Product Description
Tru Tint RZ is a potent line of colorants designed to provide rich permanent colors with a variety of our high-performance resins such as our Epoxy HP, Essential Primer, Polykoat 85, AU 85, Acri-thane, and our line of acrylic sealers. They are designed to provide an opaque finish and used primarily with decorative media systems such as quartz, vinyl chips, and metallic pigments.
Loading of the pigment will vary depending on the chosen resin and the desired intensity. The pigment is packaged in 6 oz quantities, the amount required to tint a common 3-gallon epoxy kit to an opaque finish.
To use, first blend both your A and B components separately to make sure no separation has occurred. Then add the tint to the A-side of your kit and blend for one minute with a low-speed drill mixer and proper paddle. When combining both the A and B, mix again for two minutes before applying to the surface.
NOTE. Pigment opacity is based on loading. Epoxy is placed at 75-150 sq ft per gallon. If using in a sealer and applying at a thinner rate, for example, 300 sq ft per gallon, you will need twice the amount of pigment to achieve a similar opacity.
We called and talked to an informative person at this place to give us an overview of doing our garage floor. We had a friend with a grinder to clean up the top and then we were on our own. This review involves a few products. The Essential Primer, the Epoxy HP, Gray tint RZ and the Acrithane. The good news, it all worked great. The bad news, we have neighbors who want it now. It really was an easy process if you don’t panic. All the products did what we expected after we talked to them in detail. The Acrithane dried faster than we expected so it left lines. We just did another coat and it took care of it. Just be sure you have a few days in a row to do this type of project because it needs to be done in consecutive stages/days to work properly.
