Diamond Sparkling Pigments

Premium Sparkling Pearlescent Pigment Powder based on Glass.
For Automotive, industrial and Craft applications. 
Add to Automotive Paints, Clear Paints, Resins and to almost any Clear Medium that will dry, cure or set. 
The transparent nature of the pigments makes them very different to typical glitter powders.
Cost effective pigment as addition rate is often only around 5g/Litre.

If you only add about 5g pigment per litre of resin or other clear medium then they will develop a subtle sparkle and not a colour effect as in the pictures. 

 

More about these Pigments

When searching for sparkle effects, glitter powders and pearlescent pigments based on mica are sometimes just not good enough. The highest quality sparkling pigments are pearlescent pigments based on glass. Unlike standard glitter powders, glass-based pigments are transparent and they are more transparent and uniform in colour and shape than pearlescent pigments based on mica. Glass-based Pearlescent Pigments are superior when it comes to creating a sparkle effect. Due to their transparent nature they vanish when not viewed at angles or lighting that generates a sparkle. This is in stark contrast to normal glitter powders tend to look like dirt specs when not sparkling. 

These Pigments do not create a solid colour. They are used specifically to create sparkle effects. The pictures show a high level of pigment in resin and hence an overall gold and silver colour can be seen. 

These pigments are lightfast (UV stable, non-fading) making them suitable for the most demanding automotive applications. 

You can buy these pigments individually here or in one of our Pearlescent Pigment Packs. In our Specialty Pigment Pack you get 10g of these pigments (Gold and Silver), three Colour Shift Pearlescent Pigments and Mica Based Glitter.

Unlike glitter, these pigments are free of plastic and thus better for the environment.

Our Gold colour is certified for cosmetic applications, including for use in lip products. It cannot be used in eye products due to the fairly large particle size.

How to Create Sparkle in Resin Art: (This short video demonstrates many products that can be used to create sparkle and explains why these Cosmetic Diamond Sparkle Pigments are the best in many applications).

 
Caution:
Avoid breathing dust from the pigments. Care should be taken not to breathe the dust (careful handling will reduce dust generation). Use a fabric dust mask that you can buy at any hardware store. If handling larger quantities (more than normal arts and crafts requirements) then a dust extraction system is required. 
 
Keep out of reach of children
All our products should be kept out of reach of children under 5 years and anybody who may tend to place items or liquids in their mouths should be supervised. Even packing can become a choking hazard.
