All latex balloons can oxidise in sunlight, leaving a velvety finish to the balloon. While some people like this look and others hate it, the fact is that the latex of the balloon has started to break down and will be more prone to popping! There are ways of preventing this however like applying balloon shine to the surface of your latex balloon.
Head over to www.balloonmark... for all your balloons!

Great tip. Here in the south of Spain we have abou 9 months of sunshine so balloons get oxidated really quickly . From now on I´ll use balloon shine. Thankyou
Glad we could help Vanessa!
It's nothing to do with biodegradation. Bio means microbes or fungus degraded it. You are correct that it is oxidation. It's partly a reaction with ozone, which the silicone will protect against. The silicone will not protect against UV damage, but the glossy nature of silicone will keep it looking shiny even as the UV continues to damage it.
One concern would be when the balloon pops, the contracted rubber will potentially get oil stains on fabrics.
Finally, if you want to try this at home, it's virtually chemically equivalent to armorall, which will work the same way.
Your Channel *BLOWS* Me Away!
Thanks Phillip!
treated balloon looked blotchy on the bottom. It does not seem to coat even. I would want to know how long it lasts outside. 7 minutes is not a proper test the product will do good in those conditions.
You don't show the product or how to use ir, but thanks for the info
Lisa Rubio shut up
I agree this is a stupid video
This product is problably perfect for looners
Many thanks for your very prompt response. Cheers! Mick
No problem!
There are always discussions on Facebook groups on how to use hi-shine so it would be really useful to have a tutorial to show us how to actually use the product please
Hi there! Using the spray bottle is the most effective way to get an even application; if you buy the larger bottle, you can decant it into a spray bottle.
So are you saying we should treat the balloons before taking them outside?
Unfortunately Balloon Shine has been discontinued, however there are new products such as Kalisan Shine Spray, which can be applied at any point, even after oxidisation and will still make the balloon shiny!
That's really helpful thank you guys because balloons really can't keep they're shine which is very helpful, how much is 1 spray bottle?
Hi JordinsWorld559
Balloon shine is great for keeping balloons shiny, especially in the heat!

Balloon Market thanks! Also does it need time to dry?
@@BalloonMarket How do you buy without an account.
The black balloon might have been too dark to get an easier look at what the oxidation looks like.
Hi Mark! Great video, I use balloon shine all the time to prevent oxidization. I have a dilemma, I spray the balloon and then a bit of the shine goes onto my floor and it makes that spot really slippery. I have tried washing it, but it doesn’t come off. Any tips on getting it off my floor?
He he. Search for how to clean floors.
Jaison Augustine thanks, but I’ve worked with this stuff and it doesn’t come off with regular cleaning products. I have tried.
Use it over a carpeted floor or put a towel or some newspapers on the floor
Is it okay once the balloon is sprayed to be rubbed on the skin?
When we touched them with the Balloon Shine applied, it was fine, but like with anything like this it's worth checking regarding allergies.
Sorry to “pop your balloon” pardon the pun, I’m trying to get rid of reflections from the studio strobe lights that I use for photography as they are very distracting and a pain to successfully remove in things such as photoshop. There you go you can’t please all of the people all of the time 😉👍
Does the balloon shine get sticky when used outside
Hi Michele! I'm afraid Balloon Shine is now discontinued. The alternative is Hi Shine, which is oily, and can be found here: balloonmarket.co.uk/index.php?main_page=advanced_search_result&autocomplate_id=&search_in_description=1&keyword=hi+shine
Could you give an indication as to how long balloon shine lasts please. I've heard of the product but never used it. Thanks . Mick
Hi Mick.
It does depend on the conditions that the balloon is kept in; sun, heat and humidity causes the latex to degrade.
Indoors, balloon shine would last for days but the balloon-shined balloon in the video started to oxidise after being kept outside for only a couple of hours. It was a very hot day and in direct sunlight however.
To get the best results, it might be worth conducting your own tests with the product in the conditions you intend to display the balloons.
Its really just to shine a little longer 🙄 and when you have a big project iT takes wayyy to many time
And you didn't show how to use it?? Useless video.
What a moaner you are
2 personas para explicar y hacer que la gente compre su producto......
how do i apply the product?
Hi Tahuna, you spray it onto the surface of an inflated balloon and rub it in with the supplied glove!
I have chalky looking 5inch balloons inside a deco bubble, how do i fix this? Please help 🙏
Although it is not something we have tried ourselves I have seen people suggest inflating a balloon inside the deco bubble first of all - such as a 16" and then deflating it and pulling it out and apparently this removes the chalk from inside the deco bubble!
I just want My Friend Balloon Jay To Keep living His life without popping or shrinking , is that possible?
Unfortunately, no!
Try Balloon Glow! Much better!
Why do you have to be a trade customer to buy this product?.... I just want to give my daughter a great birthday party
It's basically just armorall.
Where do you purchase the shine ftom and what is the lowest price?
Unfortunately the product is discontinued but it has been replaced with Hi-Shine :-)
I found this one year old balloon in my room it was blown up on 3/17/16
And I popped it on 8/
It would have been good for you to leave the balloon go flat by itself
where to buy this product?
Hi Dindo, you can find it on our website here: www.balloonmarket.co.uk/accessories/decorating-accessories/decorating-accessories/balloon-shine-236ml-1
Tu eres feo
Why am I here...?
That ‘treated’ balloon is completely splotchy and looks, there’s no way you want to touch a ‘treated’ balloon, definitely don’t get it on the floor or you’ll fall, and it doesn’t work for balloons outside. Save your money, this stuff is no good.
Thank you for your comment. We've actually found it to work really well for us :)
