Jacquard Pearl Ex Series 3 Pigment Set 12 Colors ā Powdered Mica Pigments for Resin, Clay, Paint, and Mixed Media
Jacquard Pearl Ex Series 3 Pigment Set 12 Colors (SKU F-JAC0614 / UPC 743772061403) is a curated powdered mica pigment set made for artists, resin creators, clay artists, model builders, sneaker customizers, craft users, and mixed-media makers who want pearlescent, metallic, duo-tone, and color-shift effects in one compact set.
This Series 3 set includes twelve 0.11 oz (3 g) jars of dry Pearl Ex pigments with a balanced mix of modern tones, soft pastels, deeper neutrals, warm metallics, and shifting effects. These pigments can be mixed into many compatible mediums, including resin, varnish, acrylic mediums, glazes, clay, inks, and other craft applications. Unlike real metal powders, Pearl Ex pigments create a brilliant light-reactive finish without tarnishing, rusting, or oxidizing.
Because Jacquard Pearl Ex Series 3 Pigment Set 12 Colors is not a pre-mixed paint, it gives you more control over the final result. Add a small amount for a soft pearl glow, use more pigment for a stronger metallic look, or layer the interference and duo-tone colors over dark bases to create dramatic color-shift effects for resin art, polymer clay, custom painting, model detailing, craft projects, and decorative surfaces.

How to Use Pearl Ex Pigments
- Choose the right medium: Pearl Ex pigments need to be mixed with a binder or compatible medium for permanent adhesion. They are pigments, not finished paint by themselves.
- Start with a small amount: These powdered pigments are concentrated. Add a little pigment first, mix thoroughly, then increase the amount only if you need stronger shimmer or color.
- Test before final use: Always test the pigment mixture on a sample surface before applying it to your finished resin, clay, model, sneaker, craft, or art project.
- Use dark bases for duo-tone effects: Duo Blue-Green and other shifting tones usually look stronger over dark or black base colors.
- Use light bases for softer pearl effects: Pearl White, Sky Blue, Salmon Pink, Grey Lavender, and Pink Gold can create softer shimmer effects over light surfaces.
- Seal when needed: For dry-brushed or surface-applied effects, seal the finished work with a compatible clear coat or varnish after testing.
- Clean tools after mixing: Wipe brushes, mixing sticks, cups, and airbrush tools before the binder or medium dries.
SprayGunner Pro Tips
- For resin work: Add pigment slowly. Too much powder can make resin cloudy or change how the final pour looks.
- For airbrush effects: Do not spray dry pigment by itself. Mix it into a compatible airbrush-ready clear medium, strain if needed, and test flow before spraying.
- For stronger contrast: Apply Duo Blue-Green, Antique Bronze, Sunset Gold, Reflex Violet, or Carbon Black over dark bases to increase visual depth.
- For soft pearl finishes: Use Pearl White, Sky Blue, Salmon Pink, Pink Gold, or Grey Lavender for lighter shimmer effects on craft, clay, and mixed-media pieces.
- For custom paint mixing: Blend small amounts into compatible clear mediums to make unique shimmer paints, pearl glazes, metallic accents, and specialty finishes.
