Pierre,
What does it do if you print the BLC over a color? Does it glow the color its over? I have a client that does Cosmic Bingo and they want something cool like that. Let me know the different things you can do with it? Thanks in advanced.

Hey Guys!
I am not sure if this was clarified, but thought I would put my two cents in.
Phosphorescent glows in the dark after being charged by UV light. Wilflex has three offerings. Phosphorescent, Kosmic Glo and Ultra Kosmic Glo (or something close to that). As they go up in level and glow strength they go up in price. They will not glow bright under black light.
Most Flourescent inks will flouresce (spelling) or glow under black lights. However, not all of them will. They will glow the color that they are. Just verify with the ink companies tech services if the color you are printing will flouresce. Like Union; Wilflex has a product that is a clear that glows under black light, but is clear and cannot be seen in regular light. IT is called luna clear and can be printed directy on garments or on an underbase.
Happy Friday!

slightly off topic, but Erin could you tell us what are we supposed to use to dilute the glow in the dark ink? I recently purchased some of the QCM's super concentrated stuff ($120 for a quart!) and wanted to reduce it a little. Should we use reducer or expander to make more ink?

Ok so the BLC I can print a white underbase and the BLC on top on black tees...sounds like a winner!
