Glow in the dark product brightness

How bright are glow in the dark products like glow paint and glow powder?

These are some of the common questions we face. Brightness of any product, whether it is glow powder, a light stick, or even a light diode is measured in mcd/m2.

However, using this to rate the brightness of glow powder is a little misleading because the brightness of glow powder can descend quite quickly as shown in the graph below.

Instead of mcd/m2, we prefer to state the number of hours our products can glow as that is more practical when dealing with glow in the dark products and it is also easily understood among our customers.

The brightest glow in the dark powder in the market is still rated below 10,000mcd/m2. If others claim to have powders brighter than this, order a pack from them and run your own tests, with our brightest powder. If theirs is truly brighter, return our pack to us and we would give you a full refund (shipping charges included). To order a sample of our brightest glow powder, send us an email.

However, before you order anything from other companies, be sure to check their Return Policy. Some companies do not entertain returns or offer any refunds on goods sold.

It is quite sad that these companies resort to such tatics to deceive innocent people. This is why we always prefer to grade our products by the number of hours it glows and not some mcd/m2 rating because it can be easily manipulated to deceive and normal customers do not have any way of testing.
