Visible and Blacklight Applications: The Most Powerful Luminescence Available. Daylight to blacklight super saturated pigmentation. Recommended 365nm UV "Blacklight" source. We recommend painting under UV Blacklight source and proper UV application techniques are used to ensure the creation and development of expected fluorescent visual effects.
Surface Preparation: All surfaces to be painted must be entirely free of dust, dirt, oil, grease and other contaminants. Properly prime the clean, dry surface with a "white" acrylic, water base primer and allow the primer to dry. Always ensure adequate ventilation when painting. Lower temperatures and higher humidity will lengthen the dry and cure times of primers and paints.
Note : If a "whiter" base coat is desired, paint over the primer coat with a Flat Latex White Paint or a Matte, White Acrylic
Application Conditions:Keep away from direct sunlight as the fluorescent pigments will fade in approximately three months or less, when exposed to sunlight. Recommended application temperature should not be below 54 degrees F or above 86 Degrees F.
Application:The DarkFX Fluorescent Pigments can be brushed, rolled, or sprayed onto any paintable, properly primed, interior surface. High concentrations of color allow the DarkFX Fluorescent Pigments to be blended and diluted using distilled water. Do not over diluting, over diluting will decrease adhersion.
Note : When spraying, use a properly-fitted, NIOSH approved respirator per the manufacturers instructions.
Mixing and Tinting:Arcylic paints can be used to deepen or lighten the color as well as modify consistency. Always test modified paint under daylight and blacklight conditions before applying.
Dry Times:DarkFX UV Paints dry-to-touch is approximately 30 minutes at 70 degrees F and 50% relative humidity. Recoat wait time should be approximately 1 hour at 70 degrees F and 50% RH.
Note: Lower temperature and/or higher humidity will lengthen the dry and cure times. Higher temperatures and/or lower humidity will speed up the dry and cure times
Coverage:One Gallon/3.78 liters will cover approximately 250 to 300 square feet/23 to 27 square meters. Approximately 1.5 mils dry film thickness per coat. A Minimum of 3 mils dry film thickness is required for full color development and saturation.
Note: Fluorescent pigmented coatings are translucent and do not exhibit the same "hiding" characteristics as traditional paints.
Clean Up:Clean brushes, rollers, tools, and all other equipment with soap and warm water immediately after use. Do not reuse containers and properly dispose of empty containers.
Handling & Storage:Close containers tightly when not in use. Store paint in a cool, dry place, and keep away from direct sunlight. Protect from freezing. If paint becomes frozen, allow the paint to completely thaw and come to room temperature, then mix thoroughly before use.
Disposal:Dispose of unused or unwanted products in accordance with local laws regulating water-based coatings.
Healthy and Safety:Use in a well ventilated area. Avoid contact with eyes. Wash hand thoroughly with soap and warm water after use. Do not take internally. When spraying or sanding, use a properly-fitting NOISH approved respirator per the manufacturers instructions. Warning! If you scrape, sand, or remove OLD paint, you may release lead dust. Lead is toxic. EXPOSURE TO LEAD DUST CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ILLNESS, SUCH AS BRAIN DAMAGE, ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a NOISE-approved respirator to control lead exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA vacuum and a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to protect yourself and your family by contracting the National Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to www.epa.gov/lead. Antari Dark FX Acrylic paints are free from lead.
