    Glow-On gun sights paint purchase options real size

    In the diagram below we attempt to show the real life size of some presentations of Glow-On Super Phosphorescent.
    sometimes it seems that the better option is to buy larger size vials because one gets more bang for the buck. However it can be an overkill if we don't have use for the paint and after a year or so when we open the small vial the paint has seized and dried ( which is what paint does).

    The diagram has been corrected ( the diagram on previous posts the self adhesive was out of proportion), if right click on the photo and choose "view image" to see it in real size.

    Super Phosphorescent gun sights paint: The highest standards rule , always.

    This is the challenge:
    I know if I'm in the market for a small quantity of premium glow in the dark paint for my gun sights, fishing lures, etc. there is a handful of brands I can go with to fulfill my need for glow stuff.
    What I'd be looking for :
    The brightest afterglow.
    Superior daytime visibility.
    Non-toxicity.
    Non radioactive product to be safe.
    A non flammable, non combustible product because I plan to use it on a firearm.
    Superior adherence.
    Resistance to chemical corrosion.
    If any of the above fails,:ohnoes: a 100 % money back guarantee or a 100% no extra cost, free replacement.



    Simply put:The brightest the initial afterglow a product displays, the longer it will glow. All things being equal and Dollar for Dollar you'll always get more from Glow-on Super Phosphorescent.

    There is a reason why we're number one gun sights paint in the USA.

    Glow-On gun sights paint: Can this stuff be 'charged' by LED lighting?

    can this stuff be 'charged' by LED lighting?
    Absolutely, a small tactic lamp will suffice, they go together like PB & J.

    Preparedness is the key here. Plan ahead, practice for any eventuality, have the right stuff at hand and make sure is in good condition.

    How do I know if I have applied enough paint to my gun sights?

    xd40sgiht2.jpg


    How do I know if I have applied enough paint to my gun sights? Is there a chart somewhere to check if I have done the best that can be done with the product?

    On top of every vial of Glow-On there is a small dot made with the same material inside the vial. One can check immediately the properties of Glow-On upon the products arrival.
    This dot is a good point of reference to compare our gun sights job, if the result is not the same, we might need to apply a bit more, etc, etc.
    thinking.gif
    Factors like thickness of the application and drying time are important assessing the afterglow.

    With the self adhesive it's a lot simpler, its a single layer and it can be applied only as a single layer

    How long will the Original color glow for?



    How long will the Original color glow for?

    From our web page:
    Advantages

    For how long will it glow after full exposure?

    Full charge can be achieved in a few seconds under a small LED flashlight.
    Under daylight, this happens almost instantaneously.
    Under daylight, Glow-On constantly emits and reflects light, making the transition from illuminated to dark areas very smooth.

    The afterglow duration time is 1200 minutes until decay is complete (as tested at the laboratory).
    This means the phosphorescent activity ends completely at that time. To the human eye it is perceptible 5-7 hours, depending on individual sensitivity.




    The initial glow is very bright, brighter than tritium, and it starts to decay slowly for hours. If you have good night vision (natural human eye adaptation to the dark) the glow will be clearly perceived by you all night long, even if it is faint.
    A couple of seconds under a led flashlight will revive the glow to its fullest.
    This cycle can be repeated millions of times during the life of the product which is about ten years.

    Luminous gun sights paint for a backyard scan.

    Haven't used my glow on for a while and now when I go to use it I see that
    it has hardened quite a bit in the bottle. Can I loosen it up with some water or
    something else?




    This happens as the water content in the small bottle evaporates and the mix seizes , which it's intended to do while it dries.
    This happens to any kind of paint over a period of time, specially if the jar, can, vial, is very small or if the amounts of paint are very small.


    To solve this issue we just add a couple of drops of water and the mix will re-acquire the paint consistency, that is creamy.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On a different note, yesterday we installed new security lights and cameras outside a friends house and we took some photos with a couple of sidearms. We were trying to simulate what our Glow-On enhanced gun sights would look while we scanned the area.

    Of course in the presence of bright light Glow-On initial glow is not incredible. In any case, we were happily surprised to see our product performing very well while we walked for several minutes around the area.
    Needles to say, we exposed the gun sights to the small 6 LED pocket flashlights we all carry in our pockets. But, only for a period of about five seconds.

    A quick scan over my property or grounds shouldn't be a problem.
    thinking.gif

    I should have the advantage because I know it beforehand and most usually I'll be there first, which means I should have control of the situation.
    Whether I have security lights or a single flashlight, Glow-On will serve me well as I establish a safe zone.

    For this specific situation, a 5 second exposure of the small flashlight over my gun sights and I'm ready to check things out.

    Under some extreme conditions you can line up a shot with Glow-On gun sights paint

    Under some extreme light conditions one can line up a shot with Glow-On.
    True, one might not needed for other situation.

    It's just that extra thing to rise our chances a bit, just in case.

    Just like carrying some extra change for the parking meter.

    100% customer support from Glow-On.

    "How much paint do I need for 5 guns?"

    A: One small vial (2.3 ml) will more than enough for this job. In fact there's enough for more than 25 pistols.
    35.gif
    And that's a conservative estimate.

    After every use I add a few drops of water to the top and close the vial as tightly as I can.
    This should keep the paint fresh for a few months.
    In fact, one could fill the vial to the top after every use, and when the time comes to use it again, just tip the vial to get the excess water out and stir, fresh paint again
    wave.gif
    .

    Water won't damage the paint and it will keep it fluid.
    If the paint show crumbs after a few months, just add water and stir vigorously.
    If one adds too much water and the paint is to thin, just keep the vial open for a few hours for the excess to evaporate.

    You get the idea, water is the key to keep it fresh.
