When activated with a suitable dopant (Europium) it then takes on a different structure and becomes like a Phosphorescence emitting its glow. It now requires UV in the higher spectrum to charge the crystals and make them GLOW. UV Ultra Violet light is the electromagnetic radiation from Sunlight with a wavelength shorter than white light. In summer the pigment powder supercharges on the emitting UV rays from sunlight and makes the pigment REALLY POP ! however in the winter months when there is limited UV in the sun′s rays then it is harder to charge most pigments. This is NOT the case for our New 5th Generation Glow in the Dark pigment, these require LESS UV and will charge with incandescent and LED Cre lighting more efficiently. We use UV Black lights to help charge certain pigments and lower generation powders in the winter months. These are specially designed BLACK LIGHTS you can purchase from stores. LED purple lights do work however their wavelength falls slightly short. Best lighting is a woods bulb; however incandescent lights and strip bulbs can work Why use GlomaniaUSA Pigment: Glow in the Dark Pigment Powder Standard 200-400um Latest 5th Generation Pigment – Long Glow time 14 ­ 18 hrs These pigments are daytime invisible, meaning they are white during the day & glow their individual colors in the dark.
