Pearlescent Liquid Pigments - Metallic Tint Polyurethane Epoxy

SHIMICOAT Metallic Pearlescent Pigments

For Special Effect Resurfacing Systems
SHIMICOAT Metallic Pearlescent Pigments are special effect pigments composed of mica nano-particles coated with various inorganic pigments to create metallic effects that mimic the natural look of stone and rock formations. These unique pigments are designed to be blended with SHIMICOAT 100% solids clear Epoxy resins. When the metallic particles are mixed with epoxy, they give the coating a shine that reflects light and creates eye-catching dramatic effects.

Metallic Pearl Liquid Pigments in Epoxy:
Metallic Pearlescent Pigments are commonly used in epoxy coating systems as the mid coat (second coat) over the primer/basecoat Epoxy. Your metallic pigments should be mixed with clear epoxy and installed over an epoxy tinted base coat. The most popular basecoats are Gun Metal and Pearl White.

Typically, people use black for base coat. If you’re just using the metallic Liquid pigments in a clear coat you need to put your coating on much thicker than normal rolling or brushing, in order to cover and achieve the desirable color. We normally recommend 500-1000micron Clear Topcoat, which consumes 500mL to 1Lt per sqm of resin. For example, 200mL container shall be added into 15 Liter of 100% solids epoxy to be enough for 15sqm of coverage of rich 1000µ per sqm.

Metallic Pearlescent Liquid Pigment can be used in floor coating, countertop resurfacing, wall paints, plastic molding, ink applications, arts and crafts. Always test your method of use before applying to your entire project.

SHIMICOAT Pearlescent Liquid Pigments being used globally to create unique stunning Polyurethane & Epoxy Resin designs. It is a great fun to play with these pigments and create your own unique and exotic colour combinations.

Composition of SHIMICOAT Pearlescent Liquid Pigments
SHIMICOAT Pearlescent Liquid Pigments contain the following mineral and inorganic compounds at different ratios for various colours and effects:
1. Mica “Potassium Aluminum Silicate (PAS)”
2. Titanium Dioxide (TiO2)
3. Selenium Dioxide (SnO2)
4. Ferric Iron Oxide (Fe2O

It contains 100% naturally occurring inorganic compounds in Epoxy Resin Matrix.

SHIMICOAT Pearlescent Pigment Liquids are composed of above metal oxide layers of moldy mica in epoxy resin matrix. Pearl pigments change the thin layer of metal oxide to produce different pearlescent effects. Compared with other pigments, pearlescent pigments have an unparalleled effect on the unique soft pearl luster. The special surface structure, high refractive index and good transparency make it the same effect as pearl in a transparent medium.

The excellent chemical and high temperature resistance of pearlescent pigments offers its potential for wide application in coatings, inks, plastics and many other fields. They provide a new color system and color quality for these products. SHIMICOAT Pearlescent pigments are low/nil in heavy metal and meet the safety standards to be used in many commercial and domestic applications. Both acid and alkali cannot attack pearlescent pigment at room temperature. SHIMICOAT Pearlescent Pigment cannot burn, is not self-igniting, is not conductive, and can withstand high temperatures of up to 140°C (284°F). Pearlescent pigments can also be used in reactive coatings for radiation curing systems (electron multiply curing, photocuring).

SHIMICOAT Pearlescent Liquid Pigments are one of our most versatile products that can be used to create your desirable metallic or pearlescent effect in many resin systems. The product may be used in acrylics, oils, printing inks, encaustics, alcohol inks, epoxy, glues, casting resins, clay, varnishes, etc.

Pearlescent Pigments are safe, inert pigment that exhibits extreme colorfastness and stability. The different particle sizes produce different effects, from a smooth pearly luster, to a highly metallic sheen.
