I have done a number of epoxy resin tints on PU blanks with great sucess. Alas, my luck has run out and I didn’t mix in enough tint. The result isn’t terrible, just not right. The color is a light aqua, but I was really hoping for more of a medium green tint. Is there anything I can do at this point to alter the color, or am I stuck with the color I have? I read up on tinting the hotcoat, but it sounds like that is a streaky nightmare. I would like to use basically the same color that is on the board, just make it darker. Any advice is appreciated! jb
Same color, darker, and one more layer of cloth (2 OZ, for instance, if you don’t want to add too much weight). This will yield an even color that cannot be achieved with a tinted hot-coat.
Good advice from blasa. But I like the streaky look… another effect entirely.
