This car lights up with something called LumiLor. It’s not LED light, but paint.

It does not just glow-in-the-dark. It is a special kind of paint that turns on and off by reacting to an electric charge.

How LumiLor comes in

Andy Zsinko had over 20 years of aftermarket painting experience creating custom designs for all types of vehicles. In 2009, a friend asked Andy to complete a special paint job on a motorcycle; a job that would cause the motorcycle to glow in the dark. However, he was unsatisfied with the finished product.

It had too short of a life and locked a mechanism to control the glow. He was curious and experimental. Unsatisfied with the norm, a self-described lab rat, he quickly got to work.

A year later and he had a functional prototype which he used to paint the album cover of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon on a Kawasaki police. This product would inspire a whole team of people dedicated to making beautiful designs glow.

Darkseid Scientific Inc patented a product they call blue moon. It’s a spray-on product that illuminates when you apply an electrical current to it. It’s not like glow-in-the-dark paint. It can be applied to any surface in any variety of shapes and looks and acts just like regular paint.

When not charged, this Lexus painted with LumiLor for example looks like it came out of the factory. That is until you turn the LumiLor on. Electric currents excite the material.

This means you can get modulating pulsating light effects like this.

Darkseid Scientific Inc intends LumiLor to be used across the world in aftermarket shops.
