      Some after-parties at conventions have UV lights at them, too, so you would attend the con as a shield agent, and the after-party as a hydra agent!

    • @chemieju6305
      @chemieju6305 5 ปีที่แล้ว +40

      Uv ink is flourescent, you are probably thinking about phosphorescent ink. However this kind of ink isn't really translucent so you would see it. If you would really want to make it amazing you could probably go with electroluminescence.
