Good Morning all,

I think I have seen this but now cannot find it. What are you guys using to tint epoxy, and do you need to apply it any differently when tinted?
Thanks in advance,
Frank

I get the tint from Larry at Raka. The application of the epoxy is the same as without the tint.
Remember the amount of tint you use in a batch of epoxy , any deviation from that amount does create a change (intensity) in the color.

Unlike paint if you get a scratch in the coat it will not peel of flake off. It is there for keeps. On the Swamp Girl I used three coats of the epoxy as a finishing coat with the tint in it after the boat was made.
