Modding cheap uv/floro paints

here's some paints i used and the cost in $AU
uv acrylic: bargain shop, craft section $3 a tube (acrylic glows best)
uv enamel: hobby shop $2 (not as glowy)
Spray enamel: hardware

All need to be applied to a white base or bare metal surface for max GLO

POWER and the GLORY

 

Nice find... I might have to have a look in some of those bargin shops when I get my new PC.

 

i have something similar but the bottles are much smaller and more expencive. im betting its enamel based because its in glass bottles and i have yet to see acrylic come in any kind of glass container. what do you think?

 

yep, i reckon enamels only come in glass because there oil based and wouldn't like plastic.
i've found that enamels apply smoother to a larger surface than acrylics, but don't glow as well. enamels were used on molex boots and cpu fan. acrylic on heatsink tips and mbd components.

Sorry for the post, I just like making any references to that movie (even if hardly applicable).

Again, Sorry.
