What Exactly Is Mica

Mica is a naturally occurring mineral that is relatively clear and shiny. It is also able to readily absorb dies and take on almost any color imaginable. When used as a pigment Mica will not dissolve. This allows it to stay suspended in a substrate like paint or epoxy to impart color. While most Eye Candy Pigments have a size of between 10 to 60 microns some colors such as Icicle and 14k Nugget Gold may have a larger particle size up to 700 microns. This is important to know if using Eye Candy Pigments in paints for spray applications. For epoxy projects these larger particle sizes allow the natural glimmer of the Mica particles to shine through.
