Thank you for showing us what you can accomplish with the different types of tinting techniques. There's so many ways to do projects, it's hard to decide which one. When you're just starting out it's mind boggling.

Loved this video!! Terrific tips and tricks for using and combining. I have to say - the best VISUAL is the split screen comparison as well as the diagonal pan at the end. As one who uses for artistic pieces more than countertops - those views really made me think differently about the products and HOW I could utilize them. Thank you Rhonda and Kenny!! Would LOVE sample board examples of each product line - just like the diagonal views for each of the colorant categories on the SCC page - would be SO helpful!!

I am new to resin and recently purchased my supplies from Stone Coat Countertop, I was informed that they are no longer carrying the base tint. The agent didn’t know the reason for this, but suggested I purchase undercoat paint instead. Can I pour this product directly into the resin as you do with the base tint. I was quite confused by the conversation with the agent at SCC, he just kept saying, “I don’t know, “ to all my questions. Thanks in advance for your response.

Any recommendations on the ratios associated to the SCC epoxy and the Mica Powders? I understand it somewhat a personal choice... but any guidelines on how much a epoxy each SCC Mica Powder packet would make?
@RK3Designs
@RK3Designs 5 жыл бұрын
Hey Steve, I personally use 1/2 bag (.25 oz.) of mica powder to 8 oz. of 91% Isopropyl alcohol in my spray bottles. As far as mixing them into the epoxy as a tint. That is more or less dependent on what look you're going for and how opaque you are wanting it. A bag of mica will easily do a 2 gallon kit of epoxy for most finishes. Hope this helped just a little!
