Colorkast Resin Colorant - Emerald Green Pigment (Paste-Style)

Colorkast Emerald Green Pigment is a premium, "paste-style" resin colorant designed for professional surfboard glassing. This deep, jewel-toned green offers a sophisticated and timeless aesthetic, ideal for classic logs, mid-lengths, and high-performance hulls. Unlike standard liquid dyes that can shift or fade toward a duller olive over time, Colorkast’s high-quality paste formula provides a vibrant, lightfast finish that maintains its rich character for the life of the board.

This colorant is engineered for absolute versatility: 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 stunning, translucent depth. Increasing the amount of paste transforms the mixture into a deep Opaque Pigment, providing a bold, solid color-block that is ideal for masking foam imperfections or creating high-contrast rail bands.

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

Key Features:

• Paste-Style Formula: Higher pigment concentration than liquid dyes with superior resistance to UV fading.
• Jewel-Toned Palette: Delivers a rich, deep Emerald Green that stays true even in high-UV environments.
• Variable Transparency: Effortlessly transition from a light "sea-glass" tint to a deep, solid "British Racing Green" pigment.
• Professional Grade: Specifically formulated for the surfboard industry to ensure a consistent resin cure and a high-gloss finish.
• Resin Compatible: Works seamlessly with all standard laminating and surfacing resins.

Pro Tip: Emerald Green is a dense, high-impact pigment. To achieve a perfectly flat opaque finish, ensure your resin is mixed thoroughly and your lamination is pulled tight to the foam. This prevents "mottling" or variations in color depth that can occur with thicker resin pools.
