What type of colorant can be used with the product - is the resin considered a polyester resin. The product details are not very precise.

For coloring the resin I have used Custom 4 Coloring Kit for Epoxy Gluing or Repairing of Granite,... Sold by: GRANITE POLISHING PADS You can order this item from amazon. The dye is very efficient and seems to work very well with the resin. Yes this epoxy appears to be some sort of polyester. As soon as u add the hardener the epoxy hardens fast but it gives you enough time work with. My results were very good although didn't polished it yet. Good luck

This thing is pure synthetic material I'm not sure I understand your question! it's all about chemicals here --- nothing about polyester is fire retardant ---- this is pure plastic at it's finest and yes I've checked it burns quite happily so (no fire retarding processes here)

If you are screen printing onto polyester fabrics, make sure you use a plastisol-based ink, not a water-based ink. Any good screen printing service should do this.

The smaller sizes are not treated w/flame retardants. Polyester is a natural flame retardant w/o using chemicals. Hope this helps.

Not sure about staining since I am careful regarding what comes into contact with the treated surface. My advice would be to remember that this is simply a type of paint. If something will stain or damage paint, odds are that it will also damage duplicolor shadow. Another option is to contact Dupli Color with your question.

It's %100 polyester and you can burn them to make fabric flower appliqus. I also sell ready to use satin, organza,chiffon,lace, felt circles and sew on rhinestones which goes with them. You can check www.iloveyoyodiyflowers.etsy.com Best Nil

I apologize but i have not used it. I will check tomorrow night (won't behome tonight) to see if there is a recipe. I used it for a prop at a party that was a carnival theme.

Your choice lacquer, or poly. You could probally use tru oil but I have not tried that.

Yes. I'm quite sure K2r will not damage polyester. It's best for greasy stains and can be used on fabrics as delicate a silk. I think the only way to damage polyester is with fire! LOL! Best wishes!

Most manmade fibers such as polyester and acrylic and nylon are very stain-resistant, and if these brushes use a water-based stain (which I assume they do since other reviews have said that they will bleed if used next to damp acrylic paint), the chances of them adhering to polyester seem pretty low. In fact, the ONLY dye which will affect polyester is what is called a "disperse dye". This is not it.

Yes. Up to 3 ounces of color can be added. Go to a paint store and have them treat it as a tint base.

Yes, you can use standard or jell food coloring. Either one should give you good results.

I used nail polish to give it an interesting coloring. Do not use food coloring or acrylic paint. The reaction is really bad.

It has a very fine almost plastic/laminate like finish. It would be best to ask at your local paint store which product will work best. My recommendation would be to rough the finish up with a fine sandpaper, clean the dust off, then use a good primer before painting it. I have tried painting similar products with an all in one primer/paint and had really poor results (weak adhesion), hence the separate primer suggestion.

I've only ever mixed it with resin which turn out quite well, i do have a paint product as well which i discovered is simply the powder in a translucent once dry paint but the powder was gritty not dissolved in the paint which is how I found out, so I'm not sure if it would actually disolve, though you have my interest, I make fairies that glow and a snow globe type of trinket would be very interesting, I believe I will do some mixing this afternoon and relate my findings

There are a number of interesting you tube videos that are very helpful. However, the color and the type of fabric that you are dying is critical. The closer that the fabric that you are dying is too 100 % natural fibers, like cotton or linen, the better the dye will take. The closer the color is the white the better it will take. I doubt that you can dye polyester. I think that the faded levis that I dyed are a good example. After dying, the blue part of the levi looked blue, but the white parts (these were very faded) on the seams etc. were almost as dark as the blue parts. The inside part of the pockets (white, but not cotton) came out a faded light blue and the orange stitching looked very orange. I hadn't even realized that the levis had orange stitching.
