These colors are formulated using specialized dyes that have the ability to capture light and then re-emit it, resulting in a luminescent effect. This process is scientifically termed as ‘fluorescence,’ where the dye absorbs photons and subsequently releases the energy in the form of visible light. This emitted light enhances the brightness of the color, making it stand out when compared to non-fluorescent colors exposed to the same light conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, it’s important to note that fluorescent colors, such as Wicked Fluorescent Colors, lack lightfastness. Over time, the fluorescent effect weakens as the dye’s energy depletes with each excitation cycle. Prolonged exposure to direct light will eventually cause the color to fade.\u003cbr\u003eTo help hide eventual loss of color, color-match Fluorescent Colors with a base color, for example Fluorescent Red over AutoBorne Sealer Red, so the loss of fluorescent color is not as noticeable as it would be if it were applied over a white base.\u003cbr\u003eAll fluorescent colors will eventually fade from exposure to direct light. The longevity of the fluorescent color will be affected by how many coats are applied, so it’s always a good idea to add an extra coat or two of a fluorescent color if it’s intended to have exposure to direct light. For optimum longevity to direct light exposure, such as an outdoor mural, apply Wicked Fluorescent Colors over a color-keyed base color of AutoBorne Sealer, and apply Fluorescent Colors in multiple coats, achieving full saturation of the color.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWicked Fluorescent Colors can be sprayed with any airbrush tip-size with minimal thinning with 4011 Reducer.
