ALWAYS TEST BEFORE FULL APPLICATION!

You have to try this one! Kiji is a beautiful Green, Purple, and Blue colorshift pigment. Just looking at it in person you can almost see all of the colors at once.

A very common question! The differences between the two are:
◦ Pricing!
◦ Colorshifts are your everyday shifting pigments.
◦ Ultrashift pigments are more vibrant and potent. They also take less pigment to
achieve their full color.
◦ Most Colorshifts contain Mica and Iron Oxide while Ultrashifts contain
Aluminum and Iron.
◦ Although our Colorshift pigments are just as impressive in some
applications, our Ultrashift pigments take it a few steps further.

Particle size : 5-55 μm

Ingredients : Fluorphlogopite, Titanium Dioxide, Silicon Dioxide, Ferric Ferrocyanide

Heat Threshold : 356 °F

Product Type : Mica
Vegan : Yes
Soaps : Yes
Epoxy Resin : Yes
Acrylic : Yes
FDA-Permitted for External Use : Yes
FDA-Permitted for Eye Area Use : Yes
FDA-Permitted for General (Including Lips) Use : Yes
FDA-Permitted for Bath Bombs Use : Yes

Colorshifts: 2 grams per 8 ounces

Ultrashifts: 1 gram per 8 ounces

The most common question that we receive is “How much pigment do I use 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 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 set up a little bit. Or, come back
through your project to “stir” it a little more.

Although our colorshift and ultrashift pigments will work in these applications, you
will not achieve the same color depicted in our pictures.

Peelable Automotive Coatings (Plasti Dip, HaloEFX, P1Coatings, Pro Line, Autoflex, Etc.) - 50 Grams Per Gallon

Standard Automotive Clears - 25 Grams Per Gallon

Appliance Paint And Coatings - 25 Grams Per Gallon

Architectural Coatings (Interior And Exterior) - 10-20% By Weight

Wall Paper And Other Architectural Paper Coatings - 1-5% By Weight


Peelable Coatings:
◦ The majority of our pigments can be sprayed through a 1.2 tip
◦ Be aware of the micron size. The larger the particle you may have to go to a larger tip.
◦ The pigments can be mixed with the base color or mixed into the clear and sprayed over the base color.
◦ The base color may impact the overall color of the pigment.
◦ Light colored pigments yellows, pinks, etc., we recommend using a white base or a like colored base. 
◦ Dark colored pigments, we recommend using a black or dark colored base


Automotive Paint:
◦ The majority of our pigments can and have been used for automotive.
◦ The majority of our pigments can be sprayed through a 1.2 tip
◦ Three ways to use our pigments for spraying:
◦ Mix directly into the base color to create a unique blend
◦ Mix and spray with your mid clear over the base color
◦ Mix and spray with your top coat. Typically we do not recommend this due to the possibilities of striping. Also, we use the top coat as a UV
protector or possible sanding of the top coat, etc.

STEP #1 - MIX YOUR POURING MEDIUM
3 parts Behr8300 Deep Base Interior/Exterior Hi-Gloss Enamel. 1 part JOSONJA Polyurethane Water Based Gloss Varnish. Mix gently folding paint and varnish together until they are completely mixed, Go Slow to reduce mixing bubbles.

STEP #2 - DISPERSING PIGMENTS INTO YOUR MEDIUM
Pour 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of JOSONJA Gloss Varnish into mixing container. Add around a teaspoon of Pigment (I generally add a little more) into your container with the JOSONJA. Mix until all Pigments have dissolved into a liquid making sure to stir any clumps out at this time.

STEP #3 - COMBINING YOUR POURING MEDIUM & DISPERSED PIGMENTS
Add around 3 Tablespoons of Pouring medium into your Dispersed Pigments. Mix thoroughly, being slow and folding rather than whipping, this will minimize the air bubbles.  

STEP #4 - WHAT IF?
◦ If your new mixed color seems to thick - Add a small amount of JOSONJA and stir until you reach the desired consistency.
◦ If your new mixed color seems to thin - Add a small amount of Behr8300 (ONLY) and stir until you reach the desired consistency.

I like this one best of 4 color shifts I bought. It reminds me of Australian opal in its coloration.

Oh my Goodness

I am so glad I don't live near Daytona anymore because I would be at this store every week. The color shift in this can only be truly appreciated in person, I bought the sample size, then the 25 gram size, now I am thinking wow after seeing the resin jewelry I made and already sold out of in this beautiful color, I will have to try another color, because you can't go wrong with any of the colors from Eye Candy. I can't wait to see next weeks feature color. I included a photo of all the pigments I used in the latest craft show, coasters also.

Mermaid-Like Kiji Colorshift

I recently had the pleasure of using Eye Candy Pigments, and I must say, they exceeded my expectations in every way. The colors are vibrant and true to the photos, with standout shades like Emerald Green and Senshi Red. They mix smoothly with various mediums, making them perfect for epoxy resin, acrylic paint, and more.

These pigments are easy to use, non-toxic, and cruelty-free, which is great for personal care products. Plus, the customer support is top-notch.

Overall, Eye Candy Pigments are a must-have for any crafter looking to add vibrant colors to their projects.
