Mica Powder Additive
Mica Powder Additives are premium, finely milled mineral pigments designed to create metallic, pearlescent, and shimmering effects in epoxy resin systems. When mixed into clear, colored, or sand epoxy, mica powders disperse evenly to produce rich color depth, natural movement, and a durable decorative finish.
These additives are compatible with 2-part epoxy systems used for floor coatings, sand epoxy applications, and tabletop pours, offering consistent color performance without compromising epoxy workability when used within recommended dosage ranges.
