Info
Bright Yellow epoxy pigment paste turns clear epoxy resin into a bright, solid yellow. It is a highly concentrated, lightfast yellow pigment in a 30mL jar, and it disperses easily in epoxy resin and in Solid Cast 660 Polyurethane Casting Resin. Use it for sunny accents in resin art, solid yellow castings and bold feature pours. Add 2–5% to your mixed resin. A little goes a long way.

What Bright Yellow does in resin
Sun, sand and floral accents
Bright Yellow suits sunsets, flowers, bees and beach scenes, and it lifts any palette that needs a warm highlight.
Solid yellow castings
Dose close to 5% for a strong, solid yellow in moulds, coasters, keyrings and trays.
Feature pours and river tables
Pour a bold yellow river or a feature inlay in River Resin Deep Cast Epoxy. Test on an offcut first, because the timber colour changes how the yellow reads.

How to colour epoxy resin yellow
1
Stir the paste
Pigment can settle in the jar over time, so stir it before each use.
2
Mix your resin first
Measure your resin and hardener at the correct ratio and mix them thoroughly before adding any colour.
3
Add the paste a little at a time
Start at about 2% and work up to 5% at most. You can always add more, but you can't take colour out.
4
Mix until even
Mix until the colour is completely even, scraping the sides and base of the cup.
5
Pour
Pour as normal. Viscosity varies from colour to colour across the range because each pigment is different.
Stay within 5%. Too much pigment can leave the resin soft or tacky.
FAQs
Not suitable for UV resin. Epoxy pigment paste is not designed for UV resin.
Pigment paste vs other colourants
vs mica powder
Pigment paste gives a solid, flat colour. Mica powder gives a pearly shimmer rather than a flat colour. Choose paste when you want strong, even colour.
vs alcohol ink
Alcohol inks give transparent colour and are known to fade in sunlight. Bright Yellow is a solid colour made with lightfast pigment.
vs acrylic paint
Acrylic paint contains water, which can interfere with curing and leave streaks. Pigment paste is made to mix into resin.
Safety & storage
Protection
A mask and protective wear must be worn at all times.
Ventilation
Use in a well-ventilated area only.
Storage
Store the jar sealed, in a cool place away from direct sunlight.
Before each use
Stir the paste, because pigment can settle in the jar.
