Default Do they make glow-in-the-dark graphics?

hey I was lookin at some graphics 4 my xB and I noticed there isnt any glow in the dark styles. I know there is ghost flames styles which i like too but I was thinking this would look tight too. In the daytime it would like kinda ghost image, then at night it would glow tight. If anybody knows where and if i can do this let me know. thanks!

That pic is of the EL wire, but the tape is adhesive backed. It'd probably be a little too F& F...

Reflective might be a cheaper choice.

I've been talking to A&A Signs, 503 Monroe, SE, Albuquerque (across from Highland HS) on Zuni, SE about reflective graphics. Nick Wilson, the owner, has lots of custom graphic software that custom cuts 1000's of reflective vinyl designs. 255-5009. He seems to do good work.

Hope this helps. Your neighbor in ABQ. :D RPM

House Of Kolor actually makes a phosphorescent paint. They call the line Kosmic-Glo. these paints "soak" up the light and then Glow in the dark. Cool stuff.
