Plastidip does one doesn't it? If so, it would be easy to remove if/when it fades and reapply.

It wouldn't. "Glow in the dark" is Luminescent not fluorescent.

Just remember not to lick your paint brush
To avoid what use to happen to the girls that use to paint the dials on aircraft or was it watches many moons ago. Thin they have changed the formula now

That was the factory in America where half the staff died of cancer and had to be buried as radioactive waste. A tragic story, yes they have changed the formula, now it absorbs energy from light and reemits it, in those days it was highly radioactive.
From memory, read Real Lifes Half Lives by Jeremy Hall.
A weird but fascinating book about people who became radioactive, sadly no superheroes among them.

when I was a nipper I went to a london hospital for a verucca to be removed.
they burnt it out with radium (NOW we know it kills people) and gave me a bottle of paint in case it recurred.
No verucca EVER again but I do have a lump, where it was, that itches like mad at times.
didn't need the paint, so I painted my toy soldiers and planes........... lovely glow in the dark toys..................... AND 6 men in lead gloves to remove them when we moved 15yrs later.
oh for the good old days when we knew no better.
