What product do you use to tint epoxy?

You can add up to ounce of `universal' type tints to each kit to make the epoxy into lighter and pastel colors. Universal Paint Tints are a liquid universal coloring system that can be mixed with oil or water-based paints. Since the epoxy is bright white, it cannot be made into dark colors since the base is white. These universal tints are available at paint stores. It is recommended that you have the paint store add the tint to the Part A (Color Component) before mixing with Part B (Epoxy Hardener). If you are using more than one kit, I would suggest mixing all Part A's together tinting before mixing with Part B (just keep mix ratio the same). Have the paint store mix in tint and put on paint shaker for even distribution. There will probably be a small fee for this.

You're can use a blow dryer to heat the tint as you put it on. And you'll need something to smooth it on there. I would recommend you have someone that's done it before do it. It's hard to do it nicely if you've never done it.

Use Plasti Dip Glossifier after painting for a gloss finish. The more Glossifier the more high gloss shine.

Bring it to any paint store that carries Rust-Oleum, such as Home Depot. That's where I took it. You pick one of the the 'light' color, and they should be able to tint it for a very small fee, if not free. Good luck.

It would be best to use the automotive goop for glass. I used the household goop on glass and it leaves a stain. Hope this helps.

A contrarian here. .. If I was filling a very narrow crack or shallow crack, I would use CA glue (red label, thin) . Anything else and I would use epoxy, you get more working time and I think a clearer matrix for the work. Inlay with with turquoise implies a larger void and I would think epoxy is easiest. There are 2 other viscosities CA glue that might work as well... medium and thick. .. yellow and green label for hot stuff.

What I did instead of trying to peel the actuall tint cut out get the extra on the sides of once you do that with a bottle with sope and water starts peeling and spraying it

The Solarez Polyester Gloss is a UV-protected (weatherable) finish. It is the easiest to sand and bring to a lustre. On an epoxy board, if you used a non-cycloaliphatic epoxy, the polyester would not be good. You'd need an intermediary layer of our vinyl ester epoxy, which is compatible with both epoxy and polyester

This is a great product, but not a stain. It would produce a slight tint. I would recommend a stain marker to touchup gouges.

Part 1 epoxy with part 2 hardener. It might work, but I don't think this would be the best product for sheets of fiberglass.

I have used this on both plastic and glass lights. Ive also tested it on chrome both metal and plastic dipped. Tested it on an old door window from a car and it worked well. When using it on chrome or glass be sure to put very lite coats and i recommend a clear coat for long lasting shine. Duplicolor clear works very good. Hope this helped

I use 2 part epoxy. Mix the color in the resin before mixing in the Hardner. Make sure to use equal parts of resin and hardner.

Go to an auto body paint store and get tint from them usually it is free. It works great on a boat. Just make sure you clean well and scuff sand. Both aluminum boats and over gelcoat/fiberglass. I live in florida and i have done 1 truckbed and 7 boats with this product. All of my customers have been extremely happy with the end results. Just make sure to pull tape when its still wet and give ample drying time. Its best to mix all parts in a paint bucket, clean one of the containers and fill that one to use to avoid color mismatching. Best of luck.

If you've got a jug of it use it. Windex has been the standard for years. Invisible Glass is better because it doesn't streak but with a little extra elbow grease Windex will do a good job.

A plastic welding epoxy putty would work better if it is a crack in the plastic.You would want to roughen up and then clean the area first before you seal it over.

The tint is based on how thick you apply the second step that looks like stain the longer you leave it before wiping it off the darker it gets, also make sure you apply the base coat completly and evenly,this will help.

Since the top coat (or final finish) is an epoxy-type solution that was supplied with your kit, it probably won't hold up long enough with the proper consistency to be applied at some later time. Check with Rust-Oleum though; but my feeling is that you'll probably need to purchase more of the compound to get the finish that you want.
