will exposing the paint under direct sunlight for a full day extend the glow time?

I found that putting it out in the sun (after its been printed of course) made the glow significantly brighter. As far as glow time I can say for sure but I would assume it would make it glow longer

Actually, after wearing it for a couple of days, I was wrong. It shows up excellent in direct sun. In lower light, you need to adjust the aspect, but in direct sun it almost glows.

No. I do not think so. The effects of the daylight as well as the (harsh) weather conditions will take its toll on the painting.Sincerely.

Im sure. Ive found over the years that less works best. I used to use all the bells and whistles and found that, with lights of this quality, 6 hours is good...no co2,no chemicals, tho a good substrate is always recommended.

to make it glow in the dark, you just need to expose the putty to any light for about 5 minutes. If you have UV light however, it will start to glow instantly and have a more intense glow. For changing color putty, you just need body heat. If your hands are cold, rubbing your hands together quickly for 1 minute, or placing it under your arm and against your body.

not very easily but,yes,it will not last for a whole day,you will have to reapply again

In order for the foresight t o glow it needs to be exposed to daylight, other wise it doesn't function properly. Leave the hood off. Or drill a hole in it.

i would suggest leaving Waka-waka in full sun for at least 3 hours. Then see if dimming improves.

With a coat of primer, but a half ounce won't cover much. It will glow for about an hour and taper down over night.

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer my question. My concern was that in bright daylight I would not be able to pick up the front sight once painted. I have a tritium insert so I have no problem under dark conditions or even at night.

depends on day with over cast yes but not as visible as inside of course.... with complete sun light not visible you may have to get a target card to see it... I usually have to use my actual rotating transit and detector for out side because the dw089k's beam is hard to see in sunlight even though it has the brightest beam I have seen in its class

yes, however it will only cause the top half of the picture to glow. It still looks amazing.

Yes, the best results will be achieved in a location where the rising and setting sun has full exposure to the transformer if you want the dusk to dawn effect.

Seems like it will last all night if you have it in full sunlight during the day. Mine gets less than 6 hours during the day and is still on, though it be dim at 4am.

Hi! My own experience: bought the duck 2 days ago. I have a screen-enclosed pool like you do. Exposed the animal 5-6 hours in full light/sun exposure yesterday. The LED light turned on at dusk, as expected. Very nice. Am ordering a second unit today! I really don't see why the screen would prevent the sun to activate the solar cells, it does not prevent my wife to get a beautiful suntan... Nothing to do with the screen, provided you have direct sunlight. Unless you have big trees or some other reason preventing the sun to go through. Enjoy it, or return it to Amazon, if you're not happy! Hi! My own experience: bought the duck 2 days ago. I have a screen-enclosed pool like you do.

Starting at dark, we noticed a low glow until we went to bed so how long after that I don't know. I know at least two hours then after that, don't know! :) You won't be covering much with one package of this. So far we have gotten two & will be adding to it as we can.
