Brig Posted July 30, 2011 Share #1 Posted July 30, 2011 just picked these two up...look legit, but the rear and the rear only of the 1st MarDiv glows under blacklight. Along the cut portion of the 1st MarDiv appears to be some sort of adhesive or plastic, 2 factors that make me wonder. As I'm not a cloth guy, I figured I'd post here for opinions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLeo Posted July 30, 2011 Share #3 Posted July 30, 2011 Does the entire back glow or is it just in a few spots? Sometimes these patches pick up lint, dust, etc from the air or brushing against something and they glow from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patchcollector Posted July 31, 2011 Share #6 Posted July 31, 2011 I've heard that detergent soap can make patches glow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
