Pearl Ex Powdered Pigments are very fine powdered mica pigments that are non-toxic,
inert, and can be mixed into virtually any viscous, transparent medium and applied to any surface! Since they are not metals, they will never rust or tarnish. The variety of finishes Pearl Ex can produce is nearly endless—from metallic sheens to pearlescent shimmers to all manner of faux finishes.
Pearl Ex can be added to
silk painting resists, to silk screening paints, to airbrush inks, to oil
paints, whatever. You can transform plain clay into luminous art objects and
ordinary candles into poured metallic-looking antique candles. You can also add it to glue or use our new, tacky when dried, Jones Tones Foil Glue - see the silver swirly pattern above. You can stamp the glue on with a rubber stamp or apply it with a gutta applicator bottle, let it dry, then apply Pearl Ex, kind of rubbing it into the glue and removing the excess.

The fact is no one knows all the ways one can use this stuff!
The first 8 colors are the Standard Colors. The next 16 colors are Metallic Colors with various particle sizes.
Different particle sizes give different effects.
Then there are 5 Interference Colors which can't be described as they appear
differently depending how you use them. (Try adding some to clear resist for an
out-of-body experience). The next 3 colors are Duo Colors which change color
depending on the light angle. The last 8 colors are the Fashion Colors.
Some things can't be adequately described. You have to take a chance!
3/4 ounce jars of standard colors
1/2 ounce jars of Duo and Interference
Colors
Use our Neopaque Clear Extender or Gum Arabic as a base to mix with the pigments, or any
clear medium. Try them with a poly-urethane and paint walls and furniture. How
'bout your car?
