Amazing glow flames on my car Submitted by: David Stettler Materials Required: 4oz of green glow in the dark paint ½ oz blue glow in the dark paint ½ oz purple glow in the dark paint ½ oz protective sealer 1 roll of blue tape Newspaper Permanent marker Procedure: First I decided on what flame pattern that I wanted. I measured the hood of the car, where the paint would cover and it was 5’x2’. Next I drew a small patter that was 8”x10” on a piece of paper and projected it using a projector so that it would be 5’x2’. I traced the new design and cut it out. Next I taped that pattern loosely onto the car in order to see where I needed to put the tape on the car. Next I traced the pattern onto the tape that I had just put on the car. I then used a razor blade to cut the pattern in the tape. Be careful to not push so had as to cut into the paint on the car. Next I taped up the rest of the car so that no overspray would get where I didn’t want it to. I then put on 3 layers of green paint (3oz). Then I outlined the green in blue paint only on half of the flame. I put on 2 coats (1/2 oz). I then put on the purple paint that covered the top half of the flame (1/2 oz). I used the remaining green paint (1 oz) to blend the blue and purple colors as well as used it for touch up painting. I then removed the tape and overlapped a sealant coat of paint (1/2 oz). That is some of the sealant coat was on the unpainted areas. I did this to insure that the paint was sealed very well. This whole project took me 4 days. One day to tape and put on green coat, one day to put on the blue and purple coats, one day to blend the colors and let all of the paint dry, and one day to seal the car. The reason that it took so long is because I painted at night in order to see exactly were the paint was going on. In the day light the car slightly glow a dull green and purple and the blue is transparent. Ready Set Glo's Comments: The paint was thick that it was almost impossible to spray with a light weight airbrush. I could spray the paint if I diluted the paint 50% with water, but the glow effect was severely reduced Click here to view photo submitted by David Stettler
