Resin Colorants 101

Ready to color epoxy resin, urethane resin, crafts, castings & more?

Start Here

Learn about our flagship resin dye, Alumilite Dye. Alumilite Dye is a highly concentrated, liquid colorant designed for epoxy and urethane resins. It provides vibrant, consistent color with just a few drops, making it perfect for castings, river tables, turning blanks, jewelry, and countless other resin projects.

Explore Mica Powders

Discover the shimmer and sparkle of mica powder. Unlike dyes, mica powders create opaque, pearlescent effects that add depth and dimension to epoxy and urethane resins. They're perfect for geodes, river tables, tumblers, jewelry, castings, and any project where you want eye-catching metallic or color-shifting finishes.

Create Flowing Effects

Learn how to use alcohol inks to create bold, one-of-a-kind resin art. Alcohol inks produce vibrant, fluid patterns and unique cellular effects that are difficult to achieve with other colorants. They're ideal for petri dish art, abstract designs, coasters, jewelry, and other artistic resin projects.

Create Bold, Opaque Color

Discover the power of pigment pastes for rich, solid color with exceptional coverage. Pigment pastes are highly concentrated colorants that produce vibrant, opaque results in epoxy and urethane resins. They're ideal for river tables, countertops, castings, artwork, and any project where you want bold, consistent color that completely hides the resin beneath.
