How Fluorescent Dye Tracing Products Work:
The “visual” aspect of Bright Dyes products refers to normal reflection of light as color. The “fluorescent” aspect refers to special properties of some chemicals to absorb certain wavelengths and then emit, rather than reflect, light in response. The emission can be seen by using a “black” ultraviolet light or precisely measured with a fluorometer. The reflected and emitted light have different wavelengths and are, therefore, not the same color.
