When using mica powder in deep pour epoxy, like our Liquid Glass Deep Pour Epoxy, it’s essential to manage the timing for swirling to achieve the desired visual effect.

Since mica powder tends to settle at the bottom of the pour, it’s best to return to the project once the epoxy has reached a gel-like consistency, similar to honey. This usually occurs around 8-12 hours after pouring, depending on the product and environmental conditions.

At this stage, you can carefully reswirl the mica powder using a stir stick or the butt-end of a paintbrush. This method helps redistribute the mica throughout the epoxy, creating a more evenly dispersed and visually appealing effect.

It’s crucial to do this gently to avoid introducing air bubbles or disturbing the epoxy’s curing process. Timing and a delicate touch are key to achieving the best results with mica powder in deep pour epoxy applications.
