HOKPaint.com KOSMIC-GLO® Phosphorescent Glow-In-The-Dark Powders

GENERAL INFORMATION

Depending on use and sun exposure, light fastness on some colors will be limited.
The glow effect continues even if the color fades.
The KG-00 is the primary color and will provide the best glow and color retention when applied over a white base.
Use KG-01 through KG-07 with discretion - even though the color may change with time and exposure, the Glow-in-the-Dark feature remains for a long time.
Kosmic-Glo® is provided in 4 oz. jars of dry powder. (Bulk prices available on request.)

IMPORTANT NOTE:

DANGER - DO NOT MIX KOSMIC-GLO® WITH ACID OR WATER! Kosmic-Glo® is not recommended for overall refinishing.

1. BASE COAT

Maximum glow occurs when Kosmic-Glo® is applied over a white base. We recommend using our SHIMRIN® BC-26 White as a base or KO-SEAL II KS-10 or KS 210. Other colors/bases (such as Pearls, Kandys, Neons, Solid Kolors, etc.) may be used for unusual effects, but glow time will be less.

2. MIXING KOSMIC-GLO®

Add 4 to 6 oz. of Kosmic-Glo® dry powder to 1 pint of ready to spray clear.
Mix thoroughly.
Mix only when ready to use.
Stir between coats as setting occurs quickly.
Spray immediately after mixing as this product may not store well when mixed.

NOTE: An agitator cup can help keep product mixed during spraying.

For Urethane Finishes:

Our SG-100 intercoat Clear works well for mixing the Kosmic-Glo* pigment. Topcoat with our UC-1 Kosmic Klear, UC-35 Kosmic Klear, UFC-1 Polyurethane Flo-Klear, UFC-19 Komply Klear or UFC-35 Flo-Klear.

For Lacquer Finishes:

Mix the Kosmic-Glo@pigment with our C-1 Lacquer Clear and then topcoat with either our C-1 Lacquer Clear or SC-1 Sunscreen Clear.

3. APPLYING KOSMIC-GLO®

Apply 3 coats using a 75% pattern overlap when spraying.
Allow plenty of flash time between coats.
Clear with a compatible clear.
For best glow time, apply over a white base.

4. GLOW TIME

Maximum excitation for Kosmic-Glo® is UV light (both long and short), daylight and artificial light (tungsten and fluorescent lamps). Sodium vapor or I.R. light sources are unsuitable.

Glow time will vary based on application, base color and light exposure. Maximum glow time is 15 to 45 minutes, based on the intensity of the excitation energy.
