Eye Candy 50gr "Dark Ocean Blue" Mica Powder Pigments (Resin, Paint, Epoxy, Soaps, Nail Polish, Liquid Wraps)

Works great. A little goes a long way. I did my epoxy resin pour in layers over the course of 1 day. My table is 3 inches thick. The rotted hole I filled took 4 pours total. Every resin mix I did, was approximately 1 3/4 cups of resin, I added 2 teaspoon of the colored powder. 2 teaspoon was probably more than what I needed to do but thats what I did. But every rot is different in size so your project may require less or more. I did colored resin through the entire rotted hole. I could've done my first pour with clear resin, no color added but I did not plan on wanting to have extra powder sitting around for a long time before my next project. I still have a lot of powder left after I did 2 tabletop projects that had rot through the 3 inch slice. My next big project is a cedar slab that will be bar height. I will purchase more of this powder for it.I poured my blue resin from the top down which acheived the swirly look. My second table I poured from the bottom down, I had my table upside down and poured into the rot. The blue does not come out swirly this way after sanding and sealing. You can see in the pictures, the difference in the pouring technique. I personally like the swirl look better even though both tables came out looking great. I watched some videos on You Tube to learn how to do a resin table pour. But there were some things that I learned on my own while doing this. These tabletops are my first pour projects. They are both black walnut and I purchased them on EBay. So if you plan on doing a project, do pours in layers. Wait 4 or more hours, depending on if your previous pour feels tacky to the touch. If it's tacky, regardless of how many hours its been, do another layer. You want the temperature of the area where you are working to be 75 degrees or warmer for pouring projects. The resin won't cure properly if its too cold. If it's really warm, the resin will cure faster. So watch videos online. Do a sample piece that could be a tray just to get the technique right. But there are tons of videos out there to teach you how to do this. But look at my photos and see if you like the swirly look or the non swirly look. This was pure accidental, I thought pouring from the bottom of the table down would give me swirls but it did not. The upside down technique made my blue resin look boring and muted. I was not happy with it but my husband sanded the tables with different grit all the way up to 1500 grit sandpaper and the blue resin wasn't muted anymore and looks beautiful. We sealed our tables with Rubio Monocoat Pure color. This really brought out the black walnut color and also made the blue resin a bit more shinny. The Rubio Monocoat was the last step to our tables. I hope my review helps at least 1 person. I am not getting paid for my review. Sorry for any mispelled words.

Very little powder need to make a vibrant color. Easy to use and goes a long way.

The product mixes well and looks fantastic in my wood.

These pigments are quite nice. I use them for soap. They blend well, and give rich color. They're also a very good value for the price. I ran out of a particular shade of blue at a bad time and this jar really saved my batch.

My first live edge project. Haven't tried the black yet purchased at the same time.Dark Ocean blue from Eye Candy is great and takes very little to do the job.
