Jacquard Pearl Ex Series 1: 12-Color Powdered Pigment Starter Set
Unlock a world of shimmering, metallic, and iridescent effects with the ultimate mica pigment collection. The Jacquard Pearl Ex Series 1 Set features 12 essential powdered pigments designed for professional artists and hobbyists alike. Available at SprayGunner, these inert, colorfast pigments are incredibly versatile—providing a brilliant, luminous finish that won't tarnish or fade like traditional metal powders.
Whether you are tinting epoxy resin, mixing custom airbrush paints, or detailing polymer clay, Pearl Ex pigments offer a stable and lightfast solution. Because they are not real metals, they can be safely mixed into almost any clear medium—including oils, acrylics, alcohol inks, and varnishes—without risk of oxidation.

Expert Tip for Customizers
To create a "Candy" effect on custom sneakers or models, mix the Interference colors from this set into a clear topcoat. When sprayed over a dark base color, the interference pigment will "flip" in the light, creating a professional color-shifting finish!
