Rosco #5782 Fluorescent Paint, 1 Gallon, Yellow

For striking and radiant visual effects in photography and film production, the #5782 Fluorescent Paint in Yellow, manufactured by the reputable brand Rosco, is an exceptional choice. This luminous paint is available in a generous one-gallon size, offering a vibrant yellow hue that glows intensely under ultraviolet lights, making it perfect for creating a wide array of captivating effects. This high-quality fluorescent paint is formulated with the same water-based, vinyl acrylic binder found in Rosco's esteemed Off Broadway Paints, ensuring a durable and long-lasting finish. It's designed for use on a variety of surfaces, once they've been appropriately prepped, making it a versatile addition to any professional gear collection.

The #5782 Fluorescent Paint is best used straight from the can to maintain its bright, glowing effect. However, it can be diluted with water if necessary, though this may slightly reduce the paint's hiding power and brightness. To achieve the most dramatic color effects, a white base coat is recommended. Before application, ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dirt and grease. For porous surfaces, excluding fabrics, priming with Rosco Tough Prime is advised. If applying on a new plaster surface, use a commercial primer/sealer designed for raw plaster first, followed by Rosco Tough Prime for final preparation.

The application process is straightforward - stir the contents well before use and apply in thin, uniform coats using a quality brush, roller, or spray gun. Use overlapping strokes and keep a wet edge for the best results. This fluorescent paint has a minimum shelf life of approximately 24 months when stored in a temperature-controlled location, ensuring its longevity. Please note that fluorescent pigments may degrade from prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light, so it's best to avoid direct sunlight where possible. In conclusion, the #5782 Fluorescent Paint in Yellow by Rosco is a bright, vibrant, and high-quality choice for professionals seeking to create glowing effects in their photography and film projects.
