What Creates the Sparkle?
California Custom Coatings creates your customized metallic epoxy by combining colorful undercoatings with specially made mica or metal nanoparticles. In addition to picking the colors of the epoxies, you also choose the colors, sizes, and types of sparkling flakes. Applying these options, here are the effects we can create:
- Sparkle— Mica and metallic particles are remarkable light reflectors. Decrease or increase the sparkle by altering the number and size of nanoparticles in the epoxy.
- Iridescence— Imagine the feathers of a hummingbird and you can imagine the effect of iridescence. When applied on epoxy coatings, the floor changes color, based on the source of light or point of view.
- Pearlescence— Similar to iridescence, pearlescence is more subdued with the color altering effect, resembling the luster of abalone or pearls. This light effect reminds you of looking through a prism or the vibrance of rainbows.
- Depth— By skillfully shaping the pigment layers, gathering nanoparticles in some areas while at the same time leaving fewer in others, our craftworkers create a sense of 3D. Depth, motion, waves, current, atmosphere and more are realized by an artfully designed and executed metallic floor.
- Gloss— Gloss and shine are tightly related words. In effect, the amount of gloss the floor has, tells you exactly how much it will shine. And shine represents the amount of light reflected from the surface. Thus, the glossier a surface, the more it shines.
