Description

A Bold, Industrial Finish With Dramatic Depth

Gunmetal Pigment delivers a striking, dark metallic finish with subtle iridescent shimmer — perfect for garages, commercial spaces, and any project calling for a bold, industrial look.

Why Choose Gunmetal Pigment

Mica-Based Formula — Premium nano-particle pigments create authentic pearlescent and iridescent effects

Bold, Industrial Aesthetic — Adds dramatic depth and a modern edge to any epoxy floor

Highly Concentrated — A little goes a long way for vivid, dramatic color

Works With Any Epoxy System — Field blends easily with our 100% solids clear epoxy binder

How to Use

Mix powder with resin first before adding hardener. For the most vivid and dynamic effects, use a minimum of 4 oz of pigment per gallon of epoxy (a 3-gallon batch requires approximately 12 oz). Apply your backdrop color first using one of our colored epoxy kits at least one day prior to starting the metallic process.

Coverage

Approximately 55–60 sq ft per gallon using a 1/8" x 1/8" rubber notch squeegee or magic trowel.

Steps to Transform Your Floors!

Surface Prep

Clean, degrease, and profile the bare concrete, then vacuum away all dust. The epoxy bonds to this surface.

Application

Spread the mixed epoxy evenly on the prepared floor to ensure a smooth base layer.

Encapsulation

Broadcast the decorative flakes into the wet epoxy, allowing them to sink in and create a vibrant finish.

Crossrolling

Use a roller to gently press and lock the flakes into the epoxy, ensuring they’re fully encapsulated and smooth.

Tori M. (5/5)

First time user, very pleased

"I had never used epoxy before. While the instructions on the website aren't the greatest, customer service was great with tips. We used this on an interior finished basement living area that flooded. While there's certainly a learning curve with epoxies, this stuff was great. The clear epoxy with the metallics are a bit harder to work with than the colored epoxy (I used three colors as a novice) due to math and mixing (you need 2 people!) but it was very forgiving. I didn't do anything artsy with it, I just poured out out in lines then pushed it around with the magic trowel and it looks so cool! I'm so happy with how it turned out."

Easy

"For my first room I did a lot of research and this brand had great reviews. So I gave it a try by myself and it turned out great. On our next room I would add more black powder for more of a marble look."
