DayGlo® SRX latex paint is a premium, low odor, fluorescent, water-based paint. Maximum lightfastness and film integrity are dependent upon the use of DayGlo SRX Filteray® W (clear overcoat)
Studies indicate that if an all-purpose single color is desired for impact, Blaze Orange is generally best for contrast with most natural backgrounds. DayGlo’s fluorescent colors do not tend to appear white, gray, or black (achromatic) at extreme distances and at dusk, dawn or low light conditions as do most non-fluorescent colors. This is a huge benefit for signage and any product that needs to be seen in a work environment for safety or efficiency.

Undercoat:
DayGlo SRX latex paints are semi-transparent and, therefore, brightest when applied over a clean, white surface. White semi-gloss latex coatings, flat white latex undercoaters, water based primersealers and water-based bulletin blockout whites are ideally suited for this purpose. Over old finishes, clean and sand before applying a white undercoat or primer that offers good adhesion to both the old finish and new DayGlo paint. However, best performance can be achieved by removing old finishes and starting with a freshly primed surface.SRX Latex Paint Color Coat:
- Stir well and if thinning is necessary, use water. (AVOID OVER THINNING).
- Apply one heavy coat of DayGlo SRX latex paint with a soft brush. Use short strokes. Cover completely and smooth out as you go to produce a uniform deep layer (approximately 1.5 mils thick dry). Keep in mind that thin spots or streaks will fade prematurely. Allow to set-up or "top dry" at least 10 minutes (@ 70oF).
- Apply the second coat same as the first. Allow 3 hours to dry before applying DayGlo SRX Filteray W overcoat.
- For sign applications, the DayGlo SRX coat can simply be roughed in, slightly overlapping the copy line. Your copy line will not be hidden because DayGlo SCR paint is semitransparent. Do not try to work the paint exactly to a line. An opaque background should be used to cut in accurately to the copy line for sharp detail after the DayGlo SRX paint has top dried 24 hours.
