Been using a Blacklight for a few years now..... use it to make the window "GLOW" for displays like Halloween and Christmas.. ... Im not sure if anyone else has mentioned the blacklight b4 or not...

We are doing white/black/silver window this year so out comes the blacklight makes the white almost glow in the dark which is a very nice effect. (for those who dont know what a blacklight tube is,,,, remember the nightclubs,,, if u have dandruff everyone knows

).... ..... We finished off with Ice blue led lights behind the display.... looks kinda nice

WOW!!
brill idea - i'm going to pinch it

I've got one of those little 'note checker' UV lights, i hope that might be enough just to light up my "snow" at the front

lol,,, i use a tube about 4 ft. ..... prob depends on quantity of snow and how close to it your light is,,,,

Have noticed that some materials dont reflect the light like u would expect and others are just WOW !

I bought some Glow in the Dark paint type of thing (small bottle from craft shop) had loads of fun with that in halloween window displays, and that stuff is very spooky under UV.
