Glow-in-the-dark car absorbs the sun's rays during the day and lights up at night

A British inventor has created a glow-in-the-dark car which absorbs the sun's rays during the day and lights up at night.

Hamish Scott has come up with 'Starpath', a special coating which soaks up UV light during the day. It then glows in the dark for around ten hours after the sun goes down.

The bespoke, ultraviolet-energised paint is unique thanks to its formula made up of entirely organic materials.
Hamish, who works for Surrey-based Pro-Teq, spent eight days applying the paint to an electric Nissan Leaf. It contains a very rare natural earth product called Strontium Aluminate, which is solid, odourless and chemically and biologically inert.

Nissan says the unique paint, if they decided to introduce it to all cars, would last for 25 years and help drivers be seen at night.
