This GLO-X 300g white base coat was formulated to reflect and return light into your glow layer so the photoluminescent pigments absorb more energy and emit a stronger, longer-lasting glow in complete darkness. It bonds to common materials, dries quickly, and serves as the recommended first step in a professional three-stage glow system: prepare, prime, then finish with your chosen GLO-X glow colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does a white undercoat improve glow intensity?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA white base reflects ambient and charging light back through the glow layer, increasing the amount of light the glow pigments can absorb. More absorbed light equals a brighter, longer-lasting emission when lights go out. Using this base coat reduces patchiness and helps the final glow appear even across the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReflects more light than dark substrates, increasing charge efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduces mottling for a uniform glow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorks with all GLO-X glow colours to maximize brightness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich surfaces will this acrylic primer stick to?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGLO-X base coat is a professional acrylic formulation that adheres well to many prepared surfaces. For best results, clean and lightly sand non-porous areas so the primer can bond evenly. It creates a smooth, receptive layer for subsequent glow spray coats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for timber, metal, plastic, concrete and masonry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePrepares hobby items like fishing lures, helmets, and skateboards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse on signs, safety equipment, and decorative or industrial projects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I apply GLO-X base coat for optimal results?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApplication is simple and designed for consistent professional outcomes. Apply multiple thin coats rather than one heavy coat to avoid runs and ensure an even reflective layer. Allow each coat to dry before re-coating and then top with your chosen GLO-X glow spray once the primer is fully dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePrepare surface: clean, degrease, and sand if needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApply 2–3 thin coats of GLO-X White Base Coat, allowing drying between coats\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFinish with GLO-X Glow Spray Paint for maximum luminance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long until the glow performs and how is it recharged?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlow performance depends on layer thickness and how much charging light the pigments receive. After application, allow the glow coat to be fully charged by bright light; stronger and longer charging increases luminance. Test in total darkness to verify the glow level and add extra glow coats if needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThicker glow layers typically store more light energy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCharge with strong light sources (sunlight or bright artificial light)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTest between coats in darkness and adjust layers as required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this product for? GLO-X White Base Coat Spray is aimed at professionals and hobbyists who demand the brightest possible glow from photoluminescent paints.
