CALCULATIONS FOR USING OUR FLAKES

This is the most frequently question asked and rightfully so!! Unfortunately there's no standard calculation when mixing flakes due to the numerous applications, and mediums that our flakes can be used with. I.E. Automotive, Epoxy, Fishing Lures, Woodworking, Pen Blanks, Acrylic, Varnish, Clay, Grout, Flooring, Countertops, Cosmetics, Fingernail Polish, etc. the list goes on.

Automotive

If you're spraying these flakes for automotive use, we recommend using a 1.7 mm tip.
Will NOT work with an airbrush gun due to flake and nozzle size.

Epoxy / Resin

These can be used in epoxy resin deep pours BUT, PLEASE understand that due to the density of the flake, it will most likely sink in a fresh pour.

ALWAYS TEST BEFORE FULL APPLICATION!

Eye Candy Epoxy Resin

The right epoxy resin gives you a dependable starting point for coatings, castings, artwork, and custom pieces. This versatile material begins as separate liquid components that react after they are measured and combined. As the mixture cures, it changes from a workable liquid into a hard, durable surface.

A two-part epoxy resin includes a resin component and a hardener component that must be blended according to the product instructions. Accurate measuring and thorough mixing help the chemical reaction occur evenly throughout the project. Following the recommended ratio also reduces the risk of soft spots, sticky areas, and an incomplete cure.

Choose the Right Resin for Your Project

Different projects require different working times, pour depths, and curing schedules. Deep-pour formulas are intended for thicker castings where the material needs more time to release heat and cure properly. Tabletop formulas are useful for coating bars, counters, artwork, and other surfaces that need a smooth, glass-like finish.

Fast-cure options can help when your schedule calls for a shorter turnaround. At Eye Candy Pigments, we carry a 24-hour fast-cure deep-pour option and a one-hour fast-cure resin alongside traditional tabletop and deep-pour products. Review the directions for your selected formula before mixing because working time, maximum pour depth, and cure time may vary.

Consider these details before selecting a formula:

intended project type
recommended pour depth
available working time
expected curing schedule
required kit size

A quality clear epoxy resin gives makers a transparent base for showcasing embedded objects, natural wood grain, artwork, or carefully chosen colorants. It can also be left uncolored when a clean, polished appearance is the goal. For colored projects, use pigment pastes and mica powders from Eye Candy Pigments to customize the finished look.

We offer one-gallon, two-gallon, and three-gallon kit options. Choosing an appropriate kit size can help you order enough material without relying on guesswork. You can use our website’s epoxy resin calculator to estimate how much product a project may require.

Good preparation is just as important as selecting the right formula. Keep the workspace clean, confirm that molds or surfaces are ready, and gather measuring and mixing supplies before opening the containers. Working methodically makes it easier to stay within the formula’s usable working time.

Whether you are new to resin or creating professional epoxy projects, Eye Candy Pigments offers supplies for every experience level. The right formula gives you a suitable working time and pour depth for your project. Browse our tabletop, deep-pour, and fast-cure epoxy resin formulas.
