Glitter Powder Blue-Green 50 g – Glow-in-the-Dark Glitter

The glitter powder combines two effects: in daylight, fine transparent glitter particles sparkle in blue; in the dark, the added glow pigments glow greenish. It is suitable for decoration, resin art and anything that should also sparkle during the day.

Properties

• Material: mixture of fine, transparent glitter and glow pigment based on strontium aluminate
• Colour: sparkling blue by day, greenish in the dark
• Particle size: approx. 75–120 µm (1 µm = one thousandth of a millimetre)
• Afterglow duration: up to 2 hours after a full charge in complete darkness; slightly weaker due to the glitter
• Charging: with any light source, fastest with UV light or sunlight (a few minutes)
• Heat-resistant: up to 150 °C
• Classification: not classified as hazardous under CLP – see safety data sheet

How to use the glitter powder

The pigment does not dissolve; it is stirred into a carrier: epoxy and casting resin, clear varnish, acrylic paint, glue, wallpaper paste, wax or silicone. As a starting point we recommend approx. 20% pigment relative to the carrier; in opaque carriers such as white wall paint, rather 30–50%. Test the mixture on a small sample first.

• For the glitter effect, work the powder in close to the surface or sprinkle it onto the still tacky layer.
• The more transparent and lighter the carrier, the stronger the glow. Prime dark surfaces in a light colour first.
• In thin, runny resin the pigment sinks: let the resin thicken briefly, then stir it in.
• You can also sprinkle the powder onto adhesive surfaces such as glue, wax or wallpaper paste, or apply it in clear varnish with an airbrush.
• Outdoors, use weather-resistant clear varnishes or epoxy.

Good to know

Because of the glitter content, the powder has a weaker afterglow than pure glow pigment, but it also sparkles during the day. Do not stir into water-based paints without a binder. Store dry and sealed. Afterglow is an aid for orientation and effects, not lighting: it is visible in real darkness, barely under a street lamp. Colours look different in photos depending on the camera and charge. The raw pigment is not a toy. When processing larger quantities, avoid dust and contact with skin and eyes.
