Volvo Life Paint

Pretty cool idea. I don't know how it affects fabric, etc., but it definitely seems to improve visibility dramatically.

That's pretty cool. Almost like a bulls eye.....:whiste:

 

[clamum]

Wow, that is very cool!

That is pretty cool. Too bad it washes off so easily.

That might actually be a plus, unless you have to ride in the rain a lot.

What good will this do when it's the dipshit bikers fault 99% of the time in accidents?

Maybe it will be cool that they are glowing in the dark while you beat them with their glowing bike.

Maybe Volvo should invest in a common sense spray?

So...reflective paint? That's all it is?

^ I was wondering the same thing. Is it just retro-reflective to the light source or will it "light up" from all directions?

Looks retro-reflective. Clever idea to put it in a paint.

Are all reflective paints transparent when not directly illuminated? I think that's the pitch here.

Don't tell the US Army, they'll start telling us to paint ourselves before PT in the mornings so we can do situps and pushups in the grass but still be safe from vehicles in the dark who barely drive anyway at that time because they're all doing PT like everyone else.

But you still have to spray it on something you hate or otherwise don't need to look nice during the daytime. Would you spray a matte clear paint on your favorite jeans just because everyone else can't see it?

Speaking of the daytime, this doesn't really help with collisions there.

All I can wonder is if you separated the pigment from the binder could you use it in a tattoo?

Mostly invisible during the day; party all night.

Wow do not breath this shit. I bet it's insta lung cancer.
