What Mediums Can You Mix Mica Powder With?

Mica pigments can be mixed with a wide range of media, including but not limited to acrylic pouring medium, epoxy resin, cosmetics, glass, clay, oil-based media, wax, soap, and acrylic paint.

Why Are Some of My Color Jars Not Full?

Rolio Mica Pigments are based on weight and not by volume. As density of pigments can cause a slight fluxation in volume, the jars need extra space to ensure that 10g of every pigment coloration will fit. Check out our pictures of density above.

Is Mica Powder Toxic?

Mica powder is non-toxic, and so it is popularly used in soap making and in the production of cosmetics. However, the FDA may have separate regulations for the other pigments sometimes used in mica pigments.

How Much Mica Powder Should You Add Per Gallon of Epoxy?

Rolio's mica pigments are highly concentrated so a little bit goes a long way. Using an amount of mica pigment equal to roughly 0.5% to 3% the total volume of epoxy is recommended. We recommend starting around 18g per gallon to start.

How Do I Achieve A Solid Epoxy Color With No Shimmer?

Mica Powders will naturally have a shimmer, as it is an earth mineral that has this effect. To achieve a solid opaque color in epoxy we recommend pigment paste, a resin based dye that will give your epoxy resin a solid color. Check out Rolio paste.
