BENDA-LUTZ® 12062 EA is high performance leafing aluminium paste in ethyl acetate. The new generation of BENDA-LUTZ high performance leafing aluminium paste is characterized by further improved brightness, better opacity and impressive chrome optics. Due to the improved pigment surface and particle size distribution the polychromatic effect can be achieved much purer in combination with transparent coloured pigments. HP-Leafing Pigments show the quality standard of metallic-pigments for leafing types.

BENDA-LUTZ® 6042 TB/SN aluminium paste, non-leafing aluminium pigments distribute themselves evenly throughout the paint film and thus reflect incident light at multiple locations. For this reason, these pigments are highly suitable for tinted paints such as colored metallic automotive paints or tinted hammer-effect enamels. Non-leafing pigments are also preferred for applications requiring excellent adhesion, such as primers.

BENDA-LUTZ® G 1251 TB COPPER is copper paste in white spirit, 9-11 micron, gold color for solvent borne coatings applications. BENDA-LUTZ® Goldbronze and Copper pigments consist of brass (copper-tin-alloy) or pure copper, and have the noblest golden hues in different color shades. Depending on the alloy the shades vary from a pale yellow to a tempered reddish gold. Goldbronze pigments are regularly available in Rich Gold, Rich Pale Gold, Pale Gold and Copper. With BENDA-LUTZ® goldbronze and copper pigments one can achieve gold shades that thanks to their deep luster add an exclusive touch to many objects. It must be pointed out that due to the relatively high availability of copper to react chemically, the color runs the risk of turning a greenish-brown. This can be avoided by choosing the appropriate resin and suitable application.
