Description
What Is AllureGlow Orange/Orange Glow in the Dark Plastisol Ink?
AllureGlow Plastisol Glow in the Dark Ink – Orange/Orange is a professional-grade photoluminescent screen printing ink that delivers a bold, saturated orange plastisol print under normal daylight or indoor lighting — and an equally bold, saturated orange glow in the dark after charging under any ambient light source. It is phthalate-free, PVC-free, ready for use straight from the container on cotton and cotton/poly blends, and cures on a standard conveyor dryer at the same temperature as any conventional plastisol ink.
What sets Orange/Orange apart from most other colors in the AllureGlow lineup is its color consistency across both states. Many phosphorescent inks undergo a visible shift between their daytime pigment and their glow emission — Red shifts to orange-red, Yellow shifts to yellow-green. Orange/Orange maintains a true, consistent orange identity in both daylight and darkness. Designers who need their orange to look like orange — not a close cousin of orange — in every lighting condition get exactly that with this formula. The daytime print and the nighttime glow are recognizably the same color, giving designs a seamless dual-identity appearance rather than a dramatic transformation.
Orange is also one of the most commercially versatile colors in apparel decoration. It is the dominant seasonal color of Halloween and fall harvest merchandise, a core color for construction and safety workwear, the required color for hunting season safety apparel, and a primary brand color for a long roster of sports teams, universities, and organizations across every level of athletics. AllureGlow Orange/Orange turns every orange ink run into an ink run that also glows — with zero compromise on daytime color accuracy and no workflow changes required.

What Customers Love About It
Orange is one of the most in-demand seasonal colors in the screen printing calendar — and AllureGlow Orange/Orange lets decorators capture that demand with a product that delivers more than a standard orange ink. Halloween is the most obvious driver: orange is the defining color of the season, and orange glow-in-the-dark shirts, hoodies, and costumes are a perennial bestseller at every price point. The consistent orange-to-orange color identity means pumpkins still look like pumpkins, jack-o’-lanterns still look like jack-o’-lanterns, and every other orange design element reads correctly in both the shop and the dark.
Beyond Halloween, the orange glow market extends throughout the fall season and year-round for safety apparel. Construction workwear, utilities uniforms, and hunting safety gear all operate in the orange palette — and for garments where after-dark visibility matters as much as daytime compliance, AllureGlow Orange/Orange delivers both the required daytime color and a genuine glow that improves visibility in low-light work environments. Sports team decorators serving programs and organizations with orange as a primary brand color — think University of Texas, Tennessee, Clemson, Syracuse, and hundreds of high school and club programs — have a natural premium upsell opportunity every time orange ink is on the schedule.
Common Applications
- Halloween apparel — pumpkins, jack-o’-lanterns, costume graphics, and seasonal novelty shirts

How to Use AllureGlow Orange/Orange Glow in the Dark Plastisol
| Before Printing | Mix thoroughly before use. For long production runs, re-mix the ink periodically to maintain consistent phosphorescent pigment distribution and uniform glow output across the run. Keep lids on containers when not actively printing to prevent contamination. |
| Mesh Count | 90–200 mesh depending on design detail and desired glow intensity. Coarser mesh (90–110) deposits more phosphorescent pigment for stronger, longer-lasting glow. Finer mesh (up to 200) works for detail work but reduces pigment deposit and glow output. |
| Squeegee Technique | Heavy flood coat with light-to-moderate squeegee pressure. Avoid excessive downward pressure that can shear or crush phosphorescent particles and reduce glow performance. A generous flood and consistent stroke angle delivers optimal pigment deposit. |
| Underbase — Dark Garments | A white underbase is required on dark garments. Without an underbase, the dark fabric absorbs light energy rather than reflecting it through the ink film — dramatically reducing glow intensity and duration. Flash the white underbase fully before printing the Orange/Orange glow hit on top. |
| Underbase — Light / White Garments | No underbase required on white and light-colored garments. Print Orange/Orange directly for maximum pigment deposit and glow intensity. |
| Synthetic Fabrics | Add CLA-100 additive when printing on polyester, nylon, or other synthetic and performance fabric substrates to improve adhesion and wash durability. |
| Cure Temperature | 320°F (160°C). Curing time is 90–180 seconds depending on ink deposit thickness and garment color. Always verify dryer temperature with a donut probe prior to and during production. Confirm full cure with a wash test before running full production. |
| Cleanup | Standard plastisol ink cleaner — same cleanup procedure as any plastisol ink |
| Care Instructions for End Customer | Wash inside out in cold water on delicate cycle. Do not use bleach. Do not iron on print. Line or hang dry for best long-term glow durability. |

