Flexiglow UV Reactive Neon Paint

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the it-ain't-no-picasso dept.

VL is running a review of (no I'm not kidding) UV Reflective Paint for whatever sort of artistic case design aspirations you might have. Various colors and some bad photos make me kind of wonder about the whole thing, but perhaps others have more informed thoughts...

    How much of a performance boost will this paint give me? Will it allow me to run Doom 3 in XGA??

    Note that you can see some pretty interesting "pre-painted" gear directly at the company's website.

  3. I have to ask by Ryvar · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I'm not terribly familiar with the latest in case-modding, so I have to ask - are these UV lights entirely safe for longterm exposure? Say, 16 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year?

    Can I put it in my inkjet?

    I remember painting the inside of my folks microwave when I was younger using a similar green paint.

    My non too technical mother freaked when she saw the "radioactive glow".

    But this new stuff, can I use it on skin?

    I have a lovely sphinx cat which would look devastating with a fluorescent glow.

  6. making a bitchin hoopty by photozz · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Personally, I think painting my hardware is on the level with doing burnouts in front of the high school with my bitchin Camaro that I will fix up someday. It does nothing for system performance, and can't imagine what it's doing to the thermal properties of the card. It's just tacky. Really tacky. If you have that much energy you should concentrate on Doing something a little harder
