Any of you had any experience with this stuff?

Not with this brand but there are some paints where they use this like house of color.
JimC most likely have used so may know full scoop.
My experience, not from using as never have but what the stuff is, works to a point as it will charge itself and glow at night for 1-4 hours, normal warning were to use as a stripe, not whole car, also tended to last about 6-12 month if car driven daily. But been awhile and things change so JimC can clear this up.
 
yeah i've never used that particular brand but they are all about the same. i used it on my personal bike 15 years ago. the problem with the stuff is that by the time the sun sets and its dark enough to see it, its wore out. its only good if you let it sit out and charge then pull it into a garage and turn the lights off. other than that, its the only time you can tell its doing anything. i never had a problem with uv killing it since it was in barry's super duper uv resistant universal clear..lol. i could see it happening though on a daily driver that sat out baking in the sun day after day. i personally thought it was a complete waste.
 
we use different powders and metal flake all the time, I dont know if I would go full out with it like the site shows, but little touches on tips of true fire with the airbrush would probably be sweet. Like he said though, the uv protection is in the clear, so it bad UV shouldnt much matter as long as you are clearing over it.
 
i got stuck using those florescent colors on some race cars. every one of them turned white .
 
yes florescent colors arent light fast and will fade out in no time. best you can hope for is a year or two with that stuff even with a really good clearcoat. what he has posted above is glow in the dark powder. same stuff they put into kids toys. like i said, you cant even tell its there or you did anything in normal conditions.
