Yes, my son and I have also used it from the same
source. Somewhat expensive, but if you want to buy a
similar material by the Kilogram, you can find it on
the internet for less per gram by other companies,
most with chinese or singaporean connections, so it
may be manufactured in those areas.
We have used it in both classic cone06
oxidation electric firing ( classroom situation) with
less effect than a raku firing. Don't expect TOOOO
much glow, but it is spooky keen :)

Hi Vince, all...
How curious...!
Ivor I think, and definitely meself, (if not others at
times) had sent to-the-list,
some recipes for luminous Glazes. Some of which would fire
to a lot higher ^ than these would seem to do.
Should be there in the archives somewheres, or, if anyone
wanted, I could dig them up again...the recipes I have.
Other colors too beside these blues-and-greens if memory
serve.
I have an old German 'Police' Helmet here, immediate
post-war as it were, which has a luminous Paint on itself,
which even from a brief exposure to mild indoor light, and
being now almost 60 years old, glows with a really strong
eerie pale green in the dark...amazeing. But that is 'Paint'
of course, and we are after Glazes here...
My little Nickle plate 'Baby Ben' Alarm Clock still did well
in it's 75th year or so of unearthly glow...with it's
delicous little happy-go-lucky Radium numerals...you could
read them still, all vivid and perky, from clear across the
room...
Love,
Phil

I know that we all feel a little empty space inside, where
we simply have not been able to find the highest plateau of
fulfillment from all the clays, glazes, slips, terra sigs,
lusters, overglazes, low-firing, reduction-firing, raku,
sagger, pit-firing, salt-firing, and wood-firing. Sometimes
our lifelong search for just the right, tasteful,
sophisticated subtlety eludes us and leads only to repeated
frustration. Through our noblest efforts we continue the
gallant struggle, attempting to make work that will earn the
respect of our most discerning peers, and yet we so often
fall short. We try to find just the right surface, the
right effect, and yet those demanding judges are so ready to
criticize our best efforts as cheap tricks and gimmicks. We
are left empty and hollow, unable to proceed.
Well, our wait is over! Our frustration has ended! Now, we
can finally make the fine art work that has eluded us
through all these years. It is so simple. Just go to
http://www.glowingglaze.com/ to find the answer to your
hopes and prayers. Does it really work? You bet it does!
My artist-in-residence at the Craft Center, Wes Smith,
bought a small amount and fired it on a raku plate.
I have no relationship to this company and derive no profit
from my testimonial, but hey, I know a great thing when I
see it! I wanna try an image of Elvis over Amaco black
velvet underglaze! New York Art World, here I come!

Actually, a glow in the dark glaze was developed at least a decade ago
in Spain by Manolo Salas for the tile company where he is employed as a
technician. He made it for star tiles in the ceiling of a Salvador Dali
night club in Barcelona. He gave me a key chain test tile when he was
in one of my classes in Spain. Manolo is a very good artist but I
haven't seen the glow in the dark glaze in his private artistic pieces.

There was a really good article about gloze in CM about 5 months ago
(maybe more - time passes so quickly sometimes!) About 2-3 pages long
with lots of good info for those who are curious.
