Can they be used to give color to uplighting without melting?

I've used them with CFL and LED light sources, and I haven't had a problem. The sheets are plastic, so at some temperature they will melt.

No they do not light up. A light can be added though, but make sure it's not too bright because the material is just a heavy paper not like a lampshade.

They are fairly thick and would color a flood light stream but maybe compare the diameters. It might also be wise to inquire with the company to make sure they won't melt on a flood light.

They definitely ought to work for that. However, you're going to want to check the bulbs you're using for the color light they're infusing your image with.

I know they would be bright enough. They lay against vinyl siding type of material in my setup and I've never seen any heat/burn marks. You should call Novelty for the best answer

I have no idea, I put them in a line of lights on my ceiling. They are not as bright as the ones I took out and I don't think they are hot.

Not sure but I would think so. Silicone is oven-safe so melted crayon should be no problem. They should pop out easily after they have cooled.

I do not think they are bright enough. We use them to photograph artwork and they must be placed VERY close to the object.

Hi, I'll be glad to give you my thoughts on this.The LED lights get a little warm bu not to melt the type of material you will use those against acrylic/polycarb.Go for it, these look amazing.

I am not sure. They were not soft enough for the kids to combine and make the color brown. We did not try to melt them.

No there is not I found this picture to be slightly miss leading. This build projects red, green and blue dots and circles it doesn't have a base color light the pictures show. I use theses on a dimmer pack with my band lady night at a gig and they worked good for the price

My experience was not good using them on 500W par 64 cans, they melted within minutes, so 100 W - if they are far away from the light they MAY be OK but I would not guarantee it. My smaller cans with 75W get pretty hot and warp the more expensive gels because the bulbs are about 1 inch away, so these would likely melt too. The PAR 64 cans held the gels about 10 inches away and as I noted they melted in minutes. These would work well for LED or fluorescent lights, but incandescent lights were a no-go for me.

Theoretically, yes. However, the material is plastic and the melting point is unknown. Also, you would be manipulating the light close to a potentially hot barrel.

They are bright but the warm is much easier on the eye. The strands are not super close together, so my guess is that you could but it won't be like candle light.

Yes you can, just make sure the color mix look pretty together. Like a nice color scheme

I haven't tried to do this but I would imagine since they are plastic they would melt - maybe not in short time increments. I wouldn't recommend it personally but that is just my opinion.

Absolutely. When it is moldably warm it's clear, then gets milky. Though I would suggest LED and not a tea light, a nearby flame would melt it.
