Museums around the world use this to entertain and to teach people about light. A wall is usually painted with our Fast Glowing phosphorescent Paint CPZN1-06. Then a strobe light or any powerful light is used to charge the wall. The light is turned on for a short time while someone is standing between the light and the wall. This causes a temporary shadow to be produced from the person's shadow, which can be repeated as many times as you wish.You can also do this on a much smaller scale by utilizing the same techniques described here. Great for school projects and science fairs.

You Need:

1. Our Fast Glow CPZN1-06. One gallon covers ~350 square feet.

2. Dark area or a wall or drape. Something you can apply the paint to.

3. A light source that you can turn on and off. The stronger the light source the most intense the shadow.

Application:

Paint the wall with the CPZN1-06 paint. The more paint usually the better the result. Place the light source facing the wall. Depending on how big the wall is, you might need multiple lights. Have someone stand in between the light source and the wall before putting the light on for second.

The closer to the wall you stand the more detailed the shadow. You can also do this with any light but you will need to leave the light on longer for a similar result. If you do the latter then you will need to remain still white the light is on, otherwise you will not see a distinct shadow.
