Would love to spray some of this on my kid's bikes. Wonder if it helps during the day as well. A lot of gloomy days in the PNW.
Wonder if the self driving car team was like "We're on schedule, but bikers at night are impossible for the sensors to pick up". Then some other team went to go build Life Paint. Solving an internal problem then shipping it out to the masses.

I want this for Burning Man and all the darktards that don't light themselves up!
Can't wait to beam my lights at a car only to be confronted with a bright reflective penis painted on the side. Cue the lawsuits!
@robertnachum7 LifePaint is available for sale at most Volvo Car dealers. http://www.volvocars.com/uk/abou...
I hunted this back in March 2015, 9 months ago, when it was originally released! https://www.producthunt.com/tech... Glad to see this is getting the attention today!
It seems that this product is just a repackaged version of albedo100's invisible bright spray. Read it here on the website: http://www.albedo100.co.uk/volvo... Also, the original thing is available here if you want to buy it: http://www.albedo100.co.uk/produ...
"Lasting more than a week of normal usage." so you have to reapply it every week?

@nichlaswa I thought "what about my car?" and wanted to get some for my rear bumper. When I went to your reference, Albedo100 has a permanent paint that WON'T wash off every week. That's a much better deal. Also, Volvo's product doesn't seem to be available outside England and Bretagne.
Anyone know if this stuff has any effect on the integrity or finish of carbonfiber bike frames?

I am an old guy with typical contrast vision loss and rarely drive at night. My greatest fear is hitting someone my contrast cannot see. Get this product.
Very creative! It looks nice but would people really spray that paint on their clothes? You can also wear a reflective jacket and make sure your lights are working...
@inlovewith01 Pretty sure the reason it's awesome is because of this: "Making the invisible, visible. LifePaint washes off, and will not damage the colour or the surface of your chosen material, lasting more than a week of normal usage" (from the website).
Cool move!
