Mica Pigments

Product Description
E-Crete Mica pigment powder is a special effects additive to be added to stain or any of our sealers producing an interference color over dark or light colored micro topping.

Color range
There are 3 distinct types, metallic, iridescent and large particle sparkle or flash colors. It comes packed in qt. jars and the weights may vary slightly according to type.

Instructions for use
Though there are no cut and fast rules for the quantity to add usually a 5% by weight ratio works but less or more will control the intensity. It should be taken into account that the pigment does not dissolve but remains suspended in water based sealers. The addition to our EC100 powder will create an effect but care must be taken not to overload the mix making it too dry to apply. Always do a sample to see how it applies in the context in which you are using it.

Cautions
Though this product is not classified as a health danger use a dust mask and if mixing in a confined unventilated space use appropriate respiratory protection. (MSHA/NIOSH approved respirators are recommended.
