Epoxy 2 grams per 8 ounces

The most common question that we receive is „How much pigment per gallon of epoxy?“. This is a very valid question and unfortunately there is no set answer due to the numerous types of applications and variations. This is why we recommend the 2 grams per 8 oz and add as desired.

For example:

  • Are you looking for an opaque or transparent look?
  • Lighter colors may take more pigment to achieve the color.

Why micron sizes matter:

  • PLEASE be aware of the micron sizes of the pigment. The larger the micron, the larger the particle.
  • Typical pigments average 10-60um.
  • Be aware that larger micron sized pigments will most likely have a heavier density which will cause the pigment to sink faster in fresh epoxy such as deep pours.
    • For example, our Icicle or 14k Nugget Gold is 200-700um and will most likely sink in fresh epoxy faster.
    • To alleviate sinking either let the epoxy settle up a little bit. Or, come back through your project to „stir“ it a little more.
