as measured in lumens, sam? I'm not exactly sure how to answer that but maybe I can shed some light on this subject ( stop groaning, you guys love it,lol).

The actual product has been used for years in injection molding processes with great success. Injection molders use *pretty much* like compounds that we as powder coaters do. Did you ever see one of those neat glow in the dark keychains? Well.... same stuff, basically. Immediately after the light source is removed the glow is intense and bright. Slowly over time it loses value until hours later it is but a faint glimmer of it's original self. Well, this substance in powdercoating is no different. Use your maximum suggested ratio in your topcoat and it's very similar to what you should expect from those keychains. Over time it will lose value, but you simply recharge it again after that point. Hope that helps.
