A brief overview

Using glow in the dark paint is a wonderful opportunity to create a unique wall style. Use special brushes or pencils to add details and fill the drawing with the paint. This kind of paint is perfect not only for walls but other décor elements. For instance, most manufacturers allow painting wood, metal, plaster, ceramic objects, etc. To verify you’ve picked the right formula, look at the instructions on the back.

What’s more, one of the advantages of such paint is that you can remove it just as easily. Just use some warm soapy water and clean the objects from the paint and its glowing effect. On the other hand, it also depends on the formula you’ve picked.

Using glow in the dark paint can become a bonding project since you can let your kids participate as well.

How to use glow in the dark paint?

First of all, you need to start by purchasing the needed volume of paint. It’s widely available in stores and online. The popularity of such products offers all sorts of shades, too.

Before you start the application, you should realize that the paint won’t be as bright on the wall as it is in the jar. That’s why pick accordingly and be ready to apply several layers.

If you do wall decoration, you should probably start with a simple pencil. Draw the image you want. Now use the paint and the brush to cover the shapes and make it colorful and beautiful. One of the ways to make the wall pretty both for daylight and night is to use regular paint first. The wall will become a mural and bring kids’ favorite characters or any other interesting pictures. Then you can decide which way you want them to glow and use glow in the dark paint.

In 2020, the most popular way to add some glow to the wall using this method is to draw the shadows. This way, the objects won’t glow themselves but will be surrounded by a pretty glowing backlight.

A person can achieve various effects that depend only on their imagination. Express yourself and inspire your kids, letting your imagination free.

Additional Ideas

Another fun idea is to incorporate glow in the dark paint into functional items around the room. You can add glowing outlines to furniture edges, lamps, or even the door frame. This not only creates a magical atmosphere but also makes it easier for kids to find things in the dark. Plus, this glowing effect can be a great way to guide children to their beds or play areas without needing a nightlight. The possibilities are endless when it comes to combining practicality and aesthetics with glow in the dark paint.

If you’re looking to take this trend to the next level, consider creating a whole glowing universe on your walls. By combining glow in the dark paint with stencils or custom designs, you can make galaxies, stars, or even underwater scenes that light up at night. Whether you want a subtle glow or a more dramatic effect, this technique allows you to design a room that’s both vibrant and serene, capturing your child’s imagination while enhancing the ambiance of the space.

Important Considerations

Keep in mind that fluorescent paints can come in different formulas. While some are also suitable for skin, others were developed for specific surfaces only. Check the instructions beforehand.

It’s also better to use some protection when applying the paint that can’t be used on people. Get some gloves and make sure to air the room properly. Regardless of how safe it is, it’s still chemicals.
