Thanks. Sounds encouraging.

: well you would think that it covers enough to have that effect, honestly the
: stuff its supposed to be white but since i havent been able to see an
: example mixed with epoxy in real or in picture yet, i dont know if it
: stays that way or it becomes semitransparent, judging from the page of a
: producer
:
: http://www.henze-bnp.de/html/eng/industry_applications/plastics/functionall_polymers.php
: the HBN would give freedom of colors for plastics manufacturers since its
: white.
: So i assume (and i know the saying) that that stuff stays white, has enough
: coverage to offer UV protection and the goop can be dyed... at least to a
: point.
: But i already asked someone familiar with it so when ill have an answer ill
: let you know.
