How to colour epoxy resin fluorescent yellow
1
Stir the jar
Give the paste a stir first, because pigment can settle between uses.
2
Combine resin and hardener
Measure both parts at the correct ratio and mix them fully before any colour goes in.
3
Add colour gradually
Begin at around 2% and build up, stopping at 5%. Colour is easy to add and impossible to remove.
4
Blend until streak-free
Keep mixing, scraping the sides and base of the cup, until there are no streaks.
5
Pour and check under UV
Pour as normal. Once cured, view the piece under a black light to see it glow.
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.
Fluorescent paste vs other colourants
vs glow in the dark powder
Fluorescent paste glows while a black light is on it. Glow in the dark powder charges in light and then glows by itself in the dark. Choose Fluorescent UV Lemon Yellow for black light effects.
vs mica powder
Mica powder gives shimmer but does not react to black light. Fluorescent paste gives bright colour in daylight and a glow under UV.
vs acrylic paint
Acrylic paint carries water into the mix, which can stop resin curing properly. Fluorescent paste is made for resin.
Safety & storage

A mask and protective wear must be worn at all times.
Ventilation
Use in a well-ventilated area only.
Storage

Before each use
Stir the paste, because pigment can settle between uses.
