Color Strength, Brightness & Finish

Innovative vehicle technology has given DayGlo the ability to disperse a high loading of sub-micron fluorescent pigment particles in the StarFire II Bases, and yet maintain a workable rheology. Inks made from the StarFire II Bases will exhibit strong, bright fluorescent colors with a satin or semi-gloss finish.
