If you’ve never used Aurora paint before, or perhaps even if you have, you may be wondering how it stacks up against other competing glow in the dark paints?

In our various marketing materials we often say that we’ve spent time developing Aurora to have the strongest glows possible and not just be another ‘me too’ glow in the dark paint. We’ve worked extensively with our factories to produce a paint that has a much stronger and longer lasting glow than other glow in the dark paints. Well, it’s time we showed the results of all this effort…

Here’s a competitor comparison time-lapse video showing Aurora vs. 5 competing paints over a 4 hour period (note: Aurora glows for much longer than 4 hours, but we kept the comparison to this length because this is when most of the visible difference in performance between the paints can be seen).

So as you can see from the above video, Aurora beats out the competition by quite a margin!

Three paints barely last an hour, with one not even lasting 15 minutes!! Another lasts about 2 hours which leaves just one remaining with Aurora. The last one (paint ‘D’ in the experiment) holds up well but is still not quite as bright as Aurora.

So, the conclusion? …If you want a truly powerful glow in the dark paint, choose SpaceBeams Aurora! 😉

Note: To keep the test fair, in this experiment the exact same volume of paint was used for each. Some of the paint swatches look a little different in shape, but this is simply because some are more liquid than others and so spread out more after applied.
