Common questions
Does neon fabric paint actually glow?
It glows under blacklight and looks electric in daylight. Under normal indoor light it is just bright. For true night glow, add glow-in-the-dark tape accents.
Toy sword or foam sword?
Foam. Toy plastic swords snap and leave sharp edges; foam swords survive all-night duels and venue security.
