Your Mold GLOE Classic glow-in-the-dark powder paint
Code: YM/7111Related products
Product detailed description
Your Mold GLOE Classic is a phosphorescent polyester powder paint for lead jig heads, pilkers and fishing weights. Its pigment stores light during exposure and gradually emits it afterwards, including in darkness.
Choose 80 g or 1000 g. Both sizes contain the same material. You are buying powder; the head and hook are shown only as an application example.
Afterglow differs from NEON-UV fluorescence. Following light exposure, GLOE can emit stored light without continued illumination. Its glow gradually fades and needs recharging. The manufacturer recommends a white background for the glow; no fixed glow time or visibility at a particular depth is promised.
We recommend Your Mold white powder paint beneath GLOE. Application without it is possible, but a dark background can substantially reduce the visible glow. The main photograph shows the daylight appearance, not measured afterglow intensity.
Application procedure
- Clean, degrease and completely dry the casting. Remove burrs and oxidation.
- Fluff the powder; use gentle airflow in a fluidising cup. Keep different powders in separate containers.
- Heat the lead section evenly in a dedicated electric workshop oven or with a heat gun, following the coating instructions and allowing for casting size.
- When using a white base, briefly dip the hot head into white powder and immediately afterwards into GLOE. Otherwise dip directly into GLOE. Gently tap off excess.
- Keep the film thin and attachment eyes clear. Allow it to flow and complete curing according to the chosen system instructions; actual metal temperature and time matter.
- Allow to cool naturally, then check adhesion, appearance and passages. Test one part before coating a batch.
Safety when coating lead castings
- Use effective ventilation, avoid breathing dust and follow the coating safety sheet. Wear appropriate eye, hand and respiratory protection.
- Handle hot parts with suitable tools over a heat-resistant surface. Keep the workshop oven and equipment separate from food preparation.
- Avoid overheating hooks. Fit plastic inserts and glued eyes after cooling; keep eyes and passages clear.
- Do not eat, drink or smoke when handling lead. Clean up dust and wash your hands afterwards. These instructions concern coating finished castings; pouring molten metal requires separate precautions.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What is included?
One GLOE Classic pack in the selected 80 g or 1000 g size. The pictured head, hook and coating equipment are not included.
Does the material change with pack size?
No. Both pack sizes contain the same GLOE Classic material; only the quantity changes.
Does GLOE glow without charging?
It must first absorb light. Afterwards it produces an afterglow which gradually fades. It is not a permanent light source.
Is this the NEON-UV range?
No. GLOE is phosphorescent glow-in-the-dark paint. NEON-UV fluorescence is a different light effect.
Can I use the same baking schedule for every powder?
No. Follow the label and technical sheet for the specific coating. Similar colour or identical pack size does not establish the same curing schedule.
Does the photo show the actual pack?
It is a digitally edited illustration of the daylight appearance of powder and coating. It is not a measurement of afterglow or fish vision.
