Hey man, tints are translucent e.g. you can see the stringer/ foam underneath

pigments are just the opposite and arent translucent, e.g. opaque (cant see the stringer) neither is better just depends on the look you are going for with your board. At my local surf supply they supply way more tint colour options than pigments.
