One coat of translucent Candy Apple Green.
Five coats (with appropriate drying time between each!) of clear "finish" coat.
One more coat of Candy Apple (still translucent!).
One more coat of clear coat.
This gave a certain amount of depth and texture to the surface and color. The glow-in-the-dark paint never contributed much, but the texture to it is a lot more "stonelike" than anything else I had in the paintbox at the time.
