Works really well after several applications
Works really well if you apply several coats (I applied 3 coats) and the surface you are painting is non porous/sealed first. Really happy with the results.

It’s cool
We painted some pumpkins with this paint and it worked very good. With the last bit of the can I was able to paint my Tiki. The Tiki turned out great. You do have to charge it up with a light for a minute to really get it going. Pretty expensive can of paint, but it’s cool.

Glows just fine
I love this paint for my pots. Just like any glow-in-the-dark products, they must be charged with light in order to see any glow.

This paint works great...
This paint works great, if you understand how spray paint works, and realize an aerosol spray paint won't hold a charge for hours on end. Several light coats of this paint instead of dumping an entire can straight onto a project will work MANY times better. After charging under a bright light, this paint results in an amazing glow for about 10-15 minutes. Don't expect it to glow for hours, but it worked far better than I expected after reading the other reviews here.

Read direction correctly.. it works!!!
Anyone who says it doesn't work. Your not applying it right. Read the direction. What I did was purchase the Rustoleum white paint and primer in one for the base color..3 coats wait about 20 minutes to apply each coat of white primer.. Then spray 5 coats of Glow.. again wait 20 minutes in between coats. Then if you want for a final finish.. throw 2 coats of Rustoleum clear gloss and your all set and finished. It won't glow in the dark if you apply 1 coat of glow and it's has to have a white base primer for the first coat. It won't work with any dark base color just a white. It may take a few hours till the product is actually finished just because the amount of coats you have to apply. Trust me it works. It's doesn't glow for 4 to 8 hours but it's actually glows for maybe 20 minutes to half hour. If you have a blacklight it will just stay glowing till you shut the light off.. Then again it will glow for 20 to 30 minutes and then it fades away.

Glowing good time!
I made a clock and used this on the glass stones I used for the numbers. Works well. I want to try it on other projects. Works best if a light color is behind it. On my project I use silver on the back of the stones after I paint them in the glow in the dark spray. Then I sealed them in clear.
