If you’re aiming to achieve rich, dark colours in your UV resin projects, the Colourfun set is a reliable choice. Its concentrated pigments are well-suited for creating striking, saturated shades with ease.
How to Use Colourfun with UV Resin
The Colourfun set is fully compatible with UV resin. To create deep and vivid colours, add a small amount of the Colourfun liquid colourant to your UV resin and mix thoroughly. Start with just a few drops, as the pigments are highly concentrated—a little goes a long way. Gradually increase the amount until your desired depth of colour is reached but remain mindful not to exceed the recommended pigment load, as too much may impact curing performance.
It’s easy to blend and customise your own dark hues with this set. For example, to achieve a rich grey, you can mix the black and white Colourfun dyes together.
Tips for Achieving Dark, Even Colour
- Blend pigment thoroughly to ensure smooth colour without streaks.
- Test a small batch before committing to a large casting to check both colour strength and curing.
- If aiming for intense opacity, gradually increase pigment concentration, but monitor resin clarity and cure rate.
- For larger projects or more consistent results, consider using the Colourfun Set for Solid Colour Effects to explore a wider palette.
When This Matters
Rich, dark colours are essential when you want bold, statement pieces in jewellery, crafts, or decorative castings where translucency is minimised. The Colourfun set delivers these effects, making it ideal for artists and hobbyists who need vivid, reliable results with their UV resin projects.
