Stamps printed on Hi-Brite paper fluoresce very strongly under ultraviolet light, although I'm not sure whether a long- or short-wave lamp should be used. You just can't miss a Hi Brite stamp, especially if you are comparing it with a stamp printed on non-fluorescing paper. Bob Login to Like this post
