricochet UK Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 But I suppose a glow in the dark MAC/ROBE/V*L would be weird and cool<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Its Already been done!

One caution that SA based pigment won`t work with water based binders. Couple of other suppliers: http://www.readysetglo.com http://www.glowinc.com/ Always wanted to try thing saw elsewhere, with 2 or 4 " chemical glowsticks with parachutes attached, lauched with compressed air `spud gun` made amazing parachute flares without the fire risk. Care to pass on where youv`e found 4" as low as 2p in bulk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
