Description
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION – Glow in the dark solvent paint
The only photoluminescent paint on the market with over 5 years’ experience, LuminoKrom® is a reliable, proven solution. Its high performance optimizes night-time visibility of pedestrian walkways and bicycle paths, enhancing user safety throughout the night.
LuminoKrom® photoluminescent paint improves the quality of landscaping by enhancing the visibility and safety of bicycle and pedestrian paths, whatever the weather conditions or time of day. Thanks to its luminous effect, users can easily identify their trajectory, anticipate bends, intersections or any other obstacle on their route. Greenways and soft mobility lanes equipped with our solution are a real success, both for daily commutes and for evening strolls, summer and winter alike.
Able to absorb natural light during the day and release it at night, LuminoKrom® creates a long-lasting luminous marking, visible up to 80 meters away for over 6 hours outdoors. This technology requires no electricity, no CO2 emissions, and no major construction work, making it a simple, economical and environmentally-friendly alternative.
PAINT PERFORMANCE

APPLICATION
TIPS FOR EFFECTIVE SOLVENT-BASED PAINT APPLICATION
The surface to be coated must be at least one month old before application.
It must be perfectly dry, clean and free of all traces of pollution, oil or grease, whether from the environment or from repeated vehicle traffic. It is also essential that the substrate is free from rising damp through capillary action, and that it is sufficiently rough to ensure good adhesion of the coating.
If required, careful cleaning followed by thorough drying can be carried out before painting.
To guarantee the effectiveness of photoluminescent products, they must be applied over a first coat of white paint. This clear undercoat acts as a reflector, maximizing the intensity of luminescence.

Our road paint can be applied in a variety of ways, depending on the nature of the job: using an airless machine or a pneumatic spray gun. For professional road markings, specific tracing machines are used. Equipped with high-performance spraying systems, they enable fast, even and precise application.
For smaller surfaces, on the floor or for wall signage, the use of an airbrush is recommended. This type of tool guarantees uniform application, particularly suitable for fine markings or hard-to-reach areas.
LuminoKrom® phosphorescent paint is supplied ready-to-use: no thinning is required before application.
By following the recommended installation steps, you'll optimize the adhesion and durability of the marking, while guaranteeing optimum visibility and greater safety for road users.

Steps for applying green solvent-based paint
Surface preparation: Thoroughly clean the area to be painted with water or a suitable cleaning product. Make sure the surface is clean, dry and free from all traces of grease, oil or dust.
Delimiting markings: Use masking tape or stencils to outline lines or symbols to be painted. This guarantees a clean, precise finish while protecting surrounding surfaces.
Application of white undercoat: Apply a first coat of white paint at a rate of 400 g/m². This clear base is essential to maximize the luminescence of LuminoKrom® paint.
Drying the undercoat: Allow to dry for at least 30 minutes. This is essential to ensure good adhesion of the photoluminescent layer.
Equipment preparation: Thoroughly clean your equipment with a suitable rinsing solvent before applying the final paint.
Preparing LuminoKrom® paint: Carefully homogenize the paint in the desired shade (almond green). Before application, make sure the paint is thoroughly mixed to ensure a uniform consistency. Depending on application conditions, a slight dilution with a suitable solvent may be necessary to adjust viscosity.
Application of photoluminescent paint: Apply LuminoKrom® paint at a recommended dosage of 900 g/m². Follow the recommended weight, application speed and specific recommendations in the technical data sheet for the version used (solvent-based or water-based).
Drying the luminescent layer: Allow to dry for at least 45 minutes, depending on ambient temperature and humidity. During this time, carefully protect the area from traffic and exposure to the elements.
Cleaning equipment: Once application is complete, clean your tools with acetyl thinner.

« More and more people are using this greenway for family walks and sporting activities. I see a lot more pedestrians coming and going between the two communes - it's like night and day! he observes. Before, you had to venture out onto the road with cars travelling at 80 kph. It was suicide. »
Jean, a jogger on the greenway between Pussay and Angerville
« Conventional street lighting is very expensive to install and maintain. Photoluminescent markings are more suitable, not least because they don't add to light pollution. »
