Pick Any 5 Concrete Pigment Colors — 4 oz Each
The ColorBlast™ 5-Color Pigment Set lets you choose any 5 colors from the full ColorBlast Concrete Pigment range, each in a 4 oz pack (by volume). It's the same professional-grade iron oxide concrete pigment used in commercial pours, sized down for projects where you need multiple colors at a manageable scale.
This isn't a watered-down sample kit. Every pack contains the exact same ColorBlast formula sold in the 1, 5, 10, and 25 lb contractor bags — just in a smaller, more flexible format. Mix into concrete, cement, mortar, or stucco for permanent, fade-proof integral color that runs throughout the entire mix.
Choose any 5 colors from earth tones, blacks, whites, reds, and specialty shades. Mix and match to test combinations, run multi-color projects, or stock the colors you reach for most often.
Who Buys the 5-Color Pigment Set
The ColorBlast 5-Color Set has two very different groups of repeat customers — and the product works equally well for both:
Concrete pros and DIYers working on smaller pours where buying full bags doesn't make sense:
- Concrete countertop fabricators testing color formulations
- GFRC casters running small batch projects
- DIYers making cement planters, fire pits, stepping stones, or garden ornaments
- Sample batch testing before committing to a full contractor-scale order
- Color matching and small repairs
Makers and artisans who use iron oxide pigment as a colorant in non-concrete applications:
- Candle makers — iron oxide is heat-stable and won't fade or shift color in wax
- Resin artists — ColorBlast disperses cleanly in epoxy and casting resin
- Cement crafters — vases, planters, sculptures, and decorative castings
- Soap makers — iron oxide is a standard cosmetic-grade colorant
- Paint and coating formulators — small-batch custom color blending
The same professional-grade iron oxide that makes ColorBlast the right choice for a commercial concrete pour also makes it the right choice for a candle, resin casting, or art project. The chemistry doesn't care what you're coloring — it just needs to be UV stable, alkali resistant, and chemically inert. ColorBlast delivers on all three.
What You Get
- 5 × 4 oz packs of ColorBlast™ Concrete Pigment (4 oz by volume) — choose any 5 colors from the full ColorBlast range
- Same formula as the contractor bags — never diluted, never reformulated for "sampler" pricing
- Resealable packaging — store unused pigment without clumping or contamination
Why ColorBlast Iron Oxide Pigment
Whether you're pouring concrete countertops or making candles, the pigment quality matters. Cheap pigments fade in sunlight, bleed into surrounding materials, weaken concrete by interfering with cement hydration, or shift color in heat. ColorBlast is formulated from high-purity synthetic iron oxide — the same standard used in commercial concrete coloring for decades:
- UV stable — Won't fade from sun exposure, indoor or outdoor use
- Alkali resistant — Holds color in the high-pH environment of fresh concrete
- Heat stable — Safe for candle wax and other applications involving heat
- Chemically inert — Won't react with concrete, resin, wax, or cosmetic bases
- Fine particle dispersion — Mixes evenly with no clumping, streaking, or hotspots
- Cosmetic-grade purity — Same iron oxide grade used in soap and cosmetic colorants

How to Use the 5-Color Set
For concrete and cement applications: Pre-blend ColorBlast with dry cement before adding water. Typical loading is 2–5% pigment by weight of cement for medium tones, up to 10% for the deepest saturation. Mix mechanically for the most uniform color.
For candle making: Add ColorBlast directly to melted wax at the stirring stage. Iron oxide is heat-stable up to typical candle wax temperatures (around 180°F) and won't shift color or scent the wax. Start with small dosages (0.5–2% by wax weight) and adjust to taste.
For resin and epoxy art: Add ColorBlast to mixed resin before pouring. Iron oxide disperses well in epoxy and won't interfere with cure. Start at 1–3% by resin weight.
For cement crafts and sculpture: Same dosage rates as concrete (2–10% by cement weight). The 4 oz packs are sized to work with small craft batches without measuring waste.
For repeatable color, weigh both pigment and base (cement, wax, or resin) on a kitchen or jeweler's scale. Iron oxide pigment is consistent batch to batch, so once you find a ratio you like, you can reproduce it exactly.
Need a Larger Quantity?
The 4 oz packs are perfect for small projects, color testing, and craft applications. For larger pours or commercial concrete work, ColorBlast is also sold in 1 lb, 5 lb, 10 lb, and 25 lb repulpable bags with bulk pricing. See ColorBlast™ Concrete Pigment for full sizes and contractor quantities.
