Tim,

I use the florescent kind (one with a tube) and as said before it makes the non original enamel glow. It becomes kind of bright yellow or orange. If the enamel is original (or apparently, as Marc pointed out, if it was repaired with real hot enamel) nothing happens, I mean it doesn't glow.

Chuck,

Mine is from Leuchtturm, very cheap but very useful, for the reasons mentioned by the other fellow members.
