I doubt it. Its not that bright and it is not a light of any sort. We will see I definitely could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time.

Its about $100 per pound. I have yet to find out what they recomend to add per quarte of clear it is an additive. You would add the stuff to your first clear coat and then do one or two over it to be able to wet sand it and not remove the eveness.

neither is street glow, but that's illegal

what matters is that it's a distraction and its not white(you cant be driving down the road with all the crazy colors glowing down the highway) because people will stop what they are doing to look and either they or someone else is going to end up ramming into something:laugh:

in a perfect world with perfect drivers this might be ok, but it will never happen

^^ street glow is lighting. Have you ever seen anything glow in the dark. Its not that bright anyways, probably barely noticeable. Neon kits are very visable.

As of right now, its NOT illegal.....even here in VA where everything is illegal.

The only reason its not is the fact that the manufacturer claimed that the glow on the vehicle would make your car more noticable at nighttime, kind of like DTRL in the daytime...and hopefully make it less likely to be involved in an accident considering you will be able to see it better at nighttime.

As Inkedrunner said, it will make it glow, but nothing like neon lights.

Considering I will be painting my car in the next few months with this stuff I will let everybody know what it looks like, how bright, and if I get bothered for having it.

It will be cool if like in the middle of the night the glow gets dim then I go thru a tunnel and pop out the other side glowing. lol

well sure, but how long has it been out? Its only a matter of time

doesnt really matter to how bright it is either, a distraction is a distraction
