Glow in the dark (photoluminescent) Vinyl

[minimad]

Whilst buying some more carbon fibre vinyl for my swing arm decals i cam across this.

Glow in the dark (photoluminescent) vinyl

Looks white with a tint of green in daylight conditions, and glows at night. The vinyl absorbes natural light during the day and discarges at night by producing a glow

Was wondering if there would be any interest in this, for swing arm decals, might even have a go at making wheel stripes as well or really anything you guys want.

Let me know what you think and if i get enough interest ill buy a couple of meteres and see what its like

Looks interesting.......... reminds of those mil spec watches at night.
Does it come in any other color besides nickelodeon slime green? Might be interesting to see it in a Yamaha Blue or Red swingarm decal.

In a similar vein, you can glow in the dark paint in a spray can. I stumbled across this stuff in Halfords (Halfords Glow in the Dark Paint 150ml from Halfords Price £7.99) - so you can undoubtedly get more variety and better prices shopping around!
Never thought of using it though, but I'm sure someone, somewhere has painted their ride with it.

Only thing I would be concerned about is how long the "glow" will last. Having kids the "glow in the dark" stickers and things they have usually don't glow very long after a few months. The good stuff (like gun sights and high end watch pieces that "glow") doesn't absorb ambient light and give it off later. They are radioactive pieces that floress (sp?). Even these don't last forever. I have trijicon sights on a Sig 226 for about 10 years now and they are definitely not as bright as when new.
