Mirror pigment: A pigment powder is made by the hologram effect reflecting the rainbow-shaped light and changes color depending on the angle with light. Holography occurs when light waves are recorded at different angles, resulting in a three-dimensional image being reflected from a two-dimensional surface.Holographic pigments work much better than traditional metallic pigments. Holographic pigments disperse better in the resins and provide a brighter more reflective surface than traditional aluminum metal flake pigments. The holographic pearlescent pigments provide a vibrant color changing effect as light strikes the surface of cured resins.
