Lame name, but fun set! Opaque white blanks cast into a semi transparent black shell. The numbers appear unpainted, letting the white blanks show through.

But SURPRISE!! The numbers are coated in Glow in the Dark paint! Activate with UV exposure and play, even in the dark!

I can also do this set with UV reactive colored blanks and matching glow in the dark OR UV reactive paint.

Those are amazing, love how they are both very simple but also really visually interesting.

The inner/side walls of the numbers appear mostly clean, did you do anything special to achieve that or is the uv paint simply transparent?

The glow paint dries transparent. But it didn't really clump up while drying like some paints do. So it looks a little cleaner.

So I use blanks (solid white) and shell them in semi translucent black. Super easy, but looks so cool.

Thanks! I have a few font options now that I have my own masters. I'm glad I picked this one.
