So I got my first order of resin and I have done a few pours playing with the different dyes I got both from Mr. fiberglass and some from artstuff.com I have been very happy with the blanks that I have produced they have turned great and I cant believe how aggressive I have been able to get with this stuff. I have turned other pr that I had to be very careful with or I would have major blowouts. Not sure of the difference between what I have poured and others that I have turned but I am definitely happy.
Now my question. I tried doing a swirling pattern with blue and gold with the blue being the bulk color and then swirling in the gold when the cast was done all the gold settled to the bottom. Can the type of dye used make a difference? The blue was a paste type dye and the gold was a powder. Do I need to add the catalyst first and wait for the resin to start to set up and then pour? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Shane
