Default Glow-In-The-Dark Paints for Backlighting

Was thinking about trying one of these colors for a backlighting effect on my S4's auto shift plate markers.

Anyone tried these paints? Note the long glow times after charging.

I realize this is a bit late, but I just found this thread after doing a search. I work for a company that sells glow pigments to manufacturers. I just thought I would point out that both of the companies that you mention sell the Grade 4 and Grade 5 pigments. If you want to make something glow, look for a company that sells Grade 1 or 0 pigments. Grade 0 is also sometimes called v10.

There is a forum that discusses glow in the dark projects here:

Thanks,

I would think you could easily do it with some OEL lighting similar to what i did with the door sills.
