Interesting stuff what would you use it for?

It sure seems as if there's a lot of possibilities for it...
I'd give my helmet a good coating of it; what would YOU do?

Where I live you'd have to spray a 4X8 sheet of plywood with it and strap the plywood to your back to wake up some of the idiots. Only then...

I thought about the helmet but I already have Scotch guard reflective tape on it. I also thought about my boots that would make a good side reflector. Finally my riding jacket sleeves you see some done in the video and again good side and rear reflection.
Here is what scotch guard does. The white is black in daylight and what I have all my black parts of my helmet done with.

I'd spray it on my cat ...so I could find her with a flashlight when she sneaks out at night.

A very good idea IMO. I have always been a proponent of you can't have too many lights. The Life Paint would up the ante. I would also see a use for it on helmets. A lot of my Firstgear already has reflective elements, and the is lit up pretty good OEM wise.

I have added the LED trunk light system, and the lighted bumpskid in the front.

I don't see myself as taking a Life Paint shower to go riding.

Thinking about it a little more front rims would be another place to use it.

If we're talking about the stuff that Volvo are giving away FREE here....it's great!
The only drawback is that it only lasts around ten days....

I wonder whatever happened to the cats that were bred specifically to glow in the dark?

Good thought, I put GloRyders on the wheels. More costly but really cool.

My concern when I read about it was rain. It says that it washes off, so will it wash off in a good rain? That's when I need the reflectivity the most.

They were being used as targets. All gone.

Some of the new data on this water based paint indicates that it may only last a week. There's environmental concerns about the impact of all those paint cans.

I think that stuff is a great idea, i would put on my tires i would also tape off the numbers on my license plate
& spray it on there

[SPECTACUALR SPIDERMAN]

i just looked it up, they say it only lasts for about a week, wonder if it would last longer if i were to put a
clear coat on it or would it mess up the reflectivity of it, o well right now it is only available in the u.k.
