Midori Green is a Green based pigment and part of our Glow Series line.

Expose the Glow in the Dark pigments to light in order to charge the pigments.

GLOW TIME PER CHARGE - Unlike other brands, our Glow in the Dark pigments should last 8-10 hours per charge.

Mixing other pigments with the Glow in the Dark pigments will work BUT they will significantly decrease the ability to glow.

Compared to normal pigments, Glow in the Dark pigments have a heavier density and requires a smaller jar which may make it appear there's less.

Glow in the Dark mica powder is ideal for DIY craft use, such as, epoxy, resin, woodworking, pen blanks, plastics, slime, watercolors, cosmetics, fishing lures, bath bombs, jewelry, melt and pour, acrylic, polish, candle making, and MUCH more.

Are you having a difficult time mixing the pigments or just find yourself stirring and stirring? Or even worse, finding tiny specs in your finished product? This is mostly the cause of not mixing and breaking down the pigment enough.

Due to the granular nature of specialty pigments such as neons, glow in the dark, etc. these pigments are typically a little more difficult mix and breakdown.

If this is the case, place the pigments in a small cup, use denatured alcohol and wet the pigments, stir until it has a consistency of a paste. Stir until they break down.

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 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.

Due to the granular nature of specialty pigments such as neons, glow in the dark, etc. these pigments are typically a little more difficult mix and breakdown.

If this is the case, place the pigments in a small cup, use denatured alcohol and wet the pigments, stir until it has a consistency of a paste. Stir until they break down.

Cold process - 2 tsp per lb of oils

Hot process - ½ tsp lb of MP base

DO NOT USE! Glow pigments are not recommended for automotive use because they have low UV resistance. This means that when exposed to sunlight for extended periods, the pigments may fade or lose their vibrancy over time. UV rays can cause the colors to deteriorate, which is why these pigments are best used in applications that are not subject to prolonged sunlight exposure.

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.

This Glow in the Dark Powder Works Great!

I make these funny bottles I call Swirlys. When shaken they make patterns inside the bottle from a "secret ingredient" I add to water and food coloring. For years I tried to make them glow to a blowing defeat every time. Whatever I tried to use just sunk to the bottom so fast it just did not work. Now for the first time at this years Christmas fair in Berkeley CA I am going to bring out several Glow in the Dark colors. For my purposes there cannot be much pigment but out of the 11 colors and the ones that I have tried, I found that 5 work really well. I still have more to try but this is what the Midori Green looks like in full glow. You do need a led black light to charge it up but those are only five bucks on Amazon. I only used a few scoops with the stick that came with it. Unfortunately the "effect" is very hard to see but in person it is amazing! Thank you for helping me bring to creation something I saw in my head for over two decades!

Glows so bright, and an awesome color by itself

This stuff is fantastic. Easy to use right out of the jar (I guessed at how much to add, a little at a time) with no clumps or weirdness once it was stirred in to my resin.I used this to mold some parts for a 3d printed model kit after some horrible experiments with glow-in-the-dark paint. I’d never made a silicone mold or cast resin before, and I’m really happy with the results.The green (both glowing and not) is exactly as the photos, and in both situations it is bright!Did not impact the curing of my resin at all.I have another project coming up and will be trying a different color from this company.

Lime green in sunlight...

Would prefer that the green color be a little darker, but I'm using this in a method that doesn't allow for full saturation of color. Definitely glows in the dark, zapped it with a black light for 10 seconds and my product could almost be used as a flashlight.