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What does AllureGlow Orange/Orange look like in daylight vs. in the dark?
In normal daylight or indoor lighting, AllureGlow Orange/Orange appears as a bold, vivid orange plastisol print — visually identical to a high-quality standard orange plastisol ink. In the dark, after charging under any light source, the same print glows a consistent, saturated orange. Unlike some glow colors that shift hue between their daytime and glow states, Orange/Orange maintains a true orange color identity in both conditions — what you print in daylight is what you glow at night.
Does AllureGlow Orange/Orange stay orange when it glows, or does it shift color?
AllureGlow Orange/Orange maintains a consistent orange color identity in both its daytime and glow states — there is no visible color shift. This makes it one of the most color-accurate glow inks in the AllureGlow lineup and the ideal choice for applications where precise color identity matters in both lighting conditions, such as Halloween graphics, safety workwear, and branded sports apparel where orange must be recognizably orange at all times.
Is AllureGlow Orange/Orange good for Halloween apparel?
Yes — AllureGlow Orange/Orange is one of the most popular AllureGlow colors for Halloween apparel. Orange is the defining color of the Halloween season, and an orange ink that also glows orange in the dark is a natural fit for pumpkin graphics, jack-o’-lantern designs, Halloween typography, and seasonal novelty shirts. The consistent color identity means orange design elements look correct in daylight and maintain their character when they glow — ideal for cohesive seasonal product lines.
Can AllureGlow Orange/Orange be used for safety or hi-vis workwear?
Yes. Orange is a standard safety and high-visibility color used in construction, utilities, road maintenance, and hunting safety gear. AllureGlow Orange/Orange delivers the required orange daytime color and adds an after-dark glow that improves visibility in low-light work environments and hunting conditions. For applications where blaze orange compliance is required, verify the daytime shade against the applicable standard before production, as compliance specifications may require a specific orange hue range.
Is AllureGlow Orange/Orange safe for children’s clothing?
Yes. AllureGlow Orange/Orange is phthalate-free and PVC-free, manufactured using only phthalate-free plasticizers, and compliant with all state and federal phthalate regulations. It is safe for children’s garments, youth apparel, and school spirit wear with no additional compliance reformulation.
Do I need a white underbase when printing AllureGlow Orange/Orange on dark shirts?
Yes — a white underbase is required when printing on dark or black garments. The phosphorescent pigments need a reflective white surface beneath them to absorb light effectively and produce a strong, sustained orange glow. Without an underbase on dark fabric, the substrate absorbs the light energy before it reaches the glow pigment — significantly reducing intensity and duration. On white and light-colored garments, no underbase is needed.
Can I print AllureGlow Orange/Orange on polyester or performance fabrics?
Yes — with the addition of CLA-100 additive. For 100% cotton and cotton/poly blends, Orange/Orange is ready to use straight from the container. For polyester, nylon, and other synthetic or performance fabrics, add CLA-100 to improve adhesion and washfastness.
What mesh count should I use for AllureGlow Orange/Orange?
AllureGlow Orange/Orange can be printed through 90–200 mesh screens. For maximum glow intensity, use a coarser mesh in the 90–110 range to maximize phosphorescent pigment deposit. Finer mesh counts up to 200 are appropriate for detail designs but will deposit less pigment and produce a softer glow output.
What temperature does AllureGlow Orange/Orange cure at?
AllureGlow Orange/Orange cures at 320°F (160°C). Curing time is 90–180 seconds depending on ink deposit thickness and garment color. Always verify dryer temperature with a donut probe before and during production, and confirm full cure with a wash test before running full production.
Is AllureGlow Orange/Orange available in water-based or discharge versions?
AllureGlow USA offers glow-in-the-dark inks in three formulas from River City Supply: this Plastisol Series, the HSA Water-Based Glow Series (cotton, blends & synthetics, softer hand), and the DC Series Discharge Glow (water-based discharge for 100% cotton — softest hand, zero surface buildup).
