Q: How much pigment should I add to epoxy?
Mix the pigment at approximately 1 gram per litre in FlowCast, 2 grams per litre in FlowCast SPR or 6 to 8 grams per litre in UVPoxy for an opaque finish, and use about half as much for translucency.
56Z8131 - EcoPoxy Nebula Metallic Pigment, 15g (0.5 oz)
EcoPoxy produces superior-quality durable epoxy resin systems developed for the woodworking and art markets.
For use with all EcoPoxy resins, this powder consists of fine mica particles coated with pigment. They remain suspended in the cured epoxy, reflecting light to create a shimmering, iridescent effect.
For an opaque result, the mix ratio for FlowCast resin is approximately 1g/litre, 2g/litre for FlowCast SPR and 6g to 8g/litre for UVPoxy, depending on the color. A translucent appearance can be achieved using reduced ratios: half of the above for FlowCast and FlowCast SPR and 2g to 6g/litre for UVPoxy. A transparent mix requires even less pigment.
Colors can be combined for custom shades or used with EcoPoxy liquid pigments or glitter to produce a range of effects.
Comes in a 15g (0.5 oz) pot.
Mix the pigment at approximately 1 gram per litre in FlowCast, 2 grams per litre in FlowCast SPR or 6 to 8 grams per litre in UVPoxy for an opaque finish, and use about half as much for translucency.
Yes, it mixes into UVPoxy at roughly 6 to 8 grams per litre for an opaque result, with lower ratios giving a lighter, more translucent tint under UV cure.
The powder is made of fine mica particles coated with pigment, which stay suspended through the cure instead of settling out, giving the shimmering, iridescent finish.
Yes, colors can be mixed together to create custom shades, and combining them with EcoPoxy liquid pigments or glitter adds further layered effects.
Every pot contains 15g (0.5 oz) of powder, which stretches across several batches at the recommended gram-per-litre ratios.
