We can create glow walking path without neccessity of Electricity by mixing in sandwash, or sparse it on your flooring. Glow stone size is random but we offer 2 groups of stone size; big size group of 8-12mm and small size group of 1-4mm.

Using weight and coverage area of glow stone

Each size of glow stone has different area coverage per weight. Large size of stone will be seen as big bright spot which is good for the area that is required to be glow in group. Meanwhile, small size of glow stone has better area coverage per weight since its small size makes visibly glow area in small spot cover all the area. However, brightness of small stone is less than big stone. So that, usage of glow stone depends on requirement of each designed area

For making glow walking path or glow bike lane, glow stone with small size of 1-4mm is more appropriate due to its larger area coverage by weight. We can use less glow stone to cover the same area compare with using large size of glow stone, but brightness must be traded off.

Recommend to sprinkle glow stone on topmost surface.

Usage example of glow stone

Nexit® glow stone can glow without electrical power required. It is good for using in walking path, sandwash flooring, bicycle lane, garden decoration, plant pot decoration, or fish tank decoration.

For using glow stone to make sandwash flooring, brightness depends on mixing ratio of glow stone per area. Normally, sandwash flooring with 1-cm thickness requires 1 bag (20 kilograms) of normal stone per 1 square meter. In normal sandwash flooring process, the stone will be mixed not sprinkle on surface but this is not good for glow stone. Glow stone which is mixed and immersed into lower part of the flooring cannot absorb any external light and the glowing performance will be very limited. Hence, we need to add glow stone many more than the case of surface sprinkle. For glow sandwash flooring, we recommend to use small size of glow stone 1-4mm mixing with ordinary stone with ratio of 1 by 4 (1:4). In summary, we can use approximately 4 kilograms of glow stone (1-4mm) mixing with 16 kilograms of normal stone to make 1 square meter of glow flooring with thickness of 1 centimeter (1cm).
