Hi

Has anyone got experience with glow in the dark powders? I would like my resin or plaster casts to glow in the dark. I've seen a couple of websites listing powders, but they seen prohibitively expensive as my sculpt is approx 16" x 16" x 6".
Anyone know of any sites in the UK supplying something suitable for my needs.

These are some I've come across already.

Many thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply but unfortuantely the products you mentioned are not what I'm looking for.

I have used Luminova powders frequently in Polytek's water clear 1410 and 1411 urethane resins. A few years later, my parts still glow in the dark. I also used the powders in white, opaque EasyFlo 60 with success.

That is exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for. I will need to check their website or email for prices and availability in th UK.
Many thanks Mold Man Mike.
