The 30-Piece Sample Pack contains 30 colors in 5-gram quantities, ideal for testing effects and finding favorite shades. The 50-gram single-color size is better for projects requiring a consistent supply of one color.

Mica pigments are generally considered non-toxic, but it is good practice to avoid inhaling fine powder dust during mixing. Work in a ventilated area and consider wearing a dust mask when handling dry pigment powder.

Mica powders do not typically affect epoxy cure chemistry when used at normal concentrations. However, always follow the epoxy manufacturer's instructions and test small batches when working with a new product or pigment combination.

Yes. Dry mica powder can be rubbed onto wood, paint, or a tacky finish to add metallic shimmer as a surface effect. Seal with a compatible clear topcoat afterward to lock in the powder and prevent it from rubbing off.
