Product Description
Photoluminescent Paint is a specific variety of coating that travels through reflecting normal light emitted during darkness. The technology is safe, and efficient and can provide solutions for the improvement of safety, appearance, and utilization of spaces in diverse venues. This kind of paint can be used in designing escape routes, and safety signages and enhance illumination during emergencies such as power failures. The photoluminescent technology allows you to increase the safety level of your environment without boosting energy use at the same time. This paint is economical for the following reasons; it will not harm the environment, is very durable, and will not wear off fast. Photoluminescent Paint if used on walls, edges of stairs, passages, or signs, will exhibit standard glow values after having been exposed to natural or artificial light. Commercial buildings, factories, car parks, and buildings as well as residential areas and other sectors are areas of application of this system. Photoluminescent paint applies easily on various surfaces and once professionally applied, has the capacity to last for many years.
FAQs:
Q: What is photoluminescent paint used for?
A: Photoluminescent paint application is mainly for safety signages, evacuation routes, and inspiring artwork for visibility at night.
Q: How long does photoluminescent paint glow?
A: The glow lasts for 6-12 hours depending on the type of paint, charging time of the lighter, etc.
Q: Can photoluminescent paint be applied to any surface?
A: Yes, it can be used on most surfaces where fitting is required such as metal concrete wood, and plastic as long as the surface is well prepared beforehand.
Superior Afterglow PerformanceOur photoluminescent paint utilizes rare earth aluminate pigments activated by europium and dysprosium, producing high luminance and a long-lasting afterglow. Once fully charged under light, surfaces remain illuminated in darkness for up to 12 hours, making it ideal for safety and emergency applications.
Safety and Environmental ComplianceFormulated to be non-toxic, lead free, and low in VOCs, the paint complies with RoHS and EN71-3 standards. Its flame retardant properties and neutral pH contribute to both environmental safety and high reliability in sensitive areas like escape routes, schools, and hospitals.
Versatile Application MethodsDesigned for easy application on concrete, metal, wood, and plastic surfaces, this paint can be applied by brush, roller, or spray. Its ready-to-use liquid form and customizable dilution ratios simplify the process for professionals and DIY users alike, delivering a smooth, matt or semi-gloss finish.
FAQs of Photoluminescent Paint:
Q: How does photoluminescent paint work to provide glow in the dark?
A: The paint contains rare earth aluminate pigments, activated by europium and dysprosium, which absorb light energy from daylight, fluorescent, or UV sources and release it gradually in darkness, ensuring visibility for 812 hours after a full charge.
Q: What surfaces can this paint be applied to, and how is it used?
A: Photoluminescent paint is compatible with metal, concrete, wood, and plastic surfaces. It is applied by brush, roller, or spray. For optimal results, use suitable primer, ensure surface temperatures are between 10-40C, and maintain a wet film thickness of 80100 microns.
Q: When is the best time to recoat or touch up the painted surface?
A: Recoating can be done 24 hours after the initial application at 25C. It becomes touch-dry within 30 minutes and reaches full cure in 24 hours, enabling timely maintenance or touch-ups as required.
Q: Where is photoluminescent paint most beneficial?
A: It is particularly useful for safety signage, emergency path marking, staircases, exits, and decorative applications in buildings, factories, schools, and public spaces where visibility during power outages or darkness is critical.
Q: What maintenance does this paint require after application?
A: Maintenance is minimal, usually limited to regular dusting and gentle cleaning to keep the surface free from dirt or debris, ensuring optimal afterglow performance without compromising the paints properties.
Q: What are the environmental and safety benefits of using this paint?
A: The paint is non-toxic, contains low VOCs, is lead free, and complies with RoHS and EN71-3 standards. Its flame retardant and UV-resistant nature make it a safer and longer-lasting choice for diverse environments.
Q: What is the process for storing photoluminescent paint effectively?
A: Store the paint tightly sealed in a cool, dry, and dark place to maximize its shelf life, which ranges from 12 to 24 months. Suitable packaging includes tin, plastic containers, and sealed buckets.
