1. What is Mixol?A Universal Tint that can be mixed into many different products. Almost anything that is water, solvent-based, and quality oil-based materials. If you are tinting something transparent like epoxy, your product will stay transparent.The addition of Mixols won’t make a clear material opaque. Some examples of materials to tint: paints, stain, epoxy, glaze, shellac, lacquer, glue, concrete, putty, grout, Venetian plaster, lime-based plasters, and materials like chalk paints, polyurethane, paste wax, Tung oil, varnish, wood fillers, etc... 2. Are Mixols made from Dyes or Pigments?Pigments. The main benefit of a pigment is that the color won't fade, especially in sunlight. Pigments don't dissolve as dyes do. So the higher quality of Mixol helps here, as the pigment size is very tiny and they are not "grainy". Pigments can’t be mixed into just water or alcohol like dyes. Mixols (pigment) need a binder, or product to be added into. Water or Alcohol just isn’t enough. Mixols are made in Germany and are considered the highest quality tint on the US retail market. Mixol sources the highest quality pigments from around the world – mainly throughout Europe and Africa. Mixols are known for their deep color saturation. Mixols have an indefinite shelf life – they will never dry out or harden over time. Even after they are opened. Mixols are resistant to heat or freezing issues. Can be kept in a work van with no worries of the temperatures. Show more
