I noticed wallyblackburn mentioning paint reacting to a black light when he asked about the Texaco doorstop. Are you saying some repos react to blacklight while originals don't?

No, Wally just breaks out in a Disco dance routine and starts saying "Grooooovy" which helps ease the pain of buying a repop that he was told was original.

Many paints today contain phosphors that will glow under a black light, while most older paints do not contain phosphors. You can also use it to detect repairs that are hidden from the naked eye.

Ouch! Actually, I've been saying "Graaavy", which explains the funny looks I get.
