This question comes from Nancy:

hi, i am from lebanon. i like your sight a lot. i bought some resin crystal which means transparent and i added acrylic paint but it wasnot clear,it became opaque when it was hard. i want to make a table made from a tree trunk and around the trunk i want to make like a tourqouise shore with sea stones at the bottom but i want the resin to be transparent aqua color. so can you help me with that please. maybe acrylic paint is not the proper one,i donot know really. hope to hear from you soon. thanks

Hi Nancy,

Acrylic paints generally impart an opaque color when used in resin. I would recommend one of our transparent resin colors. The Resin Obsession colors should do well for you: https://shop.resinobsession.com/collections/colorants/products/resin-obsession-transparent-color-pigments-single-1-ounce-colors Otherwise, alcohol inks would likely do well for you too. Unfortunately though, due to shipping restrictions, we cannot ship them to you in Lebanon.
