We use a special phosphorescent pigment that reacts to UV light. The light it absorbs in the day time is gradually emitted during the night. Its light is much more intense than the phosphorescent paints available in stores and the period over which it can emit the absorbed light is ten times longer.

Depending on the charging level, the Nightsky Ceiling can glow for 2-8 hours. The charging level depends on the amount of natural light available, and thus it is crucial when ordering to specify the size and number of windows in the room and the amount of light they are exposed to. If the windows are too small or only a relatively small amount of light reaches them, you should ask for extra light sources to illuminate the ceiling, for example, a spotlight, a UV tube, UV light bulb etc.

The manufacturer gives a 25-year warranty on the paints, but since this is not tested by our company we offer a 7 year guarantee on the Nightsky Ceiling.

The paint itself is a water-based paint, but after it has completely dried, it does not dissolve. This makes it usable in areas with relatively high humidity, such as bathrooms, or even in saunas or above a swimming pool.

For the preparation of the Nightsky Ceiling we only use phosphorescent, UV reagent paint that meets strict quality standards. The quality certificate given by the manufacturer guarantees that the paint contains no radioactive materials.

It can be painted on virtually any surface. The material and colour of the surface does not influence the experience of the Nightsky Ceiling, but it might make it visible during the day. The Nightsky Ceiling is invisible on white or other light coloured ceilings. It is alsoa good idea to paint it on sawdust wallpaper because the painted stars are not noticeable on rough surfaces.

The surfaces do not need any preparation. However, it is recommended that any upcoming painting of the room is brought forward, so that the Nightsky Ceiling can serve for its full lifespan.

Painting the Nightsky Ceiling does not involve any mess or getting dirty, as we use masking when and where it is needed. We leave the room as we found it, so the surprise for the recipient will be as perfect as possible: they will only become aware of the Nightsky Ceiling at nightfall and not from the mess left behind.

There is no need to empty your room for us to paint the Nightsky Ceiling. However, you must ensure that every inch of the ceiling is reachable from a ladder, and since most of the work has to be done in darkness, you must ensure that the room is darkened, too. This means the room must be pitch black.

The Nightsky Ceiling absorbs the natural light that comes into the room, and therefore you need the appropriate size of windows. If there is not enough natural light, you can charge it with UV lamps, or you can use a UV light bulb or a spotlight. When not charged with natural light the ceiling glows for less time. Using UV light it charges faster but lasts a shorter time. If you light it using permanent UV lighting, there is no need for prior charging and you get a sparkling, more intense experience.

Not at all. In fact the Nightsky Ceiling is best experienced in total darkness. If you would like to see something else in the room besides the Nightsky Ceiling, for example, in an aroma-therapy room or a massage-room, we recommend a permanent UV light.

Using water-based paints we hand-paint the illusion of the starry night sky with recognisable constellations and appropriate proportions.

Since the Nightsky Ceiling is made in different stages, and it can not be enjoyed fully in individual stages, we would like the customer to get the first impression based upon the completed ceiling.

Every Nightsky Ceiling is made according to the customers’ ideas so every Nightsky Ceiling is a unique creation. It is possible to ask for other images, for example, cartoon or fairy-tale characters, but in all these cases it is necessary to clarify the price and feasibility.

No, it does not. The Nightsky Ceiling is painted over the original colour of the ceiling. It is invisible only on light backgrounds but it can be painted over any coloured ceiling.

The Nighsky Ceiling is a wall-painting so it does not move. However, some of our customers have told us that when they woke up in the middle of the night under the Nightsky Ceiling their heartbeats alone were enough to create the illusion of movement.

It needs to be as dark as when we look at the actual stars in the night sky. Light pollution ruins the experience in the case of the Nightsky Ceiling as well.

The relative location of star constellations is realistic but we have to choose what to paint according to the features of the room so the ceiling will not become a sky map.

The Nightsky Ceiling is invisible during the day depending on the colour of the ceiling unless someone wants it to be seen. In that case, a separate light source is needed.

First of all, the Nightsky ceiling glows ten times longer than any other technique and has a much more sparkling light since it was especially developed for this purpose. Invisible in the daytime, the Nightsky Ceiling reproduces a lifelike three-dimensional view of the starry sky with nebulae and real constellations.

Yes, it does. The painting of the Nightsky Ceiling vanishes completely if painted over because it is painted in such a thin layer that even a single layer of paint covers it perfectly.

Yes, of course. It is even desirable to do so because corners are undetectable and you will have the sensation that the entire dome of the heavens is falling on you.

Yes, it can be painted in a nightclub as well using a special paint visible only in UV light, in which case there is no need for complete darkness but continuous UV lighting must be provided.

We received feedback that children who could only sleep with a night lamp on calmed down and gazed amazed at the stars and shooting stars.

There is nothing dangerous or harmful in the Nightsky Ceiling for just like the stars of the night sky, the stars of the Nightsky Ceiling emit a low-power light and any extra light can ruin the experience.
