Default blue glow in the dark paint?

Just found this glowing pigment to mix in with your paint that glows, could you imagine if a blue glow in the dark c4 passed you on the highway? Check this out, kinda am thinking about spraying a coat as the 85 is about to be painted anyway. Tell me what ya think.

Don't know about doing the whole car, but could be cool for some stripes of something.

Would help you find you car at night!

Reminds me of the burgler who had the sneakers that light up when you step. He could not get away from the police either. Bet if you were speeding they would be able to track you down. hahaha
