    Default u/v blast and super glow powder question.


    I am curious if anyone has used a Super Glow color and then used U/V blast as a top coat?
    I was looking at descriptions of the different types of colors and coatings and got to wondering if using a super glow powder topped off with U/V blast would give the best of both a glow in the dark re-chargeable jig that also reflected U/V light?
    Perhaps I am over thinking this also.

    Nope, you are not over thinking it at all. I have used both with great success. I have tested them in light and dark and work well in both. I use a black light to check them too!! Dipping in both is the best of both worlds.

    The uv coating will work in a fishing situation as long as there is some light, natural light that is. The light emitted from a glow paint will not make the glow paint coated with uv glow any brighter. Both coatings react to black light because black light excites the fluorescent colors and loads the uv coating with uv light.

    sounds interesting. Just now getting into colors and as I look into them, this combination kinda of stuck out to me.

    I figured it was easier to ask, because if I was thinking about it, I knew some of the rest of you had most likely already done it. No point re-inventing the wheel.

    Hay buddy paint it up and field test it. Some of the best ideal have been taken because some guy put it in the back of his head and another took off with it. Paint it up and field test!
