The spray, which is invisible in daylight, is washable and can go on fabrics, clothing and hard surfaces. If you don\u2019t have the reflective spray, show your creativity using reflective surfaces and light!<\/p>\n<p>Member companies of the Lighting Industry Resource Council (LIRC) are crowd sponsoring Chase the Dark this year.
