Adding pigments is a fantastic way to personalise your resin bath, whether you’re after subtle tints or striking colours. Here’s what you need to know to achieve a beautiful, safe, coloured resin finish.
Choosing Pigments for Resin Baths
Select pigments specifically designed for epoxy resin. Resin-safe colourants, such as pastes or powders, are formulated to disperse evenly without disrupting curing. Avoid general craft or water-based paints, as these may cause uneven finishes or inhibit proper hardening.
Application Tips for Luminous Colour
Add the pigment to the resin while mixing and blend thoroughly for a uniform hue. Begin with a small amount, mix well, and gradually increase until you reach the desired intensity. To prevent surprises, always test your colour blend on a small sample before completing your full resin bath project. This helps you check both compatibility and appearance.
When Testing Colours Matters
Testing is especially important if you’re new to colouring resin or using a new combination of resin and pigment. Ensuring compatibility on a small scale prevents larger issues in your bath project.
