Epoxy Resin
Epoxy resin is a thermosetting material widely used to create protective coatings and glossy surfaces. Composed of two main components, epoxy resin and hardener, which chemically react to form a strong and durable solid. This resin is valued for its ability to adhere to a wide range of materials such as wood, metal, glass, and plastic. It is commonly used in the DIY sector to create smooth and glossy surfaces on furniture, floors, and artisanal objects. Epoxy resin is also used to repair damaged surfaces or create waterproof coatings.

Epoxy Resin Pigments
Epoxy resin pigments are formulated to be mixed with epoxy resins to create custom colors. Available in various forms such as powders or liquids, these pigments offer a wide range of vibrant colors. It's important to carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions to achieve optimal results. Before adding the pigment to the resin, ensure precise measurements to avoid unwanted color variations.
