The product we are going to talk about today is the 3M Reflection Spray. “3M” is not necessarily a branded paint manufactured by 3M. It’s the micro-glass crystals that catch the light and reflect it. You may look up Albedo, Cuekondy, or Rust-Oleum products and get the best result by yourself, as it works like any basic spray paint. 

If you’re a jogger or if you do anything at night time and need to be seen more, it does the trick. So many manufacturers produce these paints, and there are non-permanent and permanent options.

Choose wisely for your needs; just remember that non-permanent painted-on fabric will come off in the wash.

They also usually have another line you can use on harder objects like a table, a safety helmet, or a bicycle metal frame. All you need to do is choose the right one, depending on the surface you wish to paint with reflective paint. Be sure to check the markings on a can twice. Here’s a sample photo: it’s achieved with Albedo 100 Reflective Spray.

What to do when you get the one you need?

Shake the can vigorously for at least one minute and do the painting. See the effect by taking a photo with a flash. It’s just like spray paint, so you will need to do this outside.

So we’re going to be spraying a sweater. Turn the camera flash on after the painting to see the actual result. You can’t really see it in person.

And here’s the sweater after being sprayed. Here’s the before and then the after, as shown on the left. You can see it looks a little dusty, but other than that, it’s pretty straightforward. It just does look like there’s a very, very thin layer of baby powder.

That was a review of this reflective spray by Albedo 100. Now the reason why I did this was that it’s just so freaking awesome. It’s a really cool, easy-to-use product. I went to the store to ask the guy for this, he said, “I don’t think that exists yet.” I said, “No, it does. It says it on your website.” Really this is beneficial for joggers, people that bike at night time, and even construction workers. This is a good reflective spray.
