Blend in Your Chosen Glitter or Pigment for Dazzling Resin Effects

Choosing and Mixing Glitter or Pigment

Select a glitter or pigment suitable for resin, such as Metallic Pearl Glitter for a radiant shine or a glow-in-the-dark pigment for night-time effects. Before adding to your resin, gently stir your chosen additive into the mixed resin base. Start with a small amount—it’s easier to add more if needed. Continue mixing until the glitter or pigment is dispersed evenly, avoiding over-stirring which may introduce excess bubbles.

Achieving Even Luminous Effects

For best results, pour your blended resin slowly into your mould or onto your project. This helps prevent the glitter or pigment from settling or floating. Some heavy glitters may require periodic gentle agitation to remain suspended, while lighter pigments will generally remain stable throughout the curing process. Adjust your techniques depending on the thickness and working time of your particular resin system.

Tips for Consistent and Lasting Results

• Use fine or ultra-fine glitter for the smoothest distribution.
• If aiming for a glowing effect, ensure your workspace is well lit so you can check the evenness of pigment saturation.
• Test your mix on a small sample first—some colours and glitters look different when cured, and adjustments may be needed for a uniform effect.
