Sparkle you add at the end.
Flakes are not a colourant — they are an accent. They stand out best where they reflect light: in a clear topcoat, on a dark base and in lacquer.
Resin — a sparkling accent
Stir into the base colour or sprinkle onto the surface of the pour. Large flakes reflect light from deep within the resin.
Topcoat & surfaces
Sprinkle into a clear topcoat or lacquer. Automotive quality: the flakes are resistant to UV and solvents.
Car paint & custom
Metallic sparkle for car paint and custom finishes — exactly where the flakes come from. Thanks to automotive quality, they hold up outdoors too.
Sprinkle, don't stir.
Because these are large flakes, they gradually sink to the bottom in a deep pour. That is why they are better suited to sprinkling on the surface, thin layers or a clear topcoat. You can add them to deeper pours too — just stir the mix gently while it gels.
Sapphire Flakes is one of 307 colours.
Pearls, colour-shifting chameleons, glow-in-the-dark pigments, neon UV, flakes and pastes — we stock the entire Eye Candy range, sorted into 13 effect series with a guide that helps you pick the right one.

Frequently asked questions
Do flakes sink in a deep pour?
Yes — they are large flakes, so in a deep pour they gradually sink to the bottom. Sprinkle them on the surface, use them in a thin layer or in a clear topcoat; you can add them to deeper pours if you stir the mix gently while it gels.
Where do flakes stand out most?
In a clear topcoat and on a dark base, where they reflect light. Thanks to automotive quality they are resistant to UV and solvents, so they also work great in car paint and on exterior surfaces.
Which resin is it suitable for?
In any epoxy resin. For crystal-clear castings in which the flakes stand out, we recommend the systems DIPON LuminaCast.
