Don't mis-understand here. I am using straight, clear plastic, no color. The pigments I use glow in the colors mentioned and slightly stain the clear plastic. Any color added to the plastic inhibits the transfer of light that creates the glow. The glow purple pigment is almost pure white, dry in the package. I can hit it wth the camera flash and it glows purple. I don't add the purple or red or green to the pigment nor do I color over the pigment, the pigments are designed to glow in those colors.

I added the stabilizer because the pigments are heavy and might heat faster than the plastic. I didn't want to work around scortching issues.
