SnowWhite is the epoxy we would recommend if you are looking for an opaque white finish. SnowWhite is pre-blended, has an extremely low odor, and cures to a 100% solid. With its faster pour to finish time, if offer great value for money.
Compared to adding pigments to a clear epoxy, using SnowWhite produces a much better vibrancy that is more evenly blended and more cost-effective than buying clear epoxy and white pigments. With the pre-blended formula, the pour to finish time is reduced which leads to increased productivity. Time is money.
SnowWhite consists of fillers and extra white pigments suspended in epoxy resin which are blended thoroughly, allowing for a uniform and incredibly brilliant white finish - between pour, and between projects.
SnowWhite mixes easily and has extremely low order, making it a perfect solution if you are looking for an even opaque white color for your next project.
SnowWhite can be easily worked using the same tools you would use when woodworking. It can be sanded, shaped, drilled, tapped, machined, and routered and will remain tough and durable for life. It will adhere and create a very strong bond with the surface it’s applied to.
2:1 by volume (3.1 : 1 by weight)
½" - 1 ½" per Layer. Maximum recommended pour depth of 1.5”. Not recommended for pours less than ½” depth
20 - 25º C (68 - 77º F)
5 hours
14 - 24 hours*
24 hours
48 hours, sandable a day later
7 days
Isopropyl/ denatured alcohol or soapy water
15 - 25º C (59 - 77º F) with tightly sealed lids.
* During this time, a second pour can be done without the need to abrade the surface. Additional preparation is required if more than 24 hours have elapsed from the time of mixing. Lightly sand the entire surface with 220 girt sandpaper until glossy finish has been removed. Remove all sanding dust and wipe down the entire surface with isopropyl or denatured alcohol to remove contaminants.
Note: Processing times mentioned here are based on 1.5" deep casting, they may vay depending on the temperature, humidity, and pour depth.
SnowWhite will cure more rapidly if left in pail. Have your mold ready, and pour epoxy immediately after mixing. Mold must be sealed thoroughly to avoid blowouts. Epoxy will flow like water, and can escape through even the smallest cracks.
Mix resin and hardener separately for 30 seconds. In a clean, dry container; combine resin with hardener, and mix thoroughly for 2 minutes. Here are the mixing ratios:
- by volume: 2 : 1
- by weight 3.1 : 1
Although pigments can be added, the effects will be very limited. For instance, if you were to add black to this rich white the best you’ll get is grey. Additionally, if you were to add in metallics, they will all turn white as the formulation of SnowWhite would overpower the metallics' effects.
Between 14 - 24 hours providing the previous layer is firm but still tacky to touch. During this time, a second pour can be done without the need to abrade the surface. Additional preparation is required if more than 24 hours have elapsed from the time of mixing. Lightly sand the entire surface with 220 girt sandpaper until glossy finish has been removed. Remove all sanding dust and wipe down the entire surface with isopropyl or denatured alcohol to remove contaminants. Once tack-free it is necessary to sand between layers to ensure proper adhesion.
15 - 25º C (59 - 77º F) with tightly sealed lids.
Epoxy has a shelf life of about 2 years providing it is properly stored in sealed containers.
