Adding Color Changing Powder to Silicone?

[Elizzabeth]

i recently found this powder/pigment

theres a few things i can see going wrong. The silicone might not cure right and in my head for some reason i'm thinking that the color might not even change if its mixed with silicone.

If it's pure pigment there shouldn't be problem with silicone but maybe it won't change color as I see it's a thermal dust

yeaah. x.x
maybe if i do thin coats of it. hmm.
might just have to do testers to see really, but thank you for replying ^.^

Maybe doing layers of coats can be the right solution and yes some tests can help understanding how it will react.
You're welcome dear 😊

I am making a color changing tail and have had success with samples using pigments the powder can not be left in direct uv for to long will lose its color change properties over time....

I just ordered these same pigments if you watch the videos they have already used these in silicone and they worked :)
