Usage Guidance
Mixing Ratio
Turbo is a 2:1 mixing ratio by weight, which means for every 100g of Part A, you need 50g of Part B. For example:
200g Part A : 100g Part B
When measuring in a measuring cup by ml the ratio to follow is slightly different. For every 100ml of Part A, you need 60ml of Part B. For example
200ml Part A: 120ml Part B
Go over to our Vista Resin Calculator which will do all the working out for you.
Once you've mixed your Part A and B thoroughly and there are no streaks of hardener visible, you can split the mix into 4 cups, and add your pigments. Small additions of pigment will give you a semi-transparent finish, larger additions of up to 0.2% will give a strong, opaque finish. Don't forget you're not limited to just the colours in the Transform-It Kits - you can lighten colours using Polar White, create darker shades using Raven Black, and even make your own metallic colours with the Metallic Booster.
Application Technique
Ideally before you apply your epoxy, its good practice to prime the surface you'll be working on. Vista Undercoat is ideal for this purpose - providing a good seal on almost any surface, and providing a key for your epoxy layer. If you apply epoxy directly to an unprepared surface you may have issues with air bubbles and possibly even serparation - where a surface will not adhere well to the epoxy creating uneven coverage.
Once your Vista Undercoat has cured fully (usually 24-48 hours) the epoxy layer can be applied. You can get some ideas on how to mix your colour combinatons from one of our Ambassadors or create your own effects.
After your epoxy layer has cured, we recommend applying Vista Duraseal - a water-based, scratch and UV resistant sealer, which is particularly useful for protecting epoxy from being scratched on tables and counter-tops. See a video on how to apply your Duraseal here.
