Heard about this on news radio yesterday.
The article says it washes off.....guess that's good if your spraying your clothes or you get it on something else by accident. I wonder if you were to spray your helmet and then put a non washable clear coat over it, if it would still reflect or not.

I don't know, but I would think some reflective tape would be less hassle.

I just found that this stuff is made by Albedo100.  They also make it as a permanent product for metal, plastic, etc., but it is light grey in colour (not transparent).  You can also get another type for animal fur.
