For high-end natural stone and concrete installations where visible adhesive lines can ruin the finish, Megapoxy Pigment Paste provides a direct way to colour-match Megapoxy resins. This epoxy-based paste blends into the adhesive system to make structural joins, repairs, and laminations disappear into the surrounding substrate.
Megapoxy Pigment Paste is formulated with a soft, creamy consistency that disperses evenly into Megapoxy resins without altering the curing chemistry of the host adhesive. Because it is highly concentrated with a high pigment loading, you only need to add small quantities to achieve full, opaque colour. Being epoxy-based, solvent-free, and non-flammable, it maintains the structural integrity of the bond on heavy stone slabs and structural concrete joints.
Standard colours are supplied in 500g resealable containers and include Beige, Red, Yellow, Brown, Green, Black, White, and Grey.
For projects requiring precise architectural colour control, Megapoxy Pigment Paste can be manufactured to match any colour represented in Australian Standard 2700 "Colour Standards for General Purposes". Custom colours require a minimum order quantity of 30kg.
This pigment paste is specifically formulated for tinting epoxy systems, primarily Megapoxy resins. Its epoxy resin base ensures compatibility and consistent colour integration without compromising the host resin's performance. Using it with non-epoxy resins is not recommended as it may lead to performance issues.
Megapoxy Pigment Paste is a hazardous chemical and requires strict safety measures. Always wear safety shoes, nitrile gloves, and safety glasses. Ensure adequate ventilation and wash hands thoroughly after handling to prevent skin irritation or allergic reactions. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet for full details.
Megapoxy Pigment Paste is designed to integrate without compromising epoxy performance when used as directed. It contains an epoxy resin base, ensuring chemical compatibility. Over-pigmenting or using incompatible pigments can interfere with cure and mechanical properties, so follow specific Megapoxy system guidelines for tinting ratios.
This product is classified as toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects. Avoid release to the environment. Proper disposal according to local regulations is essential to prevent environmental contamination. It is also a Marine Pollutant.
