James Clarkson –
Used Faxon Color Mineral in a recent exterior wall coating project. The color stayed vibrant after six months of exposure to sunlight and rain. Easy to mix and performed well with the base resin. No fading or cracking observed.
David Marshall –
Good pigment with consistent color and no clumping during mixing. Works well with our standard epoxy system. Slightly higher than expected cost, but the durability justifies it for long-term projects.
Andrew North –
Excellent UV resistance. After three months in direct sunlight, the color remained true and the surface held up well. No issues with adhesion or texture. Highly recommended for outdoor applications.
