INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
1. To begin, mix up a batch of ArtResin according to the instructions and pour into cups.

2. Select the ResinTint colours of your choice and shake well.

3. Squeeze as much ResinTint as you see fit into your resin filled cup. Squeeze in more ResinTint for a saturated colour and less for translucent colour.

4. Give it a good stir until all the pigment is evenly distributed, and then pour to your heart's content!

5. When you’re done pouring your ResinTint masterpiece, cover it up and wait 24 hrs until it's dry to the touch.

💡TIP:
Add white to your tinted resin mix for a more opaque result.

💡TIP:
It’s a good idea to stick to less than 6% ResinTint in your overall mixture to ensure your resin cures as expected.

💡TIP:
Try adding more than one colour per cup to create your own unique hues!

TILT AND FLOW:
Pour each colour onto your canvas, wherever you wish, then tilt the canvas back and forth to watch the colours flow together.

ArtResin is self levelling, meaning it will even out for a nice flat surface. If you don’t want the resin to flow too much, wait until the 35 minute mark after you’ve stirred as the curing will have made the mixture more viscous by then.

DIRTY POUR:
Yyou can combine a variety of well mixed, coloured resin in one container to dump out all at once for a surprise result!

WORKING IN WITH TRANSPARENCY:
You can add more colorant at any point in the process if you’d like a more saturated result, or if you need to make a colour adjustment. Likewise, working in some untinted clear resin will break up the colour, encouraging gradients and other beautiful effects to form.

POOL ON POOL:
You can experiment with pouring pools of colour onto more pools of colour. Or, let the piece cure and add a second layer that will sit on top for crisp borders where the colours do not integrate.

DRAWING WITH A TOOTHPICK:
Toothpicks and plastic forks make great drawing tools for ResinTint!
Have fun dragging one shade into the next and watch as the colours co-mingle before your eyes.

USING SILICONE OIL:
Add a couple of drops of silicone oil into your cup before your pour and watch the silicone repel the resin to create cells and other beautiful effects.
💡TIP:
Be aware that silicone oil may cause the resin to age prematurely.

SILICONE MOLDS:
Coloured resin doesn’t stop at canvases. Pour it into silicone molds for colourful 3D treasures that peel away with ease once cured!

MARBLING:
From flow art to float art, there’s more than one approach to making coloured resin! ResinTint is non-toxic and oil based so try floating it in a container of water and dipping your canvas or sculptural piece through the pigment, immersing it completely. Lift it out promptly and let it air dry. Once it has thoroughly dried, coat it with a layer of glossy ArtResin to protect it. Cover it and wait 24 hours until it's dry to the touch.

Have fun experimenting with ArtResin and ResinTint! Each piece is a one of a kind masterpiece!
