Pigment Pastes: Rich, Deep Ocean Hues

When you’re aiming for bold, vibrant colors with great opacity, Pigment Pastes are your go-to choice.

From deep, moody blues to light, refreshing tones, these pastes are your secret to creating intense, beautiful ocean waves.

Pigment pastes mix effortlessly with your resin, giving you rich, vibrant colors and smooth, even coverage. The best part? You can also buy each color individually to customize your art exactly how you want it.

Why choose Pigment Pastes?

Bold and Vibrant: These pastes give you deep, striking colors - perfect for ocean waves.

If you want your ocean art to stand out with rich, eye-catching colors, these pigment pastes are essential.

Metallic Pigments: Sparkling Waves and Shimmering Foam

If you want to add a touch of magic to your ocean art, Metallic Pigments are the way to go. Our Seawave Metallic Pigment Powder Set includes four metallic shades that shimmer like sunlight on the ocean’s surface. Imagine silvery, pearlescent hues that replicate the foamy crests of waves or the sparkle of light on calm water.

These metallic pigments add a reflective, light-catching effect to your resin art, making your waves look even more dynamic. They're perfect for creating foam, highlights, or subtle touches that bring your ocean piece to life. Plus, just like the pastes, you can buy each color individually for complete creative control.

Our Seawave Liquid Colorant Set offers four carefully selected shades that create stunningly transparent effects, just like clear ocean waters. These liquid colorants are ideal for those serene, delicate ocean scenes where clarity and depth are key.

The liquid form of these colorants allows them to blend effortlessly into your resin, giving your pieces a smooth, transparent finish. They're perfect for creating layered ocean effects or subtle waves that let light shine through. You can also buy each color separately to match your exact vision.

Why choose Liquid Colorants?

Transparency: Perfect for creating clear, layered effects that resemble calm, shallow waters.
