Just imagine a REAL 4 tonne dinosaur coming at you in the dark! I think I would split post haste.
UV fluorescent paint, often used on banknotes and some stamps. Also interesting to look at a natural mineral collection that glows in the dark under UV light.

From the coin article: Quote:
The other side depicts Queen Elizabeth. Her Majesty does not glow in the dark. Would have been interesting if she did.  Edited by Fuzzy317

It worked in the past for watch dials. Then if you lost a coin, you could find it with a Gieger counter.  Edited by just carl

Did read about this earlier, what a wacky fad. I wonder how long this will last, I've always though "glow in the dark" technology was passe.
