Trust me, this stuff will show up, under almost no light....we have it on the noses, side sill and hand rails of our locomotives, and I can use my 6 volt switchman’s lantern, and get a reflection from well over 100 yards. As for maintaining it on cars, the rain will pretty much take care of that, and the UV resistance is pretty good to boot. If you miss one of the cars done up with the new tape at a crossing, it is because your blind or asleep. Ed
