    Check out their instructions - Unless you figure out how to cut it down to smaller quantities you could end up wasting some. 1/2 lb of powder at a time is alot.

    Uses in Powder Coating clears
    1. Candy Pearls
    Our candy pearls should never be mixed with less than
    ½ pound per 25 grams of our powder. DO NOT HOLD
    THE BAG DIRECTLY OVER YOUR CLEAR POWDER,
    as the outside of any bags may contain contaminants
    that could effect your final result. Candy pearls should
    not be baked at temperatures over 400 degrees
    Fahrenheit. Follow the instructions of your clear powder
    for best baking results.
    2. Flakes
    Flakes are versatile, so they can be mixed at as little as
    a 1/40 ratio into your clear powders. Some powder
    coaters have had success mixing our flakes directly into
    colored powders. For more optical effects, mix with clear
    powders. Do not bake our flakes at temperatures over
    400 degrees Fahrenheit.
    3. “Ghost” pearls
    Over a white base, they can be applied as heavy as 1
    bag per ½ pound of powdered clear. Over darker base
    coats to create special effects, as little as ¼ ounce per
    pound can be used. It is important to do a test panel to
    get the desired consistency before applying to your
    project. Ghost pearls can be baked at any temperature
    up to 1600 degree Fahrenheit.

    Best bet send them a message and tell them how you want to use it and use their knowledge to save yourself some time
