if they made .68 caliber balls with a filler consisting of the chemicals in glo sticks, and in the middle of the ball was a smaller ball with a very weak shell filled with the catalyst.. technically when the ball explodes it should glow. this would take new meaning to playing night paintball. |

do the balls themselves glow, or just the paint inside. If the balls glow, it would be like tracers.

He wasn't talking about typical glow in the dark paintballs.
The idea is that they wouldn't be tracers. They would (or should) only glow after impact. They wouldn't need a UV light or anything to function. I can only imagine how expensive those kind of paintballs would be, but regardless of price, I know I would never use any kind of glowing paintball. |

On top of that I'm not so sure the chemicals inside glowsticks are exactly gentle on the skin...

Gentle on the skin isnt a big deal. It might just be mildly irratating(sp?). But if you get shot in the mask... Glow stick fluid makes you REALLY sick, trust me. Ive eaten one before. Get shot in the mask and swallow even a drop, youll be throwing up for the rest of the day. Not fun. Maybe find a way to make it non-toxic or non-irratating. |

hah, more like dumping sulfuric acid on your skin there are 2 chemicals in a glowstick a powerful alkali solution (that would be basic to those of you still in junior high or low level HS science classes) and a glucose solution. and alkalis react to organics much like acids react to metals... found it out the hard way... ouch Edited by warmonger83 |

That explains why regular night time paintballin isnt too popular, except fer them big time 24hr+ battle scenarios.

Hmmm, I didnt know it was that bad on the skin. The one time I had it on my skin I was more worried about what was in my mouth/throat/stomach than on my skin. Im warning everyone here ahead of time, never chew on a glow-stick, if it breaks open in your mouth, youll regret it. |

That would be cool.If they made a chemical the same in glowsticks but safe.Then you would see a glowing ball going 300 fps a you then splat! Your mask now glows in the dark!
