On our many visits to our clients in the film industry we noticed that many paint shops were using Mixol and it had many advocates that were confused as to why we didn't stock it. 

We already have many pigment options but fans of Mixol raved about how intense the pigments were, how little you need to use and the fact that you can stick it in anything!

Although these tinters are pretty much universal in practice it's always worth testing by mixing up a small batch before beginning your work in earnest. If you are using Mixol for the first time or using it to tint non standard paints we would highly recommend that you buy the small sample pots of 20 ml to test before investing in the 200ml tubs. 

Use the Metallic Effect Tints to create finishes with just a touch of metallic shimmer or opaque solid colour depending on how much you add to the total mix. Add up to 10% of total mix for clear coatings, adding in a little at a time until you have the desired effect. 

Can be used with the other Mixol tints but only the non oxide colours (Oxide colours have a red top, and also labelled 'oxide'). The oxide colours are mineral based and severely dull the shimmer effect.
