Title: Glow In The Dark
Post by: printguy on March 13, 2015, 07:14:45 AM

Been a while since using glow in the dark - have a potential order looming and don't know if we can produce what the custy wants. Printing a dark heather tee and they want the glow color to be close to the shirt color, which would show up in the dark after getting hit by light. Is this even possible?

I think that wiith any glow inks, a white/light background or underbase is needed, so the idea of an almost stealth-in-the-light-but-glow-in-the-dark effect on darks isn't going to fly

That Allureglow light without power site has some good stuff, they also have some reflective stuff that may work. Brian the owner is very helpful.
The pictures don't do it justice it will glow with a dark background. It's a royal and clear test print on a navy shirt.
