After testing the UV detection card I took a look online for the UV sensitive colour changing pigment it used, and found that you can buy it as a bare pigment powder.
I think the rather dramatic warnings on the packet reflect the fact that the supplier I used is clearly aimed at industrial level paint finishes, so the powder is probably safe for mild home project exposure. But don't eat or snort it, or rub it in your eyes.
Even a tiny amount in resin gives a very vivid reaction to UV, as you'll see in the video.
