glow tubes

I know I read a thread about glow in the dark powder some time ago, but I can't seem to find it. I've had some Delmart glow powder for a long time. Any idea how much glow powder you add to 1/2 cup of plastic, what colors glow best OR does it even work??

Re: glow tubes

Most people add it like they do glitter, some guys that make stik baits don't add salt and add the glow stuff only as its very heavy.

Its kinda like a ghost greenish/yellow color.
it works but only if you charge it, charge meaning give it intense light either by sun or better yet a flash from a camera after it sits in the sun.

I used to use it for spoons and painted the stuff on the spoons through and air brush.
as far as it working on fish I think its all confidence, there was 2 years of fishing tournies were I couldnt catch fish spooning with out it spooning. My partner was using a regular spoon I was using the ones I painted left them in the sun that flashed them with a camera flash. I would catch alot more fish. I thought they were the best then I didnt have any for one seaosn and did all right so I think its confindence.
