Will the paint's glow be affected if there *is* a clear top-coat over it? How about a pane of glass?

Liz, to be honest the paint did not work at all for me. I was very disappointed.

It's a form of plastic so it probably will peel eventually. You should inquire in your paint store about a primer and the kind of paint that will adhere best.

Any plastic paint (like plasti dip) that resists a little heat would do. Just make sure it's made for plastic.

Im no paint expert but from my experience it wouldnt be very suitable for exposure to the elements. Its made more to patch up things like interior pieces that use chrome plating. which from my research chrome plating is supposed to be exposed to the elements as little as possible. Id go with a similar color your like, but one that doesnt say "plate finish". Just my advice.

The glass is clear. There is a film over the glass that you peel off after you paint.

Yes, this will apply over any already painted surface and give it a matte finsh. Though with the semi-gloss finish you may need a couple sxtra coats.

If the surface is nice and smooth they should do well without destroying the tip. As to the clear coat I'm not sure, we painted ceramic cups which did not require a cover coating. Sorry

No don't use Spot X on the paint job...it scratches easily. It works wonders on glass.

Yes and Yes. The unfinished glass is clear, but an opaquing substance is applied to the underside to create the effect of acid-washed glass--thereby rendering it translucent. Except for the sun, most light sources have a color-cast (defined by degrees on the Kelvin scale). The color you'll see reflected from your desktop will be primarily a result of the lights you use--as well as your carpet and wall colors. But whatever the color, it is not all pronounced--more of a "hint" than a "holla."

The reflective quality of the paint does not really depend upon what is under it. It will reflect the color of the headlights, usually white. So a white background sign with carved recessed numbers painted a dark color and over painted with this product will not pop the numbers. However, consider spraying the entire sign, then painting in the numbers. It is the contrast that is important, not how you get it. Hope this helps. Chris

I used a primer first just becase I was priming the rest of the room. I don't see any problem with just painting over it. It is vinyl and heavy enough paper to not have any problems.

It's a spray paint, I didn't personally try it outside, but I see no reason it wouldn't work. I would consider a clear sealer to apply after the glow in the dark, just to be safe

If the existing paint is glossy or semi-gloss, I would suggest priming or at least scuffing it with steel wool. I would not, however, recommend this paint.

So far it hasn't harmed the paint, but vehicles have different types of paint so I can't speak for its effect on all types of paint. If you overspray on a painted surface just wipe it off before it can do any harm. Of course you can mask the painted area if you are really afraid.

The package says " decals may be used only on exterior glass surface - free of any overlay, tinting, film, or coating." Hope that helps.

I would not apply it over paint. I strongly doubt that it would adhere well and would not be maintainable. I would suggest maintaining the surface with the original paint instead.
