Morning,

I intend to mix different coloured batches of Glass Cast together for pen blanks etc. In the past mixed colours I created using poly resins have blended together and muddied the result, so here's my question, how long would you leave coloured resins before mixing to get a good colour separation but a one piece cast, is it a time calculation, a temperature of the resin calculation or a mix of both, assuming room temperature between 20 and 30 degrees Celsius?

I appreciate getting to a B state would give defined lines, but I want to swirl and get a random mix of colours.

Second, if I wanted thin ribbons of resin, how long again to be in a usable state to fold and create a wave like pattern in a cast piece?

Thanks in advance

John
