What Makes the Sparkle?
Metallic epoxies combine durable gloss coats with pigmented undercoats and sparkling metal or mica nanoparticles. In addition to picking different colors of base coatings, you may also decide upon different colored nanoparticles for a variety of special effects. Here are some of the options:
- Iridescence— Imagine the feathers of a hummingbird or peacock and you can picture the effect of iridescence. When applied with epoxy coatings, the floor changes color, based on the source of light or point of view.
- Pearlescence— Akin to iridescence, pearlescence is more subdued in the color change effect, resembling the lustre of abalone shells or pearls. This light effect reminds you of looking through prisms or the vibrance of a rainbow.
- Sparkle— Mica and metallic particles are superb light reflectors. Increase or decrease the amount of sparkle by adjusting the number and size of nanoparticles in the epoxy.
- Gloss— Shine and gloss are tightly related words. Basically, the amount of gloss your floor has tells you approximately how much it will shine. And shine represents the amount of light reflected off a surface. Therefore, the glossier a surface, the more it shines.
- Depth— By skillfully arranging the pigment layers, bunching nanoparticles in some areas as well as leaving fewer in others, our technicians create a sense of three-dimensionality. Depth, movement, waves, currents, atmosphere and more are realized by an artfully designed and executed metallic floor.
