Default Need to make mask glow.

I bought some cheap Kmart rubber clown masks to put in my dot tunnel. They were brightly colored and I thought they would glow with blacklight, wrong. It does glow in a few spots though. Is they anyway I can treat these so they will glow?

yup just paint them with a flourescent paint. It might not stay on forever but it will last the season easy.

I use a UV hair spray on some of the props. And if you dont like it, it comes off with soap and water.
Also Yellow highlighter works.

You can paint on some liquid tide and that glows.

a little late for the answer but early for this year
you can use clearneon spay paint also sold in liquid form..
comes in different color but the fun part is,it's tansparent when applied and only glows under black light..my crank gost has a bluish/purple color..

great stuff to use even as body paint..
here's the link, http://www.clearneon.com/

Try these. I bought some and they are really cool. Takes a few layers to get good color.
