How We Developed Our UV+ Color Correcting Dye

(The Story Behind the Science — and the Stand We Took for Creators)

Hey there — we’re the Milehams.
We’re a family of creators who’ve poured more gallons of epoxy than we can count. We’ve made tumblers in our kitchen, packed orders on our living room floor, and grown a full-blown crafting brand rooted in one belief:
Every dollar matters — and every pour should be protected.

This is the story of why we created Color Correct+UV+Dye, what we saw happening in the industry that made us step up, and how we built a solution that’s rooted in science, not shortcuts.

We Started Seeing a Problem — and It Was Getting Worse

As resin creators ourselves, we’ve spent years testing products, learning the chemistry, and helping others build businesses from their creativity.
But in the past year, we started noticing something shady:
Some epoxy brands were adding purple dye to their resin, without telling customers why.
At first, we thought, “Cool — maybe they’re building in UV protection like we do.”
But the more we tested and researched, the more we realized:

• They weren’t adding real UV inhibitors

• They weren’t adding HALS or UV blockers

• They were just color-correcting cheap resin with a drop of purple

No protection. Just a cover-up.

Why That’s a Problem for You (and Your Wallet)

Here’s the thing: purple dye can make yellowed resin look clear, but it doesn’t stop yellowing.
And if you’re a small business, pouring your heart into orders, art pieces, or inventory?
You’re risking time, money, and reputation on resin that looks fine at first but yellows later, sometimes in just weeks.
As makers ourselves, we knew that was unacceptable.

So We Created the Real Fix: Color Correct+UV+Dye

We wanted to give our community something better. Something honest. Something powerful.
So we partnered with trusted chemists to build a pro-grade additive that combines:

• Color-correcting violet pigment (to neutralize yellow tones)

• True UV protection using:

  • UV Inhibitors (absorb UV light)

  • UV Blockers (scatter and reflect rays)

  • HALS (Hindered Amine Light Stabilizers) that fight photodegradation

• Gloss-enhancing clarity, even on older resin

• Works with ANY epoxy brand

It’s not a gimmick. It’s science-backed, and it saves creators from wasting good material and hard-earned dollars.

We Know the Power of the Dollar

As the Milehams, we don’t come from investors or big warehouses.
We come from the same place, many of you do:

• Starting a business on a budget

• Staying up late fulfilling orders

• Praying your latest restock doesn’t flop

• Counting every supply cost to make sure it still adds up

We made this product because we’re in the same boat.
We don’t want you tossing $60 worth of resin because it looks yellow.
We don’t want you apologizing to a customer because their tray turned orange.
And we definitely don’t want you fooled by brands that use purple dye as a smoke screen.

What We Believe

We believe in clarity — in your resin and in your business.
We believe in giving you the tools to succeed, not just survive.
We believe small businesses deserve real protection, real quality, and real results — not marketing tricks and mystery formulas.
