FAQ

• Do you offer helpful tips for using Crayola Glow Fusion?

  It’s glow time! We have some tips to help you get the best results from Crayola Glow Fusion.

  2. Protect your work surfaces. Glow Fusion Markers are not washable.
  3. When the markers (activated or not) are not in use, cap and lay them flat in the marker tray to prevent leaking.
  4. For the brightest glow effect, use the markers promptly after activating.
  5. To activate the markers:
     • Bend the marker barrel at the star points to crack the glow capsules.
     • Shake the capped marker for 5 seconds.
     • Remove the cap and hold the marker tip down until it glows.
  6. Turn off the lights to see your art shine at its brightest!

• Do you offer helpful tips for using the Crayola Color Explosion Glow Dome or Dome Light Designer?

  If the lights and/or spinning features are not operating as expected, the following reset tips are often successful.
  
  1. Check to be sure the batteries are installed properly. Reactivate the unit by sliding the black on/off switch on the underside of the base. The "on" position is indicated by a straight line and may need to be reset by turning it off and back on twice.
  
  2. Remove the center drawing surface, which must be in place for the center lights to work, and firmly push it back into place.
  
  3. Check the red gear ring on the plastic dome to be sure it is flush against the lip. Place the lid on the base.
  
  4. Activate the light feature by moving the silver slider switch to the right. Activate the dome rotation by pressing the silver button. See product instructions for additional details.
  
  Additional tips:
  
  5. Glow Dome Markers are attached to the cardboard packing located at the bottom of the Glow Dome/Dome Light Designer box. Opening the box from the bottom should assist in locating the markers.
  
  6. Room lighting should be dimmed for the Glow Dome/Dome Light Designer lights to show up.
  
  7. The unit will turn off automatically after one hour and may require the above reset tips.

  Cleaning Tips:

  • Rinse and dry all pots, covers, funnels, and watering can.

  Looking for refills?

  • Need another bouquet? White coffee filters are the perfect alternative to paper petals because they mimic the wicking process of the ink into the paper.
  • Have leftover ink? To make your creativity bloom again, rinse the used cores and tips under running water to clean up as much of the ink as possible. Just be sure to wipe up any ink right away and let the cores and tips dry thoroughly. We’ve found this craft hack works best when the ink is fresh and hasn’t had too much time to set.
