Aurora
Glow In The Dark Paint – Bright Green
Non-Toxic | Water Based | Non-Flammable
Aurora by SpaceBeams is a non-toxic highly concentrated glow in the dark paint which uses top grade strontium aluminate pigments in durable & ultra-adhesive acrylic solution. Aurora paint can't be beaten on both strength and duration of its glows. One strong charge can create glows that last until morning!
For best results, common to all glow in the dark paints, apply thickly (ideally 2mm+), preferably on lighter backgrounds, and charge for a few seconds with a strong light source (ideally a UV flashlight or direct sunlight).
Aurora glows brightly whether wet or dry. However, for use outdoors it's best to varnish over as this will protect it from moisture degradation. Once dried, Aurora lasts longest on hard, rigid surfaces. Not recommended for skin and hair.
We formulated Aurora to be thick for maximum glows. This gives you the option to retain that thickness, or for more detail orientated work when a thinner consistency is required, you can thin it with water as desired. Be sure to only add one drop of water at a time because Aurora can thin quite quickly.
Aurora can be cleaned easily with soapy water. However Aurora dries quickly, so don't leave brushes out for long without rinsing them.
In general Aurora will dry within 30-60 minutes. However, very thick applications may need longer than an hour.
Aurora paint can be recharged for at least 10 years, and likely many more, without loss of glow performance!
Customer Comments:
“This is great! I didn't know they made a paint this good… WOW! it really does glow brightly after a brief exposure to bright light and then turning the lights off and it really does keep glowing for a long time!”
“I have several other brands of glow in the dark paint (I just love to make things glow), and this one glows brighter after it is used and dried than any of the others I've tried.”
Top Tip - UV Light
UV light is far superior at charging glow in the dark paint than standard home-lighting. So exposure to sun light will make a huge difference to the glow effect. If sunlight is limited where you've painted aurora, a strong UV flashlight will also work very well with just 15-30 seconds exposure being enough to create bright and long-lasting glows.
Top Tip - Varnish
Varnish over Aurora glow in the dark paint with a clear-coat when using it outside. Aurora can hold up relatively well against rain by itself once dried, however varnishing over will help further protect your handy work from the elements and make it last as long as possible outdoors. As long as you pick a clear varnish, Aurora's glow will not be effected either!

Customer Comments:
“This is AMAZING!!! IT REALLY WORKS!!!! I bought this for my mom to see the remote at night, and it glowed all night! I love this stuff!!!”
“Once it is charged it glows for longer than the craft store glow paint. It is also not as gritty once it has dried as other glow paints are. … Aurora takes less layers than other brands. So far no chipping or wear off.”
