Important! Instructions and Tips for UV Dye

Methods and uses listed here are provided as recommended starting points. Be sure to experiment to ensure the product will work for your intended usage. Other methods and uses are possible, feel free to experiment! An instructions and tips sheet will be included with every order.

  • Create Glowing Bottles: Simply add 1 bottle of the concentrated dye to about 1 liter of water in a clear bottle. Often used as bar or party decorations to fill decorative bottles, such as a favorite brand of liquor or an antique glass bottle with a unique design.

  • Painting – Watercolor / Ink Style: Brush or splatter onto white paper for amazing effects! Do not add water. One bottle / color is enough for a number of paintings depending on your usage. Paper must be white.

  • Painting – Acrylic Style: This product is a liquid dye, so to paint on hard or non-absorbent surfaces, it must first be mixed with a clear drying acrylic medium such as “acrylic gloss medium” (not included.) Once mixed with the clear acrylic medium, apply onto a white surface such as a primed canvas. Multiple layers may be required. For easiest painting results we recommend painting in a watercolor style as mentioned above. Do not add water. Surface must be white.

  • Fabric Dyeing: IMPORTANT! Please read thoroughly:
    • We suggest starting with thin, white, absorbent pieces of smaller fabric.
    • Important: The blue and purple colors may not be very noticeable on fabric due to other chemicals present in some white fabric. We recommend our Alien Green color (generally the brightest) to start.
    • Under regular light, with no blacklight on, dyed fabric will usually appear somewhat light in color like a pastel.
    • In a plastic container, add just enough water to completely submerge your white fabric, add the dye and mix, then add your fabric and soak. Then air dry.
    • Non-absorbent or synthetic fabrics may not yield good results. Dye may wash out so we recommend not washing the fabric after applying the dye.
  • Not all usages will work so we recommend testing.

  • Other Possible Uses:
  • Calligraphy / Lettering with a brush on paper
  • Halloween or Party Costume
  • Holiday and Party Decorations
  • Classroom Experiments & Teaching
  • Blacklight / UV marking & detection
  • Cleanup / Hygiene Demonstration (using our invisible blue color)
  • Spraying, splattering and Airbrushing
  • & Many More!

Further Information on Blacklight UV Paint / Dye

This is professional grade ultraviolet blacklight reactive liquid, guaranteed to have a long life bright glowing effect (tested to keep glowing for years when kept out of sunlight.) The glow mixture is permanent, no need to ever re-mix. The liquid UV dye is not toxic but is not for consumption or internal use of any kind. It can temporarily stain skin (lasts a day or so, or can be scrubbed away with effort) and can stain clothing and some other surfaces. This product is not sold for use on the body.

Under regular light with no blacklight present, Alien Green is yellow-green, Electric Blue is clear / invisible, and the other colors are similar to their glowing color.
