Fluorescent Purple Beaver Dust Pigment is a bright neon mica powder made for epoxy resin, resin art, woodworking projects, candles, soap making, and craft applications where you want a bold purple colour with a fluorescent effect. It is part of the Beaver Dust fluorescent pigment line, designed to look vibrant under normal lighting and show its strongest effect under a black light.
This neon pigment is a great choice when you want a purple mica powder that feels brighter and more energetic than a standard purple. Use it for black light projects, colourful resin pours, epoxy accents, coasters, trays, inlays, and craft projects that need a strong neon mica look.
Best Uses for Fluorescent Purple Neon Mica Powder
- Epoxy resin art and fluid pours
- River tables, resin inlays, and woodworking projects
- Black light projects where a fluorescent purple effect is desired
- Neon mica resin designs, colourful accents, and high-contrast pours
- Epoxy coasters, trays, charcuterie boards, and decorative resin accents
- Candle making, soap making, and general craft projects
Why Beaver Dust Pigments Are Different
Beaver Dust Pigments are made with fine particles under 60 microns. This smaller particle size helps the pigment mix smoothly into epoxy and stay suspended while the resin cures, instead of settling to the bottom like some larger or heavier pigment particles can.
Fluorescent Purple is especially useful when you want a bright neon pigment that remains visible throughout cured resin. Use a small amount for a softer purple shimmer, or increase the amount for a stronger, brighter neon mica powder effect.
Suggested Projects
- Neon resin art: Use Fluorescent Purple in abstract pours, geode-style artwork, wall art, and colourful epoxy designs.
- Black light projects: Add this pigment to pieces that will be viewed under UV or black light for maximum fluorescent effect.
- Epoxy coasters and trays: Create bold handmade pieces with a bright purple colour that stands out.
- River tables and resin inlays: Use as a vivid purple accent in clear, black, white, blue, pink, or metallic epoxy pours.
- Candles and soap: Test in your own wax or soap base to dial in the colour strength and final look you want.
How Much Pigment Should You Use?
A good starting point is approximately 1/2 teaspoon of pigment per 1 litre of epoxy. You can adjust from there depending on the colour strength, opacity, shimmer, and depth of pour you are trying to achieve.
For smaller batches, start with a small amount, mix thoroughly, and add more gradually. This gives you better control over the final colour and helps avoid adding more pigment than your epoxy project needs.
