Product detailed description
Vibrant Bronze. Copper / bronze with the sparkle of graded mica.
Vibrant Bronze is a beautiful sparkling bronze pigment with large and fine particles, ideal for a wide range of creative projects. This popular mica powder is a great choice for applications such as epoxy resin, jewellery making, woodworking and acrylic painting. Vibrant Bronze gives projects a rich, metallic bronze sheen that brings a luxurious and professional look.
One pigment, four crafts.
Mica doesn't argue with the material — the same jar colours epoxy, soap base, wax and lacquer.
Resin: river tables, jewellery, pen blanks
0.5–1 g/kg for a translucent effect, ~3 g/kg for a full pearl. 200-700 μm particles stay evenly dispersed in the mix.

First-class brass flakes — „This 'brass' addition is perfect for adding sparkle to any colour. I've been doing custom woodworking for over 40 years, making river tables from live-edge slabs — and discovering Eye Candy took my tables further.“
Daniel Smith
Amazing — „I've always loved how bronze and copper look in epoxy — and this colour raises the bar again. The bowl I'm working on blends beautifully with Akai Tsuki Red. Thanks!“

Frequently asked questions
How much pigment should I add to epoxy?
From our hands-on practice: 0.5–1 g per kg of mix for a translucent effect (river, sea water), ~3 g/kg for full colour, 5 g/kg for opaque coverage. Always mix it into a small amount of resin first, then into the rest.
Will the pigment sink in a deep pour?
Vibrant Bronze has 200-700 μm particles that stay evenly dispersed in the mix. Only coarse pigments with 200–700 μm particles (e.g. flakes) can sink — letting the resin thicken slightly or stirring the mix during the process helps.
Which resin is it suitable for?
Any epoxy resin. For crystal-clear castings in which the pearl stands out, we recommend the systems DIPON LuminaCast — Ocean Flow for river tables, Gem Flow for jewellery.
Does Vibrant Bronze glow in the dark?
No — it is a classic pearl (Solid Pearl). If you are looking for a glow effect, go for the series Glow in the dark, and for a glow under a UV lamp, for the Neon UV series.
