Reflective vinyl works by bouncing light back to the original source. In daylight, the colors look like normal vinyl decals. But under headlights or flashlights the decals will look like they are lit up from within!
What is happening is that the light is bouncing off of microscopic glass beads that are embedded inside the vinyl, reflecting the light back to the viewer.
Since reflective decals do not need electricity, they can add safety details to your gear without complex wiring, or adding a drain to your battery.
Safety reflective decals can be applied to any smooth hard surface from your bicycle helmet, to your boat. Use them anywhere you would like to increase your safety during night time outdoor activities.
