Wonder if there's laws against that...
Honestly it sounds very childish; albeit very interesting and unique. I'd love to see the results.

Re: anyone try this before (doubt it)
i think that adds to the cool factor, say someone sees it sitting in the driveway and there like "**** is that thing nuclear" 
actully come to think of it, it wouldn't be anywhere near that bright of a glow......just enough so that it'd be noticed at night and still look cool, while remaining road legal

Re: anyone try this before (doubt it)
according to there site if it sat in the sun all day, it could glow all night......and the effect could last for ten years, so it'd last about as long as a normal paint job on a daily driver

Re: anyone try this before (doubt it)
Growing up my dad was friends with the guy who started this glow in the dark paint. some say he invinted it but never had it patent and so on. first car i ever saw was a old 40's chevy. if i can bring up the picture from the dead i will. its completly painted in yellow and in pitch black you could read a newspaper standing next to it.

Re: anyone try this before (doubt it)
Can you imagine the bench racing ..........
Racer 1: So what for power are you running
Racer 2: Its a Mr Fusion ..... It usually glows for 3 days after I drive it. It sure is fast though.
On a slightly more serious note: Stripe or flames might be ok I can't imagine a whole car ........... neighbors might think you are possessed.

Re: anyone try this before (doubt it)
I remember back when I was 7 or 8 I had a bunch of glow in the dark toys that I'd play with......but it wasn't that that cool once I got older...
Glow in the dark is for things like watches and toys....not cars IMO.

You'd look like a super tool driving around in that. It would be worse than what the ricers do to their crap boxes.
