What is the brightest glow powder currently in the market?

Pete's Luminous Creations - Glow in the Dark FAQ
The brightest glow powder in the market currently is the SLG-1. However, we can produce glow pigments that are brighter than this by making the particle size larger. Particle size does affect the brightness and length of glow. Unfortunately, larger particle size pigments cannot be used for screen printing, spray painting and many other application methods. It can only be used for brush painting. This is why we do keep stock for this. See similar questions...

A former science teacher said that cockroaches glow under black light. Are they flourescent?

I have never seen a cockroach glow under black light however other pests in more tropical or desert regions, the scorpions, do glow fluorescently. Scorpions are well known for this behavior. Their generally soft cuticle has fluorescent compounds. There is a famous picture on the cover of Science of a fluorescent scorpion. I once took a walk in the evening desert outside Albuquerque NM with a portable black light. See similar questions...

How do glow light products work?

Wikked Vibes - Chemical glow in the dark products frequently...
There are four components to most light sticks. The first is the plastic outer casing which holds everything inside. The second is the fluid that you can see moving around in the light stick. The third is the glass tube which floats freely in the fluid. The fourth is the fluid contained inside the glass tube. To make a glow stick 'glow', you only need to bend the outer plastic casing to make the inner glass tube broken. See similar questions...

Are the chemical glow light products safe?

Wikked Vibes - Chemical glow in the dark products frequently...
Yes. All our chemical glow light sticks and products come in a sealed plastic case. Even if the outer casing of the glow stick is somehow punctured or broken open, the chemical contents are non-toxic and non-flammable. But please never contact the liquid with eyes or ingesting the fluid because irritation will result. There is also the possibility of an allergic reaction. Please keep in mind that under normal use you will never come into contact with the fluid inside the glow light stick. See similar questions...
