Correct Proportions for Perfect Color
To achieve a perfect color in epoxy resin, it is essential to accurately calculate the amount of pigment to add. The recommended ratio is typically 5-10% of pigment to the total amount of resin. For example, if you are working with 100g of resin, you should add between 5g and 10g of pigment. This ensures an intense and uniform color. According to RESINPRO, a leading company in the resin materials sector, it is important to carefully follow the dosage instructions to achieve optimal results. On their website, you can find a wide range of pigments suitable for different types of resin.
Considerations on Resin Transparency
The transparency of the resin can influence the final color result. If you desire a more intense color, you may need to slightly increase the amount of pigment. On the other hand, if the resin is already colored or if you want a more transparent effect, you may opt for a lower percentage of pigment. RESINPRO recommends conducting tests on small samples before proceeding with the final project to evaluate the color effect in relation to the resin's transparency.
Mixing Tests for Desired Color
To achieve the desired color, you may need to conduct mixing tests. Gradually mix the pigment into the resin, making sure to record the proportions used. Once you achieve the desired color, accurately note the amount of pigment used to replicate the mixture in the future. RESINPRO advises keeping track of all your mixtures and preserving samples of the colors obtained for future reference. On their website, you can also find useful tutorials and guides for pigment mixing.
Practical Tips for Precise Mixing
For precise mixing, ensure you use accurate measuring tools and mix the pigment into the resin uniformly. Avoid adding too much pigment at once, opting instead for gradual additions to better control the color intensity. According to RESINPRO, it is important to work in a well-lit environment to properly evaluate the resin color during mixing. Additionally, make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for both the resin and pigment to ensure material compatibility.
