What it is and when to reach for them
- Transparent dyes tint clear casting resin without losing transparency.
- Suitable for jewellery, small decorations, coasters, paintings and large castings where you want to preserve depth and translucence.
- Diluted colour = sensitive dosing for small volumes; concentrate = economical colouring for larger doses.
Dosage and mixing
- Start with very little: typically 0.1–1 % of the weight of the mixed resin (A+B); increase as needed up to ~3 %.
- Add the colour drop by drop to the already mixed clear resin and mix slowly for minimum bubbles.
- You can mix shades together for your own palette; record the ratios for repeatability.
How to achieve crystal clarity
- Under-colour rather than over – a small amount will preserve depth and translucence.
- Pour thinner layers and let them partially harden if you need a stronger tone without clouding.
- Avoid overheating with hot air – it can change the shade and introduce micro-bubbles.
Compatibility and use
- Designed for clear epoxy casting systems with sufficient working time.
- Can be combined with pearl/mica or fine glitter – perform a small test first.
- For large castings, bear in mind that the layer thickness affects the perception of saturation (it appears darker in deeper sections).
