Type: Tropical Blue Resin Pigment
Price: 9.00 - 28.00 (2 variants)

Colorkast Tropical Blue Pigment is a premium, "paste-style" resin colorant designed to capture the vibrant, high-saturation hues of a tropical lineup. This professional-grade colorant is engineered for surfboard glassing, offering a brilliant cyan-inspired blue that remains lightfast and UV-stable, resisting the "bleaching" common with lower-quality liquid dyes.

This colorant is highly adaptable: depending on the "color-load" added to your resin, you can achieve a transparent tint or a solid opaque pigment. When used as a Resin Tint, it creates a "colored glass" effect, allowing the natural foam texture and wood stringer to show through with a bright, turquoise-tinted depth. Increasing the color-load transforms the mixture into a deep Opaque Pigment, providing a bold, solid color-block that is ideal for high-visibility graphics or masking foam imperfections.

Colorkast paste-style colorants are highly concentrated and disperse easily in both polyester and epoxy resins, ensuring a streak-free, professional finish in the glassing bay.

Key Features:

Paste-Style Formula: Higher pigment concentration than liquid dyes with superior resistance to UV fading.

Vibrant Tropical Palette: Delivers a bright, energetic blue that stays true for the life of the board.

Versatile Transparency: Effortlessly transition from a light "bahama" tint to a deep, solid "tropical" pigment.

Professional Grade: Specifically formulated for the surfboard industry to ensure a consistent resin cure.

Resin Compatible: Works seamlessly with all standard laminating and surfacing resins.

Pro Tip: Tropical Blue is a very vibrant pigment. When mixing, add the paste in small increments to reach your desired saturation. For the cleanest look on an opaque lamination, pull your squeegee tight to the foam to ensure the color remains uniform and free of darker "resin pools."
