PRELIMINARY REVIEW...LOOKING GOOD SO FAR
LATEST UPDATE: ok...this is an ongoing series of updates, which are positive. well, since my last update i found several coats of this on a spot on my watch bezel was not optimal. i have a high impact ceramic bezel which does not allow anything to stick to it. while the glow-on did a pretty good job, while i was trying to pull an excess spot of it off, i saw it all would come off the bezel, so i removed it and rethought what to do. SO i did thought to do what was done by glow-on on the top of their bottle, just put a big fat drop (needs NOT to be thinned out for this, but rather thick) ONTO the bezel. not paint it on, just load it on the stir stick provided and let a fat drop drip onto the bezel, the way glow-on did to put a huge sample drop on their bottle top. also, i noticed, this is how gun owners use it, put a huge thick drop on the tip of the gun as a thick strongly glowing dot. i have included a picture of how this went for me, and it likely the best solution. with my ceramic bezel, this will probably not be impervious to hard knocks or scrapes against something, but i try not to do that anyway and it will likely adhere as well as actual lume 'pips' or dots that they actually put on rolexes, breitlings, etc, which are notorious for falling off when hit since they are raised. but being raised, and thick with volume is what gives the dot it's glow capacity. so my painting it on in several coats is less effective than just one big drop. in the pic it looks virtually as if the watch manufacturer put it on, which i like. it looks very similar to most watch 'pips'. it will come off without harming the ceramic if i want, and if it comes off like the pips on rolexes etc, i can reapply, whereas rolex/breitling pips are very hard to purchase and usually require buying the entire bezel...hundreds of dollars. so this turned out to be a good solution for my needs, and likely an excellent solution for most needs as mine were pretty specific. note, this would work fine under water as well, but again would probably come off if the watch was banged or scraped on something hard, which is likely your least concern if you are slamming your watch against stuff. do see the picture, it was taken using this drop method. it is not to show the brightness, but rather the manner i used to apply it and how that looks...which is very good.UPDATE: just put the second coat on my watch bezel...looks brighter, more glow, smoother (it's pretty much just a dot in a triangular engraving)...and it looks more even and like an inlay. i gave it the fifth star. will likely put on 1 more coat.i just used this for the first time and plan to put another coat on before following up, but so far this is looking excellent.my project is the zero marker on a dive watch movable bezel. it is sadly an all ceramic beautiful dive watch that has NO lume on the movable bezel, so there is no visibility in the dark, and even in normal to low light. luckily it does have engraved or sunken numerals and a triangle at the zero spot, so the possibility of putting paint into these engraved spots existed. being super hard ceramic, they are not really engraved, but molded into the ceramic.so, after putting a bit (2 drops) of distilled H20 into the glow-on, to make sure it didn't dry up, i masked off the very small sunken triangle on my watch bezel, and painted a coat into it. the paint will first off dry a bit rough and uneven, but after waiting the 24-48 recommended hours it seems to contract and tighten. so it flattened into the sunken triangle. the masking tape was slightly uneven since the triangle was so small, so while still not fully dried i used a wooden toothpick to carefully rub off the uneven paint on the shiny ceramic bezel, which was not hard since it is very impermeable. the engraved triangle had a rough surface on the inside, so hopefully the paint will continue to adhere to that. i cleaned it with nail polish remover before painting.as the paint flattened into the triangle, and i had rubbed off excess on the sides of the area, it is working in a preliminary fashion. the bezel is black, and it is really needed to do several coats for this product, but even with that i can see this first thin coat in the dark, and much better in low light situations. it is not yet as bright as the actual lumed hands, but with another single coat at least, it should significantly improve.since i am already impressed with the glow of this stuff with even a thin first coat, my only concerns are the surface finish of it when done, and the durability. i am hopeful on both those counts. when you get the stuff there is a dot of it on the top of the bottle, and it is hard, tight, smooth, and looks very cosmetically attractive, like something you will not mind having on a gun, dive watch, or other surface. i'm sure that was applied by machine, but already it looks like this stuff will flatten to a nice hard surface as it fully dries. as for its adherence to this super hard ceramic, since the area it sticks to had a texture, i am also hopeful.as for the dot on the bottle top, i tried with a sharp object to see how durable it was and it did not give at all, which is not to say if i took a pick and hammer it wouldn't. but it seem very durable from that sample drop.hope this helps...i read many reviews and this stuff seemed the best for durability on a dive watch or gun/etc, as well as for glow. i will update after 1-2 more coats.

Easy to apply
Works just as described. Used it on my iron sights for older CZ75. Easy to apply. I let it dry for a full 24 hours and then applied a second coat. Waited another 24 hours and then sealed it with light coat of clear nail polish. Bright enough to see the sights, not so bright it messes with your night vision.

Awesome paint! Thanks guys
Used on kns ak aperture sight and rear peep. Only wanted paint to cover the KNS brass sight which flashed in sunlight. Dull paint might as well glow too! Very happy! Plenty of paint to do multiple sights and test different designs! Still a visible at 4am with adjusted "night eyes". Would buy again but probably won't need to.

Works Great
Works great. It only needs a charge from an LED flashlight for a couple seconds and then it it bright as can be. It does not stay bright for as long as I thought it would, based off the description, but it is bright and lasts for a good 15 20 minutes before getting significantly dimmer. I bought it for DIY night sights, so it works perfectly for my need. I did end up buying the green one as well, because it has a much stronger glow. Overall it is a great product.

Conflicted
Seller is great, instant customer service, even the paint is very bright, however it only last a few minutes after being in direct light for up to an hour (sun,led flashlight, blacklight) and the black light is the only one that last more than 5 mins (7-10ish) so idk seems kinda misleading.

Very thick, didn't work well a guitar neck dot markers
I had reqs a truck this could be used to create dot markers on the top of the neck of a guitar or bass, but this applies thick and gloopy is not really suitable for that application.
