Is retrobright an actual product and if so where do you get it from in the uk?


You've gotta make it.  I don't think it can be made a "commercial product" because the chemicals involved can't be shipped or somesuch, but on the bright side most of the instructions that come up in Google searches will give you measurements and sources for the products in UK stores.  I had a terrible time trying to find the right stuff here in the States because most of the links were coming up with "just go down to your local blah-blah-blah store in London and buy such-and-such product that doesn't exist in the United States".  Bah.

But once you've got the right stuff, it works great!  ;)

Does it definafely need sunlight to take as I live in the uk and it only ever rains..


I did mine in the winter (no sunlight), just set everything up in my shower and hung a large UV-B light that I have for my snake about a foot over the mess and left it over night, LOL.  ;)
