DIY Resin Tub Pigments

DIY resin pigments are a popular choice for coloring resins in crafting projects, including creating tubs. These pigments come in various colors and are easily blendable into epoxy or polyurethane resins. Before adding pigments to the resin, carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper mixing and achieving the desired color. Always perform a color test on a small resin amount to ensure the final result meets your expectations.
